CNN Airs Long List of ‘People and Groups Trump Has Targeted in Past 48-72 Hours’
CNN aired the long list of people and groups that President Donald Trump had “targeted in the past 48-72 hours” on Tuesday, including former ally Elon Musk, the nation of Japan, and CNN itself.
“The president’s insult parade is crowded tonight, attacking anyone who dares to speak out against him or his policies. Here’s some of the names that he’s targeted in just the last 48-72 hours,” began anchor Abby Phillip.
Phillip then displayed a graphic which showed Musk, Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC), Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, CNN, Japan, AT&T, Israeli prosecutors, Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell, Canada, Forbes, Harvard University, “Alligator Alcatraz” escapees, and former U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas beneath the caption, “People and groups Trump has targeted in past 48-72 hours.”
The CNN host went on to play a clip of Trump threatening to deport Musk, who threw his support behind the creation of a third party to take on Trump and the Republican Party this week.
Asked, “Are you going to deport Elon Musk?” Trump replied, “I don’t know. I mean, we’ll have to take a look. We might have to put DOGE on Elon. You know what DOGE is? DOGE is the monster that– it might have to go back and eat Elon. Wouldn’t that be terrible?”
“And this is all coming from a president who prides himself on doing this,” continued Phillip, before playing a compilation of clips of Trump boasting that he “banned all government censorship and restored free speech in America.”
