Still waiting for a legacy journalist to slap back and say they’re not going to take any more abuse from this sick and disgusting man.

Trump to Kaitlan Collins: “You don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re a dummy. You’re a low-IQ person, you’re a dummy, and you work for CNN.”

Instead of attacking Kaitlan Collins, the pro-Russia Nazi Donald Trump ought to keep a closer eye on the women in his own mafia clan. Melania is constantly cheating on this repulsive guy. He deserves nothing better.

It is about presidents who have shown humanity—something that has never been the case with that unhinged wild boar, Donald Trump. Anyone who stands on Trump’s side belongs among the human scum of this earth.

Call Trump out! Trump is a traitor. Trump has destroyed the Western Alliance, the strongest military & economic bloc in the world capable of stopping Putin’s aggression in Europe & Xi’s global ambitions, doing immensely more damage to America than the Rosenbergs & deserves their same fate. VOTE!

I don't even need any clever comeback or snark. I just want one of them to say "Sir, I will not tolerate that disrespect from anyone, including you. This interview is over. " and walk away.

Agreed. Do they think it would hurt their career? I'm thinking just the opposite. It's abuse they wouldn't take from anyone else. It's sad and pathetic. Helen Thomas would have punched him in the nose.

It absolutely blows my mind that this hasn't happened yet. Not only because it is what any decent human being should do, but because the person saying it would be regarded as a hero by millions for the rest of their lives. Seems like a good trade-off for losing their precious 'access'.

Dream on! I've been wondering why a principled journalism corps has never shown any espirit de corps and walked out en masse. At least I no longer wonder about the behavior in Nazi Germany.

I’ve lost all respect for any journalist who takes his shit on a daily basis. Those who think it’s normal to ignore the facts & continually deny his asinine behaviour are part of the problem & are enabling this asshole to continue his bullshit. Fuck all of them, CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CBS…all of them

I genuinely don't understand how people can stand there and not do anything even now. I once snapped completely at a service job bc an older white customer told one of my coworkers she should "know her place".

I hope he keeps blowing upand calling people names. He thinks it makes him look like a tough guy. It actually shines a spotlight on his intellectual and emotional immaturity and his inability to answer to the public without losing his composure. He's a weakling.

More than that, I want journalists to stick up for each other. If Kaitlan Collins were to tell him he's a POS, it becomes CNN telling him that, and that creates another kind of issue for her. It sounds stupid, but the best person to intervene would be the Fox rep in the room.

The problem is that "legacy" is the operative word. They’re still operating on a 20th-century playbook where "objectivity" is a shield, not realizing that in the attention economy, silence isn't neutral—it's a subsidy.

The other reporters should continue to ask the same questions. Fuck his sensitive ass. No mercy should be given by the press

Because they care more about keeping their jobs than about how they do their jobs. They know their MAGA or MAGA-adjacent bosses would fire them on the spot, and they've got kids in private school or whatever. I'll be astonished if any one of them ever pushes back.

I love how he's so easily intimidated by Collins, she's doinga great service to humanity. Trump's displays get weirder all the time, and compounded by all his crazy decisions making it more obvious he is an existential threat to America and the free world!

I think it’s time America came to terms with our normalization of emotional abuse, abuse dynamics, and how power is at play with abuse. This is not okay. This is normalized trauma. Stop the dysfunction.

He's unable to articulate the man's name or location "Siberia or somewhere". Millions of men have given their lives in this war and yet he's unable to recognize their heroism and the ultimate sacrifice they made. He stands there calling a woman "dummy" because he can't answer her question.

I only wish I was a journalist I'd let Trump know you don't talk to me like that and you shouldn't talk to anyone else like that either I'd then walk out of the White House lawn and never go back The journalist are such cowards

Collins should respond by saying, "For someone with such a low IQ, I continue to ask you questions that are too difficult for you to answer. Would you rather I ask you what your favorite crayon color is?"

Demented Grampa enjoys shouting at people, as his filter is gone. It won’t be long before he takes a swipe at someone, or soils himself live on camera. He needs to be retired to Memory Care at Mar-a-Lago™️, where he has supervised care & sports an ankle bracelet. And gets the hell out of our lives

I don't understand why serious journalists put up with it. Having access to this guy is no more informative or useful than walking through a shelter filled with barking dogs. Right now, integrity and self-respect would carry so much more weight than "access."

They won't. CNN will send her right back into that room tomorrow, because access is the business model and getting called a dummy on camera is just the cost of doing business.

