Facebook Twitter

Anderson Cooper stunned after Trump claims he was being ‘sarcastic’ about injecting disinfectant: ‘You just saw the president lying’ Anderson Cooper slams ‘Soviet-style’ propaganda from Trump’s press secretary on bleach comments. On Friday’s edition of CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360,” in discussion with chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta, Cooper pulled no punches on White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany for denying President Donald Trump’s own words on injecting household cleaning products to treat coronavirus.

“I know why the president didn’t take questions this evening,” said Cooper. “It’s interesting to me that Kayleigh McEnany, the new spokesperson, is over the top in her Soviet-like praise or rewriting of history on things, would say one thing, and then the president — they clearly didn’t coordinate their lies.” “They didn’t, Anderson,” said Acosta. “We found out today that the president’s words have meaning, but they’re also, at times, hazardous to your health.

That was part of what we learned today.” “Going to your point, Anderson, there just isn’t enough disinfectant at the White House to wash away what the president did and the lies that were told to cover it up,” continued Acosta. ‘Part of the stench’: CNN’s Anderson Cooper skewers Mike Pence – Raw Story.

Anderson Cooper: We'll 'Never Know General Trump' CNN host Anderson Cooper questioned President Donald Trump’s recent claim he would have made a “good general” –pointing to the president’s multiple Vietnam War draft deferments and noting “the world will never know General Trump” because he never served.

Anderson Cooper: We'll 'Never Know General Trump'

Cooper began the segment by pointing to one of Trump’s recent tweets, in which he insulted General Stanley McChrystal, who led American forces in Afghanistan during his last position, but was pulled from hist post due to controversial comments he made to a Rolling Stone reporter. “‘General’ McChrystal got fired like a dog by Obama,” Trump tweeted. “Last assignment a total bust. Known for big, dumb mouth. Hillary lover!” “If the President feels the need for a better military perspective in the White House, he seems content just looking in the mirror,” Cooper said, before playing a clip of Trump claiming, “I think I would’ve made a good general, who knows.”

CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Thursday called out former White House press secretary Sean Spicer for lying to the media ― and even lying about his lies.

Anderson Cooper Has A Very Blunt Message For Sean Spicer

Cooper played a clip from earlier in the day of Spicer being asked if he had every lied to the American people. “I’ve not knowingly done anything to do that, no,” Spicer said. “That answer is so Washington, D.C., it should have its own reflecting pool,” Cooper said. “Just a nice, calm place where you can sit down with your word salad and think about what you’ve done.” The CNN host then went through a list of lies, including claims about illegal voting and lies about the size of the inauguration crowd, along with some of the things Spicer has said to the press since leaving the White House. “Sean Spicer doesn’t have to lie for a living anymore,” Cooper concluded.

Using the same argument he tried earlier in the evening with CNN’s Keith Boykin, Lord cited the record of former President Woodrow Wilson before stating that Trump –despite earlier promises to release his tax returns — now shouldn’t because they would be “politicized.” To make his point, Lord asked Reich if he had released his returns while serving the Clinton administration. “I’d like to ask Secretary Reich, you were the United States secretary of labor for four years. Did you release your tax returns to CNN and the New York Times and the wider world?” Lord asked. “I released my tax returns, of course,” Reich shot back. “This is important, they’re required to have an audit,” Reich continued.

Cooper, along with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Jim Sciutto and Acosta, brought up several of Trump’s recent controversies. “Jim Acosta, you tried to ask a question at the press conference to president-elect Trump,” Cooper said. “He refused to take questions, saying you’re from ‘fake news.’ What did Sean Spicer say to you after that?” “Well, he came up to me and said that what I did was crossing the line and was inappropriate,” Acosta said. Acosta said that the one thing that is worse than “fake news” is “the denial of real news.” “But I will tell you that this has been a pattern for the Trump campaign and now the Trump transition, where they don’t like the news that’s being reported and they go after the messenger and I think that’s just going to continue,” Acosta continued.
