Trump berates CNNs Kaitlan Collins for not smiling in Oval Office: Such hatred in her eyes

President Trump repeatedly criticized CNN’s Kaitlan Collins in the Oval Office Wednesday, accusing her of “false reporting” and “never” smiling. Collins asked Trump about the status of the Justice Department’s $1.776 “anti-weaponization fund” following a Republican revolt on Capitol Hill, which set the president off.   “I thought that was the greatest thing,” Trump said of potential payouts for victims of lawfare, “because people like you have abused our people so badly.” When Collins attempted to interject, the president shut her down. Follow The Post’s live coverage of President Trump and national politics for the latest news and analysis“Be quiet … you should be ashamed of yourself.You used to be a conservative,” Trump told the reporter.
