Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) escalated the Democrat criticism of CNN’s town hall with Trump, claiming it caused him mental and psychological distress.
Democrat lawmakers and commentators responded with predictable outrage to Trump’s town hall with CNN.
But one Democrat senator took it further than the rest of his colleagues.
Senator Chris Coons of Delaware appeared on CNN the next day, saying, “As someone who was at the Cleveland presidential debate where President Trump ran right over Chris Wallace … I had a little bit of PTSD watching that last night.”
“I can’t imagine why anyone is surprised that they thought former President Trump would be any more normal, would follow any guardrails.”
Coons is the co-chair of President Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign.
“I do think this helps define what a general election season between President Biden, who will continue to be rational, normal, orderly president, and former President Trump, who treats the presidency as entertainment and as a wrestling cage match,” he said.
Biden’s campaign used Trump’s town hall performance to fundraise, tweeting a link to a donation page shortly after it aired that asked, “Do you want four more years of that?”
CNN Takes the Brunt of the Criticism
While former President Trump took heat from critics for his remarks during the town hall, his comments were largely expected.
As such, the network that hosted him has taken even more criticism for its decision.
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has been among the most vocal, saying CNN should “be ashamed”.
“CNN should be ashamed of themselves,” she tweeted. “They have lost total control of this ‘town hall’ to again be manipulated into platforming election disinformation, defenses of Jan 6th, and a public attack on a sexual abuse victim. The audience is cheering him on and laughing at the host.”
According to final ratings from Nielsen, the town hall drew 3.3 million viewers to make CNN the most-watched cable news network of the night.
Good U need more ulcers, stress, gas, bloating, headaches OK
U created this mess Years ago
I agree 100%
This moron had all sort of medical conditions before, and now he looks like the idiot he is by claiming Trump gave it to him. Who forced him to watch???
We live in the Matrix and I am ready for the red pill.
Please have him read this again and again.
Anyone that is mentally deficient like this does not belong in the Senate (Or in the White house)
Agree 100% looks like he is as weak as Biden!
They both need to be gone!
Go sit in a corner and suck your thumb you cry baby!!!
Coons is a partisan fool. A true dimwit Leftist loon. His brain power is similar to Bidens at this point in time.
President Biden, who will continue to be rational, normal, orderly president!!!!!
Now we know the Democrat definition of normal ROFLMAO
“Coons is the co-chair of President Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign.
Thus, Chris is a Hemorrhoid!
When the truth comes to light it does make it impossible to control your lying. Wished you had told the truth. It hard to remember lies but, the truth is easy. If all it takes is for the democrat Media to have President Trump on to cause so many medical issues I want him on every network. Thank you President Trump.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸Never give up Never surrender.
“Coons is the co-chair of President Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign.”
Thus, Chris Coons presents with a really bad case of Hemorrhoids!
Coons is F**king Moron. Another Pathological Liar like his Boss, Joe Biden ( must be the water in Delaware).
Coon is a political hack. Between this clown and Biden it does not say much for the Delaware voters. Biden has screwed over them for 50+ years and they still continue to vote for him. Stupid is what stupid does.
If Coons got PTSD from listing to Trump then Coons should resign and check himself into a clinic. We do not need such weak people in government. If I were Coons I would be totally embarrassed by admitting that a speech gave him PTSD. Imagine what he would be like if he really had to deal with an important issue. DUMP COONS
His mental condition reaches fa beyond TDS. Who elects these clowns?
He surely has a mental condition, insanity. But, it was not caused by Trump, it’s caused by being a filthy democrat.
Oh, the poor thing. Maybe he needs a good shot of Fentanyl to calm down.
Chris Coons stood there smiling like an idiot while Biden went in for a sniff of a woman while attempting to grope the prepubescent chest of a little girl in full view of the public and cameras. You can see her cringe and try to get away from Biden’s groping hands.
All these comments so good and so true. Democrats are possessed and the devil shrieks and spews putrid bile upon the world – this Coonce is one of his many vessels.
Snowest of all the snowflakes! Get a real job, Goons.
Where do the Democrats come up with all these losers like Coons. Put him in a combat situation that will really scare the crap out of him. He’s co-chairing Biden’s reelection campaign. An old man who’s unfit to serve not fit govern as President of the United States. The once greet Democratic Party of HarryTruman and John Kennedy is long gone, what a sorry excuse of politicians this party has become.
Biden is an ice cream eating incompetent, while Coons is just an incompetent!
What a pansy!! With all the crisis and chaos caused by his party in the last two years, THIS is what gives him mental stress? What a weak-kneed, light-weight excuse for a representative of the people. And then, to top it off, he has the chutzpah to claim PTSD!! How embarrassing. He wouldn’t know real PTSD if it bit him in the backside. He needs to grow a couple of male body parts.
With all the crisis and chaos caused by his party in the last two years, THIS is what gives him mental stress? What a weak-kneed, light-weight excuse for a representative of the people.
If a town hall meeting makes you mentally unbalanced then you really don’t need to be in congress. Hopefully you are stable enough to withstand someone stating a different position then you have without needing therapy. What are you 5 years old and someone is playing with one of your toys.
If you can’t watch without getting sick then why are you in office. In any case why watch it if it’s triggering ptsd which I highly doubt because it just sounds like the status quo lies that the Democrats do in lock step.
Hey Coons, go home and get back on your meds. Will pray for you recovery.
What a bonehead. Coons has brain damage and needs help. Who put this guy in office? must be a Democrat State! O….ya …….he from Delaware! These poor souls have no common sense!
Hey all, I love y’all to death and definitely loved the way my President took care of biz and that rookie yapping unprepared host at the Town Hall on CNN.
That being said, I think if you look at the photo you can see the 2 guys behind the speaker kind of laughing or smirking. This guy (the Senator) is a co-campaign mgr or something for Biden. IMO the whole thing was being played as a parody. He was making a ridiculous statement claim to divert attention from the fact that Trump kicked ass and got the crowd going. He basically looked like he was ready to handle about anything that came up. Sometimes we all get tired of the Libs lies and ridiculous claims and BS however sometimes it makes sense to just laugh it all off and have a witty comeback. Don’t take the bait as they try to get us riled up over things they create for their purpose or they really don’t care about and are just using it to divert. Keep it mind maybe.
Anyway, keep the faith, get the word out and God Bless the USA.
