‘Obese Flatulent Old Man’: CNN Analyst Says He Pities Trump For Having to Endure Trial Where Porn Star Testified ‘How Bad He Is In Bed’
CNN analyst Paul Begala roasted Donald Trump as a “obese flatulent old man” with “bad makeup and weird hair” while discussing his conviction at the hush money trial in New York.
Begala noted during a CNN interview on Friday that he pities Trump for having to sit in a courtroom over the last several weeks and listen to a porn star testify about “how bad he is in bed.”
On Thursday, Trump was convicted unanimously by a Manhattan jury for falsifying business records in conceal payments to Stormy Daniels in exchange for her silence about an alleged affair amid the 2016 election.
The former president has vowed to appeal the decision and has referred to the six-week trial as “rigged” against him and in favor of District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
Begala said on CNN:
Donald Trump needs to pay himself hush money because every time he speaks he’s losing. He did better during that trial than I thought he would do because he was gagged. And the gag order was perfectly constitutional. Happens in a lot of cases. He hurts himself when he goes on these hysterical rants. Yes, he helps himself with his base, but his base is not the majority of the country in there. There will be some MAGA people who feel some pity. Look, in a way I do. He’s an obese, flatulent old man with bad makeup and weird hair who had to sit in a courtroom and listen to a porn star testify about how bad he is in bed. Now, if you can’t feel sorry for that guy. Now, I don’t want to make my president. The problem is, he is exclusively focused on himself. And this is where I think the Biden campaign needs to take it. He’s. Mr. Trump is in it for himself. I’m in it for you. Right. Mr. Trump cares desperately about staying out of prison. That’s his most important job right now is keep himself out of prison. But he seems to be fixated only on his own grievances and grudges and vengeance and his business deals and his complaining about the last election in the last jury trial. Biden has an opportunity here not to push on the criminality, but to push on what voters care about. Right? Put Mr. Trump on metaphorical trial for wanting to cut Medicare and Social Security so he can cut his own taxes, put him on trial for eliminating Roe versus Wade, put him on trial for things that affect my life and yours, not just his.
