A Trump Infomercial’: Backlash Erupts Against CNN for Hosting the Former President
Breitbart ^

Posted on 05/10/2023 7:38:43 PM PDT by janetjanet998

CNN faced backlash from opponents of former President Donald Trump for hosting him in a town hall on the network Wednesday, charging that they gave him a stage.

“CNN should be ashamed of themselves,” lamented socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). “They have lost total control of this ‘town hall’ to again be manipulated into platforming election disinformation, defenses of Jan 6th, and a public attack on a sexual abuse victim. The audience is cheering him on and laughing at the host.”

So a planned CNN ambush to take down Trump became a Trump takeover and the Left is crying.

Donald Trump is the Indispensable Man for our time.

He is the only one who even wants to do what needs to be done

....uhm, democracy dies in darkness.
The left had an opportunity to destroy Trump but the left instead was destroyed.
Had the town hall gone a different way Cortez would be cheering

The video of the Degenerate Rick Wilson was priceless.

LOL! Four f-bombs and two s-words in a bit over one minute. That's real class there, Rick!

” Simple, because that is where the enemy is and the first rule of warfare is that you take the war to them, on their territory. You don’t wait for a known enemy to bring the war to your territory. “

Looking back at what I wrote, it might be unclear that I agreed with his strategy to appear. I was not one of those who thought it was a bad idea.

We didn’t watch live to avoid being counted in CNN’s ratings, but saw enough clips to see that he was in fine form, and LOVED when he made his off-the-cuff assessment of the host near the end. He did what he does best. The whining and outrage expressed by the left were icing on the cake.

I’ll bet CNN’s ratings were up as Prez Trump suggested, by his appearance.

Motor Mouth Ocasio-Cortez, the biggest leftist fake in Congress, wants to shut Trump up, depriving him of access to the media and his right to speak.

“These fools at CNN can’t see past the advertising $$$, LOL!”

Maybe not fools. Trump is a media gold mine, and the gold will flow even more if he becomes president.

Once again Trump lets the Physio paths revel them selves and how far away from reality they are.

“I want everybody to stop dying. They’re dying. Russians and Ukrainians. I want them to stop dying,” Trump said at CNN’s town hall moderated by “CNN This Morning” anchor Kaitlan Collins. “And I’ll have that done in 24 hours.”

Maybe an exaggeration, but I would feel a lot better with Trump in charge, for the world's sake.

One thing for sure, he won’t exploit the situation for his own nefarious purposes, to deplete US resources so that China can just waltz on in to Taiwan, the way Brandon is doing. He’ll be doing exactly what he said, or at least trying in good faith.

The host is toast....so overbearing, condescending and told many lies herself. No sense of humor; not at all likeable.
