Hatred in her eyes! Trump suddenly starts berating CNN’s Kaitlan Collins during fiery Oval Office Q&A
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
President Donald Trump started berating CNN’s Kaitlan Collins while answering a question from another reporter in the Oval Office on Wednesday.
Trump’s attack on Collins came shortly after he was asked why he “decided to drop the Anti-Weaponization fund” that the Department of Justice was supposed to drop after the president settled a $10 billion lawsuit he had brought against the IRS.
“So, I love it. I think it’s so important…What happened to great people, great American people, the way they were victimized, the way they were savaged, you have suicides, they killed themselves. They were bankrupt,” replied Trump. “They were weaponized by the Biden administration, by a bunch of thugs, including Obama people. And like nobody’s probably ever been. I mean, I can think of maybe two instances in this country where they’ve had it to somewhere that extent. I’m not even sure if it was so much. They were put in jail for long periods of time. They were accused of things that never happened. They had prosecutors that were radical lunatics, and their lives were destroyed. And frankly, we had a lawsuit that-, against us on the, you know, on the weaponization where the judge, a radical left judge, ruled against it. And we’ll see how that all works out. But a radical left judge ruled against it.”
He continued:
But these people, their lives have been destroyed. Their families have been destroyed — many of them. I’m not just talking about a few people. Many have been destroyed, many of them. I’m not just talking about a few people. Many of them. I’m one of them, I look, they raided my house, Mar-a-Lago. That never happened. Nobody ever thought of anything like that. It turned out that it was a total fake. Everything about it was fake and corrupt. We have all the information here. The good advantage that sitting here is we can get information that you wouldn’t get by-, what we have and what we are going to be showing over the coming weeks and months you’re not even going to believe. Some of you will believe it, like CNN will believe is because they knew what was going on. They’re crooked as hell. CNN’s a very corrupt organization, but-, with a corrupt reporter standing right there. Never smiles. You never-, she’s a young, beautiful woman. Never smiles, I never see a smile off her face, I see her standing there with hatred in her eyes. She has hatred because we have borders, because we have a strong military, because we cut our taxes, because we do things that everybody wanted. And then we win our election in a massive landslide. We win 87% of the counties in this country. Nobody’s ever heard of a thing like that. And that’s because we’re doing the right job. And we took a detour down to Iran because we can’t let Iran have a nuclear weapon under any circumstances. We can’t let that happen. So the reporters should be happy. They shouldn’t be unhappy. They should be very happy. Because you know what we’re doing? We’re saving our country.
In a statement obtained by Mediaite, a CNN spokesperson said, “Kaitlan Collins is an exceptional journalist, reporting every day from the White House and the field with real depth and tenacity. She skillfully brings that reporting to the anchor chair and CNN platforms every day, which audiences around the world know they can trust.”

American media is betraying our country through their general indifference to Trumps insanity.
This is as an insane a statement as anything Trump has said.
The idea that the media is "indifferent" to Trump is pure anti-reality.
If the media weren't indifferent to Trump he would be gone from office already.
1. you vastly overestimate the power of the media.
2. Their obsessive hatred of him (to the point of losing all credibility with "Biden is fine" reporting) backfired and may have even helped him. The more over the top anti-trump and partisan their coverage gets the less effect it has.
They seem to be finally coming to the realization of that and their changes of direction to maybe become more balanced news and less activism is a result.
Not MSNBC and CNN obviously.
Have you been watching CNN and MSNBC lately?
Your comments are absolutely ridiculous, although to be fair not much more ridiculous than they have been for the last 10 years.
You are claiming Donald Trump is the victim of a hateful obsession , and you should be ashamed of yourself.
All I see media doing is licking his shoes and kissing his butt
Not surprised.
You are claiming Donald Trump is the victim of a hateful obsession , and you should be ashamed of yourself.
he clearly is. You can argue about whether it’s justified, but to claim it doesn’t exist is flat out denial of reality. Claiming the mainstream media, democrat to almost a person, is indifferent, or even more batshit crazily, supports trump, is just disqualifying.
And the same can be said of Hitler I suppose. Does everyone, especially our Jewish friends have 'HDS'? Hitler Derangement Syndrome simply because we collectively despise the things he did? Should the MSM be attacked for not being more non-biased when it comes to covering the holocaust? I'm sure many rightwing conservatives think so considering they welcome white nationalists, white supremacists and Neo-Nazi's who share their xenophobic anti-immigrant, anti-liberal, anti-lgtbq ideology.
