Trump Hijacks CNN, Steamrolls Kaitlan Collins in New Hampshire Townhall: ‘You Are a Nasty Person’
Breitbart ^ | 10 May 2023 | HANNAH BLEAU

Posted on 05/10/2023 6:55:58 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Former President Donald Trump steamrolled CNN’s Kaitlan Collins during Wednesday’s Town Hall event in New Hampshire, dismissing her politically biased and outdated questions, effectively reducing her role as the moderator by speaking directly to the audience about the “gotcha” topics a visibly irritated Collins continually posed throughout the night.

The highly anticipated town hall event, teased by Trump, proved to bode well for the former president, despite Collins’ attempt to begin the town hall event with a series of contentious topics and arguably outdated leftist narratives — from the 2020 election results to January 6 to accusations in the E. Jean Carroll case. Notably, Trump received a standing ovation at his introduction.

Collins kicked off the townhall event by focusing on the past election and election fraud claims. Trump made it clear, despite Collins’ implications otherwise, that he cherishes the Constitution, emphasizing the importance of living up to it.

“I mean, we have elections. We have open borders, look at what’s happening on our southern border,” Trump said, pivoting to more pressing subjects such as illegal immigration as Collins, at this point in the townhall, continued to press him on the 2020 presidential election.

“They’re being released from prisons. They’re being released from mental institutions, and we have millions of people pouring into our country, and now they’re getting rid of Title 42, which I put on,” he said as a visibly irritated Collins contended there would be questions on that topic later.

From there, Collins brought up another favorite leftist topic: January 6.

Biden put out a statement. He said, “do you want 4 more years of that?’ I didn’t watch. Too busy living life. Went out with another couple for dinner. But it seems like the president isn’t worried.

>> Trump hasn’t lost a step, nothing. The guy is flat out amazing.

Indeed. He has UPPED his game!

Did you see his interview with Steve Bannon?

One thing that impressed me is that there was not a *trace* of bitterness after all the evil that has been arrayed against him by his enemies. He pushes back, yes, but rationally and without rancor.

“Trump hasn’t lost a step, nothing.”

He should have never gone on CNN. It was a setup. He gained nothing.

Well, I see I touched you where you’re tender. Are you mad that RdS can keep your cash that I referred to? This has everything to do with the town hall. As I said, Trump, AS EVIDENCED TONIGHT, has lost nothing. Trump, AS EVIDENCED TONIGHT, will have no problem securing the nomination. I do want to thank you for doing your best to attempt to Karen me for having an opinion about Trump’s performance today.

“But I was pleasantly surprised that the audience seemed to be mostly pro-Trump. “

Appeared about one-half. But the townhall was just a prelude to the main event, the CNN analysis panel.

Being not Trump is no skill at all, no true qualification. But Brandon acts as if it is.

Maybe you should have watched it. Trump ate those CNN hacks for dinner. Was this laughable take of yours some kind of lame defense of RdS?

Oh please. You don’t care about President Trump, except to denigrate him. Every. Step. He. Takes.

You and all the rest of the ‘rats.

Grow up.

I’m watching Newsmax TV waiting for Greg Kelly talk about something other than Biden. It’s 7:26 PST. Still waiting. If not they’re no better than CNN.

Trump is the only one I like to see go on shows on CNN. He has no fear and gives much better than he is served.

Sure ya did ! Biden’s not worried you say? Biden was asleep along time ago. But you sure seem to have your panties in a wad.

Trump hasn’t lost a step, nothing. The guy is flat out amazing. RdS still has time to cut and run before he Jeb!s his chances in ‘28 and beyond. RdS is dead in the water, one on one vs. Trump. I assume RdS can keep all that Uniparty cash he’s collected to date.

Something tells me in the next week Sanctus will decide not to run, without mentioning the real reasons you named above.

The audience appears to be glad he went..
Trump triggered CNN on CNN, too.
With hundreds of his supporters/voters in the audience.

One’s mileage may vary,though, depending on the TDS drain on their battery..
