Cripes, Trump gets one teeny, tiny little town hall on CNN and the Left FLIPS TF out.
Ha.
HA ha.
HA HA HA HA HA HA.
Wow.
Full transparency, this editor took far more joy in watching the absolute meltdowns on Twitter (you know, the platform the Left swore they’d leave after Elon Musk bought it) than Trump’s town hall itself. Don’t get me wrong, I grinned watching him make Kaitlin Collins looks ill-prepared, angry, and like the activist she really is, but there’s something so very glorious in watching CNN’s tried and true lose their minds over and over and over again. Now, we will be covering a few of the meltdowns in their own right (AOC lost her shiznit) BUT if we cover each and every one that deserves a good ‘point and laugh’ that is literally all we’ll cover today.
So sit back, relax, and prepare to point and laugh with the rest of us as we go over some of the best (worst) meltdowns we’ve seen so far.
đ¨đ¨đ¨BREAKING: Officer Michael Fanone CONDEMS CNN for hosting Trumpâs town hall this evening.
âCNN Is hosting a town hall for a guy who tried to get me killed,â he wrote. Donald Trump tried to end American democracy.
Fanone didnât hold back:

Didn’t hold back.
Yawn.
OUTRAGEOUS. CNNâs Town Hall has only been on a few minutes and Trump:
– Repeated election lies at least a dozen times.
– Says Ashli Babbitt was a patriot and calls the officer who shot her a âthug.â
– Says he will pardon a large portion of January 6 insurrectionists.

I have been a devoted CNN viewer for many years. I have no problem with CNN trying to move more towards straight news, but this Town Hall is not straight news. It is a Trump rally. I am done with CNN.

I will never watch CNN again for giving a twice impeached, white supremacist, rapist a platform. Raise your đď¸if you will also boycott CNN!

.@CNN: You platforming a sexual predator and normalizing a traitorous criminal that tried to overthrow the U.S. government is utterly despicable. #BoycottCNN pic.twitter.com/URYKXgfhH6

Boycott CNN.

DARN THAT FREE SPEECH ALL TO HECK!
Everyone who cares about our democracy needs to shun @CNN and anyone connected with the network's embrace of fascism, sexual assault and racism. Block the channel. Identify their sponsors and boycott them into bankruptcy. #BoycottCNN.
— Tim Hogan ćľŠĺ¤ (@TimInHonolulu) May 11, 2023
Oooh, if you care about Democracy you should boycott CNN.
They’re so mad.
We’ve missed this. Oh sure, they lost it when Elon bought Twitter but NOBODY makes them as crazy as Donald Trump.
This is Chris Licht the president of CNN
He fired Don Lemon because Don didn't want to be part of the Trump Propaganda Channel Takeover.It's Time To Boycott CNN. I've been watching them since the beginning, but I can't anymore.#BoycottCNNpic.twitter.com/e6nOr2NAHJ

Boycott CNNâs platform for Trump – town hall – also write and tell them so – they figure eyes on the screen – Kaching – thatâs not journalism, thatâs selling out. pic.twitter.com/QTZrKQROQ2

That’ll show ’em!
What did I tell you all?
Who is the corporate boss of CNN? David Zaslav, a Republican.
Who is the owner Of CNN? John Malone, a Republican.
Who wanted CNN to be like Fox News but better? J. Malone.
Now why would Donald Trump sit down with CNN? I answered that already.đ pic.twitter.com/5yl6OZrjgC

ARGLE BARGLE RAR!
Mehdi will clearly never be working at CNN & I think he's OK with that. Few in media will take down others in media but Mehdi is one of those ppl who tell the truth no matter who it is. He afforded Collins no safe harbor. She was a disaster & CNN was a disaster #Fresh #ProudBlue https://t.co/nVtP9Ymqei
— Digital Warriors (@DigitalWarfare1) May 11, 2023
Imagine thinking Mehdi tells the truth.
We might as well include his sad little tweet here too:
"Why CNN's Trump town hall was always doomed to fail"
My op-ed tonight reacting to the #CNNTown disaster – the ridiculous format, biased crowd, lack of follow-ups, and clear win for Trump.
What did Licht, CNN, and Collins *think* was going to happen?https://t.co/VoeLYnkKCl
— Mehdi Hasan (@mehdirhasan) May 11, 2023
DOOMED TO FAIL.
CNN should shut down for 90 days & just have a CGI of someone reading the news. They would have better ratings.
Fire every single person working there
Then hire people with class & manners who reject Marxism/communism in all its forms & who actually like the USA
— Andrew Humphreys âď¸đşđ¸ (@AndyWHumphreys) May 11, 2023
Shame on CNN for making a mockery of this Town Hall. Jim Acosta would not have backed down with Trump. This was a Freak Show and Trump and Collinsâs were the freaks, as well as members of the audience https://t.co/M8YEcsMXKq
— Steve Carvalho (@SteveCarvalho9) May 11, 2023
Let that white guy do it next time is probably NOT the winning argument you thought.
It is obvious that CNN intentionally did not have Jim Acosta as the moderator, because they knew he would not give an inch for all of Trumpâs lies. Acosta, a real journalist, would have challenged Trump on every single lie. I will continue to watch Acosta but no one else. https://t.co/uOkLAzjbuk
— Steve Carvalho (@SteveCarvalho9) May 11, 2023
Yikes, this guy really did not like Kaitlin.
CNN is basically saying, âWe donât care if he destroys the whole country. Heâs great for ratings.â
Shame on them. Forever. I will never forgive them for this. Jim Acosta and Anderson Cooper need to get the hell out of there.
— Trump Is A Weak Little Pathetic Loser. đ§ âŽď¸đşđ¸đ (@kevwrightwriter) May 11, 2023
I didnât watch CNN tonight. I havenât seen any clips yet but judging by reactions on Twitter truth & democracy were slaughtered.
Remember, Chris Licht chose the 20-something from the Daily Caller.
CNN executives couldâve used Jim Acosta or Dana Bash.
CNN did this by designđ¤Žđ¤
—  Heather đ (@_____Heather_) May 11, 2023
It’s all a plot.
Yup.
You’re onto them, ‘Heather’.
Dear Jim @Acosta please leave CNN so I can delete it from my cable.
— Populism is weaponized Dunning-Krueger (@AbawiCynthia) May 11, 2023
Except to watch Jim Acosta, Iâm utterly done with CNN.
Iâm not gonna desert Jim. I hope he deserts CNN for something far better.— Joanie rebels -đ đşđŚ-Finding a way out of no way (@JoanieReb) May 11, 2023
And on and on and on.
The real reason they’re mad? It’s simple:
Think about it; CNN got rope a doped by Trump and went MAGA, the audience loved it, the nuclear meltdowns on the Left are priceless, Trump shows he hasn't lost a step, CNN had their best prime-time ratings in years, and they're totally pissed at getting owned by Trump, lol.
