Anderson Cooper Says He ‘Muted’ Trump on Twitter

CNN anchor Anderson Cooper told late night talk show host Stephen Colbert on Monday that he has muted President Donald Trump on Twitter.

Colbert first asked Cooper how his weekend was. Cooper said he had traveled to film a "60 Minutes" report before describing how he does not see the president's tweets anymore.

"I've actually muted the president on Twitter," Cooper said. "Don't tell him. I muted him."

"What? You can do that?" Colbert asked.

"Yeah, you know, when you get annoying people tweeting you, you don't want to delete because then that tells them you've deleted them," Cooper said. "So if you just mute them they think you're still following them, and you don't actually see their tweets."

Cooper then explained that he had not seen Trump's tweets over the weekend until he got back to work

"I get back on Sunday and I finally turn on my phone again. I'm like, ‘What!'" Cooper said, referencing Trump's accusation that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower.

Cooper went on to say that CNN is an objective news source, Newsbusters reports, also noting some of Cooper's past praise for Obama.

Of course he ignores the President’s twitter feed.

It makes it so much more difficult to spread fake news if you have knowledge of accurate source data.

The eye that alters, alters all. William Blake.

Pooper has such warped emotions from child abuse, he couldn’t handle the Truth. Truth creates cognitive dissonance like it does to the brainwashed snowflakes. He was probably a conditioned/raped/trotured MK Ultra kid because of his satanic bloodline. He is a CIA operative anyhow, to control the Narrative for the ignorant brainwashed masses. He promote lies and disinformation and flips Good and Evil (for the children).

Got to normalize vice to destroy cultures, the Natural family and the minds of little children who are raised away from their biological parents so they will be unable to embed natural instincts and understanding of Truth (Reality). Have to put them in artificial indoctrination institutions of “group-think”—away from their mother and father and Natural environment so they can easily be warped and seduced into irrational satanism/atheism.

I’m not sure if Anderson Cooper wants to do that. You want to know what the important newsmakers are doing, not have it filtered through your fellow co-workers at CNN.

Gee its called ..not following.
You get a twitter account you start not following anyone

You have to follow some one to get the tweets just like you have to turn the channel to CNN or CBS

Trump’s social media is now increasing at over 1 million subscribers per month. He will have 60 million subscribers by end of year and a projected 80-100 million by end of his first term.

Anderson has really made an impact by muting Trump!/sarc

That’s equivalent to tearing up your Press Credentials, or entrenching your position as a non news source.

Surprised no one mentioned his arrogance. Trump has 26.2 million followers and Anderson Cooper honestly thinks that Trump would notice if he stopped following? The conclusion of this thought is a serious disconnected from reality and arrogant.
