Collins Trumped

Watching liberal talking heads explode after Trump skewered the barely post-pubescent and woefully unprepared Kaitlan Collins on the CNN Town Hall has been more than entertaining. Speaking of which, wasn’t Ms. Collins hosting an entertainment segment for the Daily Caller not too long ago?  CNN really needs a deeper bench. Apparently, she took a page from the Katy Couric handbook and attempted to buttonhole Trump at an inopportune moment in the Oval Office during the Trump administration and after suffering backlash from the White House, was promptly recruited by Zucker to CNN where she appeared on the Morning Show with none other than Don Lemon. The lefties just love a turncoat. But other networks featured their own unlikable personalities such as Morning Joe, the laughably leftist know-nothing, and the phenomenally abrasive Joy Behar who both seemed on the verge of mental breakdown in expressing their outrage over CNN giving Trump a prime-time TV spot to do what he does best: extemporaneously swat away partisan attacks. No teleprompter, no screened questions, no notes, in direct counterpoint to the bumbling Joe Biden performances. And don’t even get me started about Kamala Harris and her propensity for concocting word salads. But the aforementioned Joe and Joy actually had the temerity to suggest that allowing Trump to speak was somehow anti-democracy and bad for America. And these claims despite Ms. Collins repeatedly interrupting Trump, and even the post-debate analysts attacking conservative Representative Byron Donalds when they heard opinions contrary to their own partisan narratives. Interesting definition of democracy. What has happened to America when the leading presidential candidate for the GOP is attacked and his free speech is threatened with censure by the mainstream media? If he is so toxic, allow him to speak and let the voters decide. But to even suggest that silencing a presidential candidate is somehow in keeping with the constitutional guidelines set forth for our democratic republic shows just how far we have strayed.
