CNN ‘Town Hall’: a Shit Show of Biblical Proportions

The CNN “town hall” was an unmitigated disaster, a shit show of biblical proportions, a desecration of journalism, an off-the-rails MAGA rally, a betrayal of CNN’s audience, a Lollapalooza of lies, a desperate publicity stunt for ratings and the death knell for the formerly most trusted name in news.

The sorry spectacle had evangelicals shouting “Amen”, Nazis screaming “Hail Hitler, rednecks as happy as pigs eating slop and the demons in hell squealing in delight.

But I’ll pull a pearl out of Trump’s incontinent rectum, and admit that one good thing was accomplished: the televised abomination proved once and for all that Donald Trump hasn’t changed one iota for the better. He’s still the steaming pile of human shit that he’s always been. There is no Trump 2.0, he’s still an asshole.

The town hall from the pit of hell was vintage Trump: he called the moderator a “nasty person” for doing her due diligence as a journalist and asking follow-up questions to controversial subjects, he made disparaging remarks about E. Jean Carroll just a day after he was found liable in a civil case for sexually assaulting her, and he defended the Big Lie.

The CNN town hall was the unpardonable sin, liberals will never forgive the cable news giant. CNN is anathema to me.

Trump turns everything he touches to shit, and he has managed to destroy CNN.

CNN Televises Trump MAGA Rally Disguised as a Town Hall

Under its new chief executive, Chris Licht, CNN is dumping some of their more left-leaning anchors and steering the cable news giant to a more moderate position.

Under the stewardship of the former CNN president, Jeff Zucker, CNN didn’t air any of the fascist Trump MAGA rallies in the last four years.

In a desperate attempt to appeal to a more conservative demographic Licht aired a Trump MAGA rally disguised as a town hall.

CNN chose an audience of Republican and Republican leaning voters for their town hall that they knew would cheer for his lies, laugh at his conviction for sexual assault and revel in his antics.

The all-white audience at the CNN town hall resembled a crowded Cracker Barrel on a Sunday morning after church, a white nationalist convention or a MAGA rally.

Not a single person of color was allowed to question Trump, and the moderator, Kaitlan Collins, was ill-equipped to deal with Trump’s bullying tactics. Why didn’t CNN choose a more seasoned anchor for such an important event?

As I witnessed the cultists clap, cheer and chuckle at the racist and ignorant rhetoric emanating from the sphincter-shaped mouth of Trump, I marveled that this shit show was being televised on CNN and not Fox News or Newsmax.

CNN probably got monster ratings for the sickening spectacle, but they have lost their soul.
