‘It Was Kind of Funny!’ CNN’s Scott Jennings Throws Down With Liberal Colleague Over Trump’s AI Poop Bomb Video

CNN’s Scott Jennings defended the video President Donald Trump posted of himself bombing “No Kings” protesters with feces over the weekend during a Monday evening segment moderated by Kaitlan Collins, arguing that it was “kind of funny!”

After Collins played clips of the video itself and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) defending it, she asked Jennings if she concurred with Johnson that the video made “a point.”

“Well, yeah, he was making a point. I mean, why shouldn’t the president use a made-up video to respond to a rally that has a made-up reason? I mean, it’s a non-existent reason,” replied Jennings. “We don’t have a monarchy in this country. We have a presidency won by Donald Trump, who won the popular vote, who won the Electoral College, who won all the swing states. We have democracy. People voted, and they elected the president, and the only thing they’re mad about is that he is lawfully executing the office of the presidency and enforcing laws that have been on the books for a long time. So, he made up a video, they made up a reason to have a rally, and I think it was kind of funny to be honest with you.”

Karen Finney, Jennings’s liberal colleague and interlocutor, disagreed wholeheartedly.

“No, it was absolutely disgusting. And it is in line with so many things that the president has said, where he talks about anybody who disagrees with him, or didn’t vote for him as the enemy. And in my lifetime, I’ve never seen that in a president. We can disagree. That is the whole point of America and of our democracy, that we can have peaceful disagreements,” she argued. “People across the political spectrum are not happy with the way Donald Trump is leading this country. We are far enough past the election that he is accountable. And that’s the other message that I think what he-, this so-called satire sends, which is, it’s not okay to hold your president to account if you disagree. You’re allowed to go to the streets. You’re allow to say how you feel. And the last thing I’ll say is this, there is absolutely no comparison to what we saw over the weekend, which was peaceful, and was about democracy, and loving our country. And what we on January 6th at the president’s behest, which was about tearing down our country, our democracy, and an election that was lawfully committed.”
