but seeing jake tapper near tears after it was an extra special delight in addition to getting to see what happened there. but this is not just the former president. this is like far and away top candidate for the next republican nomination. the idea, like the media meltdown over this means that they don t really trust the american people. ask him questions. get the answers. trust the american people to make the decision. greg: yes. but they don t. they handle everything by silencing him for the last few years and it counter intuitively made it more refreshing. you re not sick of hearing him for the last few years. white house, i forgot, this was great. greg: you kind of missed him, remember, he could be pretty tiresome. i don t know if you remember that guy. what was amazing about cnn, cnn, didn t have just one big panel, they had two big panels.
which means, it s time for trump versus cnn. insurrection two. the rematch. greg: so last night donald trump did a town hall on cnn and it went over as well as a spelling beefeded by john federer man. how dare you laugh at that. first, the standing o. for president, donald trump. pla [applause] greg: we haven t seen a welcome that warm since someone came to the view with two cows and a bag of charcoal. what great idea. have a pro-trump audience just to make the heads of what s left of the cnn audience explode.
to my cable company. but the liberal response was as predictable as it was idiotic. aoc says cnn should be ashamed of themselves for losing control of the town hall. cnn fail journalism and the american public. the daily beast does no failed journalism. every one there is a failed journalist. listen to these jack ass. no surprises, and yet, it was just it was a disgraceful performance. i m not going to pretend like it was easy for me to see the former president get this forum tonight to lie to the american people over and over and over again. i was wondering when he was going to be fact checked in real-time. this is a lie. this is a lie. this is a lie. this is a lie. what i didn t know is that the audience would be filled with his coats. i would like to know if cnn was passing out kool-aid before the event started.
remember, only people who watch cnn work for cnn or other media. seeing people applaud for trump, that s worse than cheering for jaws to eat more children. for an hour plus trump and his debate opponent, the town hall moderator, he talked and she undertalked. to put in seven ballots a piece. mr. president i have to stop you there because there is no evidence obama took them. nixon took them. reagan took them. included a raid on my house. can i talk? yes, what s your answer? i would like for you to answer the question. it s very simple to answer. that s why i asked it. it s very simple that you re a nasty person, i tell you that. greg: like when harry met salary. val had an easier time speaking in the top gun sequel. he would have laughed. trump was in front of a sympathetic crowd that laughed at his jokes and applauded his
be careful. because acosta and other ones, they all got books out of it and they became part of the story and whenever a so-called journalist or opinion piece or whatever it is you want to be, when you become part of the story, your time is done. it s only matter of time before people move on and they won t take you seriously anymore. why is acosta? half of them have been fired because they were the story. so now this time they think they are clever with having everybody bash cnn for doing it so they can keep the news cycle going, because everyone is focused on trump, and you re trying to give break to biden. the good news about that is, all you have to do is wait for biden to speak and him get lost on a three-foot podium and then it kind of switches back. greg: that s true. i ll never become part of the story because i don t you narrate, but don t be part of the story. she s part of the story.
