Stunned Anderson Cooper Cuts CNN Interview After Trump Accuser Calls Rape “Sexy”
- Stunned Anderson Cooper Cuts CNN Interview After Trump Accuser Calls Rape “Sexy”
by Tyler Durden, https://www.zerohedge.com/
Less than 48 hours after columnist (and soon to be book author) E. Jean Carroll accused (in a New York Magazine article) Donald Trump of raping her in a dressing room in high-end department store, Bergdorf Goodman, in the 1990’s, CNN had gleefully invited the accuser on to discuss the details of this horrific act from her past.
–
Things did not go according to plan for CNN… and we suspect for Ms. Carroll’s book sales. While President Trump has vehemently denied the rape took place, a sensitive Anderson Cooper welcomed the woman on to his CNN show… then things went ‘full awkward’.
–
Cooper asked Carroll, “you don’t feel like a victim?” after she suggested that was the case, and things went downhill fast. The seemingly unstable Carroll replied, “I was not flung to the floor.”
–
Cooper retorted, “I think most people think of rape as a violent assault…”
To which Carrol replied, stunning the CNN anchor, “I think most people think of rape as being sexy…”
–
Cooper stuttered, stumbled, and quickly cut the interview straight to a commercial break, but not before Carroll could add “…think of the fantasies.”
–
Perhaps next time, CNN will vet the mental health of their Trump-bashing guests a little better? Are we still supposed to believe every accuser or did Carroll just crush the credibility of the last two years of #MeToo-ism accusations in one 30-second breakdown?