Should anyone else feel bad about being openly against Hitler just because some sad demented racist misogynists still worship him? Nope. And no one should feel bad or guilty about being openly against a convicted felon, proven sexual predator, adulterer, liar and accused pedophile just because some sad demented racist misogynists worship him.
Do we expect our journalists to remain neutral when interviewing convicted criminals? Should anyone interviewing Charlie Manson just give him the benefit of the doubt and say "Well, Charlie says he didn't do anything, so that's good enough for me..."? Being "un-biased" towards convicted felons and known liars is just stupid, but again, par for the course in the MAGAverse.
Kaitlan Collins was questioning a convicted felon and known liar. Anyone attacking her instead of the crooked piece of shit projecting and falsely accusing her of being crooked needs to have their heads examined because it's either completely empty or packed full of misogynist Trump feces.
The US "media", lets call it the white house press corp for the moment, has never to my knowledge questioned Trump about the massive financial corruption taking place in his administration for his personal benefit. I call that journalistic malpractice and well, betrayal.
Every now and then, or as often as needed, Tig posts a fairly long list of Trumps known trangressions, including his attempt to overthrow the 2020 election (and a lot else). The media never asks him about his lies about the 2020 election. The media has never asked him exactly what was he doing during the J6 riot other than calling right wing members of Congress to try and get them to go along with the Eastman plan. His staff and children were begging him to act to end the riot. There is no evidence he acted to end the riot, which is not surprising since he wanted it to succeed. The media has never questioned him about this - 5 1/2 years later and they have never asked him about it.
The media has "gone after" Trump with flimsy kid gloves.
And the strongest reply from Trump supporters is 'nuh-uh'.
I would love to hear one of them ask "Mr. President, how do you feel about a former Democrat and convicted felon suing the government for indicting him and trying to set up a multi-billion-dollar slush fund to pay off other violent convicted criminals and fellow criminal conspirators?". Would he even be smart enough to know they were talking about him? I'm not so sure he wouldn't latch on to the "former Democrat" part and start attacking calling them a loser that should be thrown in jail.
like their incompetent hero, all most maga can do is deflect and attack when asked a question that they can't answer ...
Trump tells the White House media that the slush fund is a good idea and they say "ok".
Perfect. now the people who claim the media treats Trump fairly are equating him to Hitler. It's like you are trying to prove my point.
Did you ever even pause and think, for a second, "Wow, maybe it's a little crazy to equate a guy who murdered six million people and started a war that killed tens of millions more with a guy who said things I find offensive and whose criminal record consists of a partisan conviction for the same crime his opponent committed but wasn't charged for?"
Which msm reporter said Trump's slush fund was okay? But while we are on the topic of slush funds, show me which MSM reporters pushed back against Democrats when they opposed the Republican bill to ban them?
but, but, but, what about ...
Shouldnt reporters be asking the president how he and his family are making billions of dollars while he president?
I don't know what questions were asked. I don't see the transcript. It looks like they challenged him over the anti-weaponization fund. Isn't that what you want?
The standard progressive talking point when Hunter Biden's corruption came up what was that no one voted for Hunter Biden so it doesn't matter and its nobody's business. When did progressives' principles on the subject change?
You're the one who said, " You can argue about whether it’s justified". I'm arguing it's justified. I and millions of other patriotic Americans that aren't groveling before the narcissistic man baby convicted felon accept facts and reality and don't believe the bullshit conspiracy theories of the too stupid for words MAGAites desperately trying to defend the dear Leader they worship. Pointing out that other groups of deranged white nationalist bigots did the same for their dear Leader in the past shouldn't come as any surprise and seems rather rational to those with more than half a brain. Only those with their metaphorical necks squeezed and blood flow to the brain cut off by their dear Leaders balloon knot would be whining about others noticing the authoritarian direction their dear Leader is trying to take the country.
By equating him to Hitler...
I know that plays in blueanon land but to everyone else its just a sign that someone is unhinged.
"Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it"
Democrats have been hysterically calling pretty much every Republican since Thomas Dewey a Nazi. If anyone needs to learn that....
‘You are claiming Donald Trump is the victim of a hateful obsession’
Have you read your posts?
‘Trump tells the White House media that the slush fund is a good idea and they say "ok". ’
Where is your poutrage over the Congressional slush fund that congress uses to pay off women they sexually harass, among other things.
No doubt there is a substantial number of democrats that have used this fund.
‘Democrats have been hysterically calling pretty much every Republican since Thomas Dewey a Nazi. If anyone needs to learn that....’
And they will call the next republican nominee/president a nazi, Hitler and worst than Trump.
