Trump and CNN’s Kaitlan Collins Clash in Heated Exchange
During a tense Oval Office press conference, former President Donald Trump clashed with CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins, accusing her of bias and dismissing her questions as “fake news.” The confrontation erupted when Collins pressed Trump on whether he trusted Russian President Vladimir Putin. Trump initially gave a cautious response but quickly shifted to attacking Collins, suggesting she was aligned with his political rival, Joe Biden.
“You always ask the same nasty questions,” Trump said, waving her off. Collins remained firm, insisting she was simply doing her job. The exchange escalated as Trump accused CNN of spreading misinformation, while Collins continued pressing him for a direct answer.
The clash, reminiscent of Trump’s past confrontations with the media, quickly went viral, sparking debates on press freedom and media bias. CNN defended Collins, calling her a respected journalist. The incident underscored the ongoing tensions between Trump and the press as the 2024 election cycle approached.
