Trump’s Memorable Moments at CNN Town Hall in New Hampshire.
Trump’s Explosive Town Hall on CNN
Former President Donald Trump’s town hall on CNN in New Hampshire was a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs. Throughout the event, Trump sparred with CNN host Kaitlan Collins on a wide range of subjects, including his stolen election claims, the January 6 riot, and more.
Stolen Election Claims
Trump claimed that the 2020 presidential election was rigged and stolen for a good portion of the opening 45 minutes of the event and he refused to acknowledge that he lost. Collins pressed him on the issue, stating that “You and your supporters lost more than 60 court cases on the election. It’s been nearly two and a half years. Can you publicly acknowledge that you did lose the 2020 election?” Trump responded by saying, “They found millions of votes on camera, on government cameras, where they were stuffing ballot boxes.”
January 6 Riot
The former president defended his actions on January 6 as he blamed former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser for turning down his alleged offer to send in the National Guard. When asked if he owed former Vice President Mike Pence an apology for the events of that day, Trump said that he did not because he claimed that Pence was in the wrong.
Economy and Energy Independence
Perhaps the strongest moment that Trump had during the night was when he spoke about the economy and energy independence. When asked about the U.S. debt ceiling, Trump said that Congress should default on the debt if the White House does not make cuts — which would result in serious economic and financial problems for the U.S.
Conclusion
Overall, Trump’s town hall on CNN was explosive and full of controversial statements. While some of his supporters may have appreciated his boldness, others may have been turned off by his refusal to acknowledge the results of the 2020 election and his defense of the January 6 riot.
