Visibly angry Anderson Cooper airs unedited video to debunk latest Trump rant against him

"SNIP..........

"So the former president seems to be suggesting that something we discussed, or that I discussed, with E. Jean Carroll during a four-minute long commercial break that you would have been watching at home, made Ms. Carroll change her tone toward him," said Cooper. "Not sure her tone actually changed after the second block of the interview, but that's beside the point."

"The problem with this conspiracy theory is that this interview was actually pre-recorded and we had to pre-record a toss to a commercial break and then welcome viewers back after the commercial break, so that the entire two parts of the interview would fit into my show that night," said Cooper.

.......

"So while Trump is currently suggesting, I sat through a commercial break on live TV with E. Jean Carroll telling her to be angry or whatever, we actually just paused in a pre-recorded interview for a few seconds," said Cooper.

"And if you don't believe me, here's the raw, unedited video of what was actually being recorded." He played the footage, which showed Cooper took a couple seconds to speak with his producer and then immediately went right back to the interview, with nothing else in between.

..........SNIP"

He’s been tried by a jury and found guilty. Then tried and found guilty of defamation. Can he be held to account for this latest rant or has his gag order expired ?

Is amazing. Yet million will vote for him. It's frightening. It doesn't take a genius to spot that Trump is a horrible human being. Some people embrace awfulness.

Here's an example:

Last fall I hired a guy to clean up the property for fall leaves. We worked together and conversed a good deal over several weekends. This guy was around 50 years old, was a physical exercise coach, thus in really good shape, and had held some very responsible jobs in maintenance. He took my freelance offer because he was here doing some elder care. He lived in another state. He drove a late model car, always wore nice clothing, and seemed intelligent.

However I was dumbfounded when he made the offhand remark that "trump is a businessman." I responded that nobody has lost more money than trump. That's a fact that came out about that time.

He then told me he never read newspapers or magazines and didn't watch television at all. Did not read on the internet, either. His stated reason is that it was all "propaganda." So where did he get the idea that trump was a "businessman?"

You're one of the people who have been covering for Trump for decades. You made your bed, now you lie in it, fool. Tomorrow you can go back to pretending everything that man does is sane and logical, and Harris is to blame for everything, including your hangnails.

Dumb ass. Enabler. Liar. Anderson Cooper is all of these, and more.