The lack of self awareness is blinding when they have an ACTUAL nazi they are defending
Deflection @1.1.26, @1.1.24 and @1.1.25
Do you recognize that Trump is the reason for high prices (especially gas) and that higher energy prices will work through our system and raise prices across the board? And this is on top of the effects of his brain-dead tariffs.
Do you recognize that Trump illegally started a war with Iran and has no clue how to get us even back to square zero? He has cost billions in taxpayer dollars, killed thousands of people, further alienated our allies, further disgraced our nation, and the net gain is negative.
We heard in 2024 that desantis is actually worse than trump. It’s all so tiresome.
If it walks like a duck...
The fact is that those whining about the comparison are clearly confused about which Hitler he's being compared to. He's not yet near the desperate suicidal mass murderer who had already ordered the genocide of the Jews and anyone who dared oppose him. No one is comparing him to that Hitler. The comparisons come from much earlier in Hitler's populist career which is clearly being mirrored by one of his fans today.
Now, you can call former chief of staff John Kelly, a retired four-star Marine general and former commander of U.S. Southern Command, a liar if you want to like Trump and his boot lickers did, but I'm inclined to believe the retired four-star Marine general. I think it says a lot about a person choosing to believe the known liar and convicted felon over the four-star Marine general though, and none of them are good things.
Donald Trump is definitely not the victim of anything. He has, through his long and abusimal career, earned every ounce of ill-will directed towards him. I bet he even holds a balance at the enmity bank.
Born with millions of gold spoons in his mouth, dodged having to serve his country, bought a degree, never worked an honest day in his life, humping anything that moves, paid himself tens of millions from businesses he then let go bankrupt forcing banks, investors, and small hard working contractors to accept pennies on the dollar, and that's all before he bamboozled the morons into voting for him.
This whole suit against his own DOJ for $10 billion that was completely UNWINNABLE and illegal is nothing but theft in plain sight.
" I Want... "
"...$10 Billion dollars!!! Mwahahahahaha!"
I always thought she had an arrogant look on her face.
Trump always has an angelic look on his face. Very pleasant, not a trace of arrogance. What a sweetheart. Don't you agree?
Irrelevant to my comment.
But it helps them meet their daily quota of "But Truuuummmmpppp!!!!".
Yep, another one to add to the list of grievances.
Is it? You seem to be all about judging people you don’t know by the look you perceive on their face. You certainly thought it important enough to mention here. Are you one of those “look on her face” experts? Like handwriting or body language experts?
I want to hear more about how this works. The ability to discern critical personality traits and motivations based on the look on someone’s face sounds like a really powerful tool. Please elaborate for our collective edification.
You know the seed is literally about him, right? It would be weird if we weren’t discussing him.
So, I take it you don't agree that Trump is a sweetheart.
Your list of grievances must be a mile long by now.
... the look of a loaded diaper.
My RBF tells you everything you need to know about me
The seed is, but thread #2 wasn't until the whataboutism was brought in.
He's currently a politician so no. As I didn't live in New York City and the only time I spent there was going thru LaGuardia for connecting flights I never had any interactions with anything related to him so didn't pay any attention to him prior to him running for President.
Don't expect people to take comments seriously when the poster offers nothing of value and simply trolls a discussion with the cliché platitude "But Truuuummmmpppp!!!!" or equivalent.
Trump is the PotUS and is in the news daily. He is always top-of-news. So when the asshole-in-chief yet again insults a female reporter and someone tries to give a typical feeble defense of Trump via vague agreement, it is entirely valid for someone to comment on the accuser ... Trump.
Why do you try to defend this abysmal human being? You should be condemning the unpresidential words and deeds of arguably the worst PotUS in our history (and certainly in our lifetimes). What drives people like you to NOT criticize this sick lunatic and instead attempt to defend him?
Do you recognize that Trump is the reason for high prices (especially gas) and that higher energy prices will work through our system and raise prices across the board? And this is on top of the effects of his brain-dead tariffs.
Do you recognize that Trump illegally started a war with Iran and has no clue how to get us even back to square zero? He has cost billions in taxpayer dollars, killed thousands of people, further alienated our allies, further disgraced our nation, and the net gain is negative.
So many more examples ...
How can you even think of trying to defend this incompetent, vindictive psychopath?
Fair. We should be encouraging RTDC to explain what an arrogant face looks like and what it means. Also, why it’s even ok to talk about someone this way in a professional setting. I hope you’ll join me in that.
It's almost impossible to describe what "arrogant" looks like without referencing another face of arrogance everyone is likely to have seen. Calling it a "what-about-ism" is just stupid. I think it's a fairly legitimate comparison to create a baseline of what could be considered an "arrogant face" which helps differentiate from what some rightwing misogynists believe "arrogant face" looks like. It seems pretty clear that many rightwing conservative incels see every woman's face as arrogant, especially those that tell them "no".
