CNN anchor Anderson Cooper denied on Monday night that he's "on the left," but later slammed President Donald Trump for weighing in on the Kentucky Derby.

Cooper began a panel discussion by speculating whether or not President Trump would accept the results of the 2020 election if he narrowly loses that quickly shifted to whether or not an "attempted coup" took place to oust the president.

"There absolutely was an attempted coup against him," CNN commentator Steve Cortes said.

If a homofascist like Anderson Pooper doesn’t think he’s on The Left it’s only because he thinks Antifa Marxists are moderates.

I’m not on the left. I don’t like Cooper. And I didn’t like Trumps derby tweet. I saw that horse get out of its lane and I thought what gives, he’s blocking the others. Anyway, I voted for Trump to fix the border and build the wall. When exactly is that going to happen?

Probably when the Republican party begins to support MAGA (but don't hold your breath).

You seem to believe Trump can simply pick up the phone and hire a construction co. To begin building the wall. Or perhaps you believe he has the powers of a dictator?

My guess is ndersta ding is contracts have been signed and constructionwill soon begin.

He’s sort of correct. He’s not really “on the left,” he is the left. If the left were a ship, he would be on the crew and not a passenger.

Why don’t you start calling or emailing any legislatures in your state or in other parts of the government that are blocking his efforts instead of bellyaching? I sent an email to one of the top rinos in my state when he was going against POTUS, as well as others, and at the last minute he changed his mind. Of course bellyaching is so much easier isn’t it?

“didn’t win because of an old-timey rule?”

wasn’t it the first disqualification in Kentucky Derby history?

I don’t have a horse in this race. Didn’t watch the Derby. Didn’t place a bet.

I did view the gif yesterday. Saw the winning horse also prevent the #1 horse (the one slighted by Max Security) from carrying on.

I’ve never bet on a horse race in my life.
Trump has owned casinos. I assume he’s been to the track too.

Trump’s tweet neither supports or refutes Anderson Pooper’s ties to Leftists for saying “wow oh wow” to claims that the “Russiagate” conspiracy was all a silent coup.

If you haven’t noticed, the President has been getting flack from all sides trying to do his job. You should call Mitch McConnell and ask him why our borders are sealed tight.

Trump allowed Mitch (and Ryan) to lead him around for his first two years. When the GOP had control of both houses, he allowed Mitch and Ryan to prioritize their agenda, not his.

And he’s still wasting time on derby tweets

Being leftist is like having a thick political speech accent. If everyone around you has the same thick accent then the “normal” accent most Americans have sounds awful to them when they are the outliers.

Criticism of Trumps tweets about the Derby are fair game. But so are Obamas March Madness brackets.

People have the right to be wrong about economics but a little intellectual honesty seems to be way to much to ask these days.
