CNN cut short the network’s town hall with President Trump Wednesday night by twenty minutes after Trump, backed by a wildly supportive audience (hand picked by CNN), took control of the forum from anchor Kaitlan Collins right from the start and never let up. The live event at St. Anselm College in New Hampshire was scheduled to run from 8 p.m. EDT until 9:30 p.m., however right before 9:10 p.m. Collins abruptly ended the town hall.
An intro to a live thread by the Telegraph documented the scheduled length of the town hall:
Good evening. Follow our updates as Donald Trump participates in a ‘town hall’ during which he will face questions from a live audience. The 90-minute event comes one day after a civil jury found the former US President liable for the sexual abuse of writer E Jean Carroll. Mr Trump reacted to that finding by posting on his Truth Social app that the case was a “witch hunt” and that he had “absolutely no idea who this woman is”. Expect further defensive comments when Mr Trump takes the stage in New Hampshire tonight. The event will be moderated by former chief White House correspondent and CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins. Puck’s Dylan Byers reported on CNN cutting the town hall short, “Note: The CNN Town Hall was a 90 minute broadcast, though the network expected the actual event to go as long as 75 minutes. They stopped less than 70 minutes in. In other words, they could have gone longer if they wanted—which is usually what executives do with big ratings draws”

i just watched and that poor woman left the forum rethinking her choice of careers.
Trump had the support of everyone in that room, but her, and at the end she was on the fence.
he missed a few opportunities to shut her down more, like when she referred to the bloody insurrection.
here is the reason for the rally, the peaceful rally.

CNN shut down early, because it was a great commercial for the trump campaign
Bkmrk
I hear the CNN broadcast has been censored by youtube but you can watch replays on bitchute and rumble.
From the two clips I saw; that Collins chick reminded me of the female hiker at the beginning of ‘Cocaine Bear’...Trump was the bear.
Trump: Still the worst judge of character that ever lived. His hatred of CNN is the closest he’s ever come to a correct character judgment.
CNN waved the white flag early. LOL.
hehehe... trump was the bear, indeed.
with 75% of republicans believing in 2020 election tampering, jake needs to do more than calling trump a liar.
crying on live television will not cut it.
UNCLE!!!!!!!
I saw that if we aren’t already living in a Communist country we will soon be if this media gets its way.
Shortly before they ended the town hall, their so called moderator was also cutting Trump short because she was claiming that he was making false statements.
To my knowledge, she was the one making full statements, stating that what Biden did with classified documents was perfectly OK and that trump was mistating the presidential records act, whereas his interpretation was perfectly legitimate To my knowledge, she was the one making full statements, stating that what Biden did with classified documents was perfectly OK and that trump was mistating the presidential records act, whereas his interpretation was perfectly legitimate.

Because they were done bringing up the bs charges. They needed to talk about policy. I missed it but did they bring up the border.
CNN tried to save a sinking ship; never underestimate your adversary. Trump is a dynamic genius.
Can anyone confirm this?