Seriously. If they don't stand together against these continuing attacks from a United States President, they stand for nothing at all. "I can do whatever I want" --Donald J Trump

It’s not amazing. It’s definitely cool, but not amazing. What would be Amazing is if Kaitlyn and all media would stand up to this cruel, disrespectful, lump of flesh.

I tend to think her just continuing to show up and ask him questions he doesn't like is the best form of slapping back she can do; showing the bully he doesn't intimidate her. Every time he sees her, he feels his impotence.

What I AM waiting for is for one of her colleagues to stand up for her. The next journalist should simply ask her exact same question, phrased exactly the same way. And the next one, and the next one after that...

It is a widespread problem in society that people have an excessive respect for authority; that is why there are still so many dictators on this planet—not only in political offices, but also in corporate leadership positions

I get that for sure. I'm just thinking of myself in that my filter has gotten better as I've aged, but I think it would finally just give out after a while and I'd just blurt something (with bad words) out! 😂

Me too. I've already quit two corporate jobs because I dared to tell my bosses what I thought of them. Bosses often forget that they, too, are just ordinary lumps of flesh and bone that get a fever when a virus gets into it. And they really can't stand it when you remind them of that

as long as he isn’t where he belongs ( behind bars for his felonies) he won’t stop saying the nastiest things to women and each and every man in the press and in government that doesn’t tell him to shut up is complicit…oh yes the women too

they're biting their tongue so they can continue to serve us. if their access is revoked or limited, they can no longer do their job and report to the public. and everyone is calling them cowards, as if they are totally fine with just taking it. incredible.

You’ll have a very long wait. The legacy corporate mainstream media (MSM) will never do such a thing, they are fully complicit in all things #TrumpRegime. Ratings, clicks, ad revenue, profits, access, and their licenses are priorities. #BoycottTheMSM #IndependentMedia

I’d lose my job, but I’d make Trumpstein audibly shit himself on camera so loud that it couldn’t be filtered out, and possibly so mad that it would send him to Strokeville. 🤔

To all media - there is NOTHING this disgusting person says that is important. As soon as he starts his assault on anyone, turn OFF the microphone and WALK AWAY. We do not care about him or his lies.

This is exactly what I mean for I’m so tired of it I’m so tired of it I used to be reporter my husband is a reporter and I’m just like are you fucking kidding me like you do not let someone elected official talk to you like that they are elected you are their Check and Balance.

Most people are weak and scared to challenge authority. You see it every single day. People put up with horrible behavior from their employers, their spouses, their family. Most never learn to stick up for themselves. It is a weakness that causes the whole world to settle for less.

I wish when he insulted Kaitlin Collins for the umpteenth time that every reporter said nothing and just put away their equipment and walked away. His Presidential verbal abuse to reporters shows he’s not Presidential.

Frankly the media earned this Their co-dependent position with power (see “access”) demands it and I am with it. I will take Marissa Kabas over Kaitlin 8 days/week Let them suckle the naked king; they aren’t my representatives they serve their ego

Now that would be a patriotic thing to do (unlike standing for the anthem), putting the welfare of the country above one's own welfare. The fact that not one journalist dares to stand up to Trump speaks volumes about how America has devolved to our current state.

Me, too. When do you expect that to happen? What I'd like to see is the next male journalist Trump calls on after Kaitlin or another female journalist to ask him to answer Kaitlin's question. That's what I'd like to see. And I'd put them in for a Pulitzer...

Only 116,000 jobs were created in 2025. You can't get hired in any field if you're over 40. This is most prominent in the media. They don't want to lose their gigs. Especially the veterans with a few wrinkles who have younger reporters fucking their news directors and biting at their ankles

He’s like a spoiled, entitled, whiny child with no home training. Will her colleagues ever step in to support and protect a fellow professional? Or will they continue to be spineless and leave her hanging out there, by herself?

But as you well know in history if people think that there will be no accountability they will either participate or turn a blind eye to corruption and unspeakable acts of violence and cruelty.Legacy media is complicit in what we are watching today.

Tough guy, with huge security team around him, feeling safe while he abuses a woman on camera. I have NEVER seen a weaker human being. Who can look at this and not start to believe the stories of his violent rape of children. Show ALL Epstein files and tapes to shut me up!

I wish they'd just stop covering him. We've heard enough of his abusive lunacy. We know he's a demented power hungry liar, a thief and a rapist who's going to try and steal this election. What else do we need to know?
