Anderson Cooper Defends Kaitlan Collins After Trump Shit Fit

Anderson Cooper has defended his CNN colleague Kaitlan Collins after President Donald Trump made an unhinged outburst directed at her in the Oval Office.

Trump, who turns 80 this month, turned on CNN's chief White House correspondent on Wednesday in a rant about people involved in the Jan. 6 riots having their "lives destroyed." He then claimed, "I'm one of them," referring to the 2021 FBI raid on his Mar-a-Lago home, which he then called "a total fake."

The president then insisted he was providing accurate information at the White House, in contrast to some media outlets, and pointed the finger directly at Collins.

"CNN's crooked as hell, CNN's a very corrupt organization, with a corrupt reporter standing right there, never smiles," Trump said, gesturing to Collins, who had not asked Trump the question he was responding to.

Ran a very good piece last night about this, noting all the unsmiling male reporters left alone.
