CNN host Kasie Hunt cuts off interview with Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt for attacking debate moderator Jake Tapper

CNN host Kasie Hunt abruptly ended an interview with Donald Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Monday morning after she repeatedly bashed her colleague Jake Tapper.

With three days to go until the first presidential debate, Hunt asked Leavitt how the Republican was preparing for his showdown with President Joe Biden.

Leavitt accused Biden of ‘hiding away’ while Trump was preparing to ‘go into a hostile environment on this very network with debate moderators who have made their opinions about him very well known over the past eight years.’

She said Tapper and Dana Bash are ‘biased’, prompting Hunt to jump in and insist they were ‘professional’.

Hunt warned Leavitt she would shut down the interview if she kept targeting Tapper and Bash, then asked if the bar for the debate was set ‘low’ for Trump.

‘Well, first of all, it takes someone five minutes to Google Jake Tapper, Donald Trump to see that Jake Tapper…’, Leavitt began.

Hunt cut her off and said she was welcome to return to speak about Donald Trump.

Hunt then tweeted: 'You come on my show, you respect my colleagues. Period. I don’t care what side of the aisle you stand on, as my track record clearly shows.'

They are planning on cutting Trump’s mic in the debate too.

Biden will be a spectator while the moderators argue with Trump.

She’s definitely one of the lesser hacks. She seemed genuinely upset. Its possible to be much more smooth when being a censor

Ms. Hunt, your colleagues deserve NO respect. They are leftwing propagandists who are lower thang dung beetle dung.

This is why I am still infuriated that Trump stepped right into their trap. Again, I’ll repeat it again and again Trump was holding the winning cards and he just gave them freely to Satan‘s base. He got absolutely nothing in the negotiation trap. I am telling you, whoever is advising Trump even if he put his big foot in his mouth should be fired. Common sense tells you not give Satan an inch. He could’ve easily gotten out of this monstrosity hit job debate by demanding that the rest of the candidates be present on the stage also.

Hell, aren’t they the ones that keep talking about democracy? Flip the freaking tables on them. But no like a big man he always wants to do things that usually get him into a little bit of hot water. How do I know his team is full of idiots? A few days ago, they were hawking the green cards for illegal college students which was recanted immediately after it made the airwaves….dummies ! That’s what I’m talking about. He needs to clean camp. I for one will not be watching this sham evil hit job debate on Thursday. Not worth my time watching our beloved candidate being used as a punching bag by these pieces of chit communist Marxist anti-American anti-God, worthless, fake mediapuke moderators ..NOPE can’t do it! I can’t bring myself to watching.

To pick an extreme example ... Josef Goebbels was professional.

I suspect they laid down ‘rules’ for the debate in such a way as to favor Biden, thinking Trump would never accept those rules. Then they could say “Trump is afraid to debate him”

But Trump said ‘OK’ and now they are wetting their pants.
