Her laughably transparent game plan was to get under the former president’s skin, but it backfired. She looked feckless. He looked cool, calm, prepared, and unflappable. While she heckled
and lied, he delivered. While she sputtered like a first wife, he put on the Trump Show. While she stamped her feet, he won over the audience and offered a vision for a future filled with promise and prosperity. He floated over her tripwires like Fred Astaire while she stood there looking like the last sheet on a roll of cheap paper towels.
Trump pulling copies of his time-stamped Tweets to prove Collins a liar was so far beyond ownage, the former president might have violated the Emancipation Proclamation.
Best of all, in an increasingly uptight and fascist culture, Trump made us laugh, and only fools underestimate the power of such things.
It was glorious.
Yes, CNNLOL will win the ratings night, no question. Cuck News firing Tucker Carlson was a bit of affirmative action in that regard, and a ratings win is a victory. The problem for CNN is that this will likely be remembered as a pyrrhic victory, which is defined this way: “a victory that inflicts such a devastating toll on the victor that it is tantamount to defeat. Such a victory negates any true sense of achievement or damages long-term progress.”
This could prove true for two reasons, the second being the most important.
Uno: Wednesday night’s Trump town hall was CNN’s opportunity to capture the eyes of the world and then prove to a world that sees CNN as a left-wing joke that things have changed over there. Instead, CNN proved it is still a dumpster fire of hate, lies, and, above all, the most unappealing group of charmless prigs ever assembled on TV. If the town hall itself didn’t prove that, the indignant CNN roundtable afterward certainly did. Is no one at CNN getting properly laid? The Well-I-Never-ness was turned up to 11. Margaret Dumont would have watched that roundtable and thought, “Why are these people so uptight?”
Simply put, CNN proved that CNN is still CNN, and since everyone other than America’s Woke Nazis despises CNN, the result is this: the whole CNN has changed narrative was exposed as just one more CNN lie.
But here’s where CNN really screwed up…
Dos: CNN is a political outfit, and whether you are a politician, a super PAC, or a lobbying group, the last thing a political outfit can afford is to lose its base of support. Your base is everything, and CNN’s teeny-tiny base is about 450,000 members of the Woke Gestapo and a handful of conservatives who can’t stop hate-watching.
That fact is the real reason last night was a catastrophe for CNN. By handing Trump a forum and allowing Trump to look as good as he did—and he’s never been better—CNN alienated and infuriated its base. Look around. The resentment from the Woke Gestapo is everywhere, and the Woke Gestapo doesn’t forgive.