Trump wants women to smile, look pretty, and tell him how wonderful he is. A woman doing her job to hold him accountable is an arrogant, disrespectful, terrible person.
Nope, don't even have one. I have better things to do. Seems many on the left have nothing better to do than keep a list and share it daily.
Yes.
Seems some didn't see that.
I guess you read two words and got tired. I'll repeat some then: Please elaborate for our collective edification.
And rightwing conservative comments often prove their own arrogance and misogyny which simply drips off them anytime a strong female journalist questions their dear Leaders motives or any woman dares reject their sick twisted reichwing Christian Patriarchy.
Interesting interpretation and mini rant
What part of it interested you the most? Will you be taking an opposite view and defending what Trump said?
It's simply a statement of what I and many Americans are seeing in the MAGAite camp. Here's a recent example:
So, conservatives can keep pretending to be the victims every time they cause damage, but no one with more than half a brain are buying it. Sure, that means they can fool most of their base, but not the majority of Americans.
Those wouldn't be the same Americans that have an irrational hate of a man and anyone that does not scream he is evil from the mountaintop daily would it?
There is nothing irrational about deeming Trump unfit to be PotUS. It is irrational to NOT do so.
Was Joe Biden fit to be president?
"Joe Biden" "Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden""Joe Biden"
its pathetic.
It's actually funny to watch the same extreme partisans who defended Biden's fitness even after in independent prosecutor said he lacked the capacity to be legally responsible for his actions, turn around and claim it's indisputable Trump is unfit (but not unfit enough to avoid being prosecuted, of course).
Seeing the complete lack of principle hardcore partisans have while they pretend to be objective observers is always worth watching. They are so easily exposed.
Even now, when it doesn't mean anything, progressives will fight tooth and nail against admitting the obvious. Biden was the first truly unfit President we had since Woodrow Wilson suffered his stroke and they refuse to admit it.
I wish it were funny to watch MAGAs deny and ignore the hundreds of things that make Trump unfit, but it isnt.
Hardly, Trump was completely unfit for office the first time.
You say that, yet you constantly argued for him to be charged with crimes. Obviously, unlike Biden, you think he's fit enough to stand trial.
The complete lack of awareness is amusing.
Always with deflection. Some Trump supporters (like you) know damn well Trump is unfit to be PotUS, yet continue to try to defend the buffoon.
I do not believe Biden was mentally able to function for a second term, but even in his diminished capacity, Biden is currently more fit to be PotUS than Trump. Most any politician would be more fit than Trump. Trump is a disaster. Open your eyes.
Consider what Trump has done in terms of competency, ethics, legality, morality, integrity, honesty, diplomacy, economics, dignity, decency, duty, etc.:
Trump does not view the presidency as a solemn duty but rather as a license to do whatever pleases him personally.
How does this level of abuse of the powers and influence of his office for personal gain NOT cross well past the line of fitness to serve as PotUS? Where have you seen any other PotUS come close to this level of unfitness?
Hell this alone makes Trump unfit to be PotUS:
It is pathetic. Sickening, actually, that someone can argue that Biden was unfit (based only on his mental decline) while ignoring Trump's multi-dimensional unfitness to serve as PotUS.
You are conflating fitness to serve with insanity. Feeble and ridiculous.
this is what the white house grounds look like today
Trump supporters who know better are proving that they will fight for their party no matter what. They will make 'arguments' no matter how outrageous. Truth is irrelevant; all that matters is 'opposing the opposition' ... fight the 'other side'.
Despicable is the word for knowingly supporting an incompetent, dangerous, vindictive, lawless psychopath for PotUS.
There are also Trump supporters who are too ignorant to know better. A different problem entirely.
It's looking all spiffy for the 4th of July.
Have to keep your list up to date: The National Sometimes-Science but Only if it agrees with our Money Stealing Schemes Foundation began the dismantling of the Ocean Observatories Initiative , because as we all know, if we ignore it, we will be dead before it kills us.
Amused might be a better word. The whole thing
Uh huh.
Better than any sitcom currently on TV
Maybe the dems shouldn't try and stop the rebuilding
Finally, a new term. S/
Agree, the current list is stale and most likely not read at all.
Ignorance of reality is not something to strive for.
Shhhh! It may not be something to strive for, but it is pretty funny to watch sometimes.
Totally agree, especially when it is emotion driven ignorance.
It sure is. Nothing like reading a good rant with morning coffee.
