Despite an audience that was friendly to the candidate, CNN’s recent town hall hosting Donald Trump was anything but an effort to inform independent and Republican voters about the candidate’s position on the substantial issues faced by struggling Americans. It was a hedonistic exercise to satiate its left-wing producers’ and viewers’ desire to emphasize all the criticisms that CNN talking heads have been levying against him since 2020.
CNN certainly didn’t expect that Trump would simply concede to all the nonsense that they’ve been unsuccessfully peddling to Americans these past few years. He wasn’t going to say that he’s really sorry for purposefully stoking an insurrection that was worse than 9/11, or that he’d suddenly come to realize that the 2020 election was all on the up and up, or that, despite the worst inflation in decades, a massive invasion of aliens illegally crossing our borders, and the planet being on the brink of World War III, his successor is actually doing a bang-up job in the White House.
The CNN brass got exactly what they expected, though, which was peak ratings. As a medium for information delivery, cable news is clearly dying. But for a brief moment, CNN got to feel like Fox News felt nightly in the Tucker Carlson hour of prime time. Over three million Americans tuned in to watch Trump do what Trump has always done, which is to defend himself against hostile corporate media. Most of them tuned in to be entertained, and they weren’t disappointed.

No matter HOW much qwap, dirt, filth and accusation the leftist progressives throw at President Donald Trump...nothing sticks to the teflon Don simply because Truth is slicker than lies. And the leftists and neverTrumpers CAN’T STAND IT!
Election law should be followed! These media outlets should be stating in the text of the chyron “This broadcast is a DONATION IN KIND to the DEMOCRAT party.” All of the lawsuits against Trump should be handled the same way in filings with the election commission that they are donation in kind to the rat party.
What we need most now is a fighter. Other things come afterwards.....................
The proverbial “bull in a china shop” meme of Donald Trump busting up the fixtures and merchandise sure fit the surprising show that he put on with CNN.
The moderator, Kaitlin Collins, just kept on asking him the wrong questions over and over, and being the force of nature he is, he whipped through like a Kansas tornado. And got cheered on throughout the whole performance.
It was a shock to Anderson Cooper. So called MAGA Republicans are not the evil fringe group that democrats and their media wants everyone to believe. It about half the country. Between constant anti-Trump messaging from the media and prime time congressional tv productions and “red” speeches from Joe Blow, not everyone is fooled.
The machines were not "hacked." They were programmed originally to transfer probably 5% of Republican votes to the Democrats. That was not enough in some precincts but enough overall to make the difference. Add in the Mules and vote harvesting and the high Xerox vote and the cemetery and vicarious nursing home vote and the Post Office deliveries and it is likely that Trump actually had a very large majority of the popular vote.
The truth is a powerful weapon.
She was arguing with Trump most of the time.
It seemed like she was out there debating with Trump, as opposed to being a dispassionate moderator of a political town hall event.
President Trump is definitely “our” bully and that is ultimately what this is all about. obama, clinton and biden were and are bullies too just for the enemy.
Totally agree...The ONLY people who should be allowed mail-in votes are overseas military personnel....
The issue with Trump is, is he capable of forming an administration that will govern the nation in the way it must be governed to restore us to greatness?
The history of 2017-2021 is not at all encouraging.
She was arguing with Trump most of the time.
But that’s why they used her. They were waiting, desperately trying, to get him to go after her. Then every story would be about how he treated young Kaitlin, who was just trying to get to the truth.
CNN: We told you he was misogynistic savage, look how he treated our female moderator.
Somehow, they’d figure out a way to get a case, filed by Collins, into a NYC courtroom even though the whole thing happened in NH.
obama clinton biden are sissy bullies. They need all of the MSM, FBI, DOJ, Judeges and all kinds cheaters and lawyers behind them.. and even then they are still barely keeping it together.
Probably because the represent about 20-40% of the “American” people. And most of the 20-40% are paid in one way or another with OPM.
CNN got to feel like Fox News felt nightly in the Tucker Carlson.
The sting of truth is a mighty thing the left can never cover it up or white wash it it’s always still there it’s the simpletons who are the sheep.
3.1 million viewers according to the reports. That's really the funniest thing about this.
BTTT
Nice list.
You left off Jared Kushner.