You have yet to rebut my list and illustrate that Trump is fit.
But, of course, you have asserted that you believe Trump is fit to be PotUS. Even now, after all he has done.
Looks like an emotional assertion in direct denial of reality.
I couldn't have said it better myself. Thanks
Then take that to heart and deal with the reality that Trump is well beyond unfit to be PotUS.
They know that's something they can never do so they have flipped the script and claimed it's their opponent's job to prove he's not fit. And of course, the opponents aren't allowed to use any facts about him to do it. At the same time, they reserve the right to openly lie about their opponents, present conspiracy theories as fact, complain about their opponent's lack of objectivity while displaying none, claim the opponents' protesters that didn't violently attempt an insurrection are terrorists while calling their own parties violent protesters that did attack officers and the very foundation of our constitution 'patriots'.
If it wasn't actually happening right now, I would not have believed it just five years ago. After January 6th I thought there is no way anyone won't see it for what it was and what we all just witnessed live on television. Trump is done and will leave in disgrace. But here we are, the twice impeached convicted felon and insurrection instigator is back again, fucking our nation into the ground, embarrassing every single true patriot every single day.
Well, they are the ones making the claim he is unfit.
Of course they are, as long as they don't promote their emotional, exaggerated or spun opinions as facts.
When adding to your "list" of grievences.
That's why I don't engage with these trolls any more
that's really the main reason trump sycophants are here, to troll ...
A list of facts about Trump gets posted frequently, and so far, the only defense I've seen of any of it amounts to claiming everything is "rigged". The courts are "rigged", the election was "rigged", the system is "rigged", democrats are "rigged", and some fantasy deep state none of them have ever proven to exist is supposedly the rigger. So, here we are. Facts have been presented but intellectually dishonest partisans refuse to accept them and continue to lie for their dear Leader like good little sycophants. Fucking losers.
and that's why I ignore them but it's taking an awful long time for them to realize it
because you can't fix stupid ...
If only that were true
Do you deny that Trump tried to steal the 2020 election with fraud, lies, coercion, and incitement?
Spot on, IMO.
Ok. Why amused? Do you think it’s funny when the President of the United States - or, for that matter, anyone in a professional setting - randomly attacks a person for the way they look?
No Thanks
Did I laugh?
Yup, you cannot even acknowledge Trump's most obvious, egregious acts —his attempt to steal the 2020 election with fraud, coercion, lying, and incitement.
Uh huh
No Thanks
Don’t troll and don’t deflect. Answer my questions or admit what you’re really about.
You said you were amused. Say why. It’s not hard.
It's not hard but it is revealing which is why Trump supporters seem to avoid being honest like the plague. It's clearly one of the traits they share with their hero. They also often employ the "Don't answer the question you were asked, answer the question you wish you were asked" political tactic.
Bullshit rants amuse me that's why.
Admit what I am really about? Oh brother
Interesting. Rant. Amusing. And now Bullshit.
They’re just adjectives. None of it is explained despite multiple requests for clarification. This is why people accuse you of trolling.
She needs one of those subtle, natural looking Mar-a-Lago makeovers. A couple pounds of ass fat injected into her lips would make all the difference.
slovenian porn star, 3rd choice breeder, 7 figure pre-nup chic ...
Every rightwing religious conservative incel's dream.
a slam dunk as soon as they find out she has a penis too ...
Like Erika Kirk ?
Whatever floats the liberal boat.
Name a liberal with a Mar-a-Lago makeover.
You tell me, you are the one that wants women to look like that. Or do you like only conservative women?
He’s a bully. Fuck Trump.
He's a disgusting POS.
Men telling women to smile is a form of sexism and a control issue.
No woman is required to smile for that dirty POS pedophile
But these people, their lives have been destroyed.
There is a clear and obvious difference between “destroying your life” and “having your life destroyed”. If anyone assisted in destroying their life it was the Commander in Thief DJT.
As per usual, MAGA is here to complain about us being mean to Trump, but can't defend his words or actions.
They have nothing better to do than to share that daily.
Trump sleeps today during an oval office ceremony for the coal industry.
At least when he's asleep he can't do any damage. So, that's a positive.
Trump - Destined for the Dung Heap of History
...working so hard for small Americans. Without a spine they're the shortest politicians in history.
Low Energy Sleep Don is dreaming of new ways to grift. It will be a great day for America when those eyes stay shut forever.
trumplethinskin ...
For some reason that made me think of the perfect punishment for the criminal PotUS. Being handed over to live in the hole in Buffalo Bills house.
I know that scene is supposed to be terrifying but the way you described gave me the giggles
