CNN’s Kaitlan Collins asks Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) about Donald Trump’s 2016 attacks, Nikki Haley announcing that she would vote for Trump, and whether Cruz will accept the results of the 2024 election. #CNN #News
@@Petshmah67 Yup. It's absolutely pathetic, and sickening really,that Republicans would turn their whole party over to an insane crook that brings everyone down.
You're right . He should have kept his family in the freezing weather with no power for 2 weeks like the rest of us. He should put his job over his own family..gtfoh
@@greatwhitebuckwheat791 "Kaitlyn ripped Ted to shreds". Oh please, She was completely stopped in her tracks when Ted called her out for insisting there was no voter fraud at all. Then she backtracked, claiming it wasn’t enough to affect the election, as if it's the same thing. She sounded like an uneducated high schooler, and Ted caught her on that too. Zero crimes and 'not enough to affect the election' are two very different things and boy are you dumb not to be able to see that either.,
I wish CNN interviewed both political party representatives like this. Not 95% / 5%. It’s disappointing when you can instantly tell how a journalist votes. Seems more like activism. It wasn’t like this 15-20 years ago.
Actually Fox does. I'm pretty sure they just interviewed biden with nothing but soft balls!! Atleast fox has half and half CNN is fully blown far left George Soros. Who actually owns CNN
@@stereoman418 CNNis JUSTLIKE Fox! lol Just the other end of the loony spectrum! You are all clowns! Both these parties are a joke and have been corrupt for a LONG TIME! Keep rooting on liars, and thieves! 🤡
He did well in this interview, I thought. He didn't let Collins ride roughshod over the facts he was giving her. Could you explain why you say this? Thanks.
@@granjmy facts? Hes twisting himself into pretzels to avoid saying there was NO significant evidence of fraud in the 2020 election. He is a grandpa munster looking snake and he always has been and always will be, period.
Hey, be happy they at least uploaded this "interview." Share it with friends who actually trust CNN. Show this interview and an interview with a Democrat. CNN is never this combative against a Democrat.
@grezdaed There's a reason for that: this republican is a liar. Cruz repeats two separate times in the video "the media always insists voter fraud has never existed" Kaitlan Collins stated six different times in the video the voter fraud of 2020 " wasn't in sufficient quantities to alter the outcome" Six different times. How does Cruz continue to assert this absurdity after Kaitlan openly acknowledged the fraud in 2020 six separate times? I'll tell you how: he lied.
@@jasonm3835 You can't claim there was a lack of significant fraud when you don't bother to investigate fraud. When the standards for signature verification were reduced in various states, do you assume there would be less fraud or more fraud?
@@jasonm3835because it’s a get out of jail free card, there was certainly fraud that changed the election. There was also changing the law unconstitutionally in places like Philadelphia to benefit democrats. The second she admits there was wide scale cheating, and a wide scale attempt to change the outcome of the election is the minute she has any credibility
Cancun Cruz booked it to Mexico when the power went off & Texas had one of its worst winter blizzards killing dozens of Texans & he even left his dog home all alone to fend for itself.
We may not want to hear what he and those like them say, but they should have a platform to remind us how disgusting they are and why we need to vote them out of office.
Biden was on vacation while Hawaii was literally engulfed in flames. Texas figured it out and went back to normal. Hawaii, on other hand, hasn't recovered at all💀💀
Mr. Cruz, you didn't only get pissed off, you got pissed on, and on, and on, and on, and are still being pissed on. Some of us don't really give a shit what you think or don't think as you run off to Cancun in the middle of a crisis.
C'mon Ted. You're a lawyer. You can't ask someone to prove there was no voter fraud. If there is voter fraud you must prove it. Not the other way around!
Collins (and you) know voter fraud happened. So I guess the question is this. If we know fraud happened, how do you and the BS main stream media know it wasn't enough to turn the election? Margins in battle ground states are extremely slim, and even the worst criminals only get caught for half of what they stole.
PLenty of proof, PA unconstitutionally changed their laws to expand mail in voting. That fraud. Fakenews media suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story. Now its your turn, disprove what I just wrote.
The first thing he caught her on is that she said there was no voter fraud in 2020 and then later when he pressed her on it she changed it to "there was no voter fraid that would have changed the election" why did she say that? It's because they have been saying it on here all along to each other at there little dinner party with friends and never challeged until now. She didn't realize she was reporting a falsehood because she was in this trance, this brainwashing and guess what? He woke her up and that was her "woke" moment if I ever saw one.
Haley: "Donald Trump represents everything I taught my children not to do. And that's why I'm happy to announce that I will be voting for Donald Trump in 2024."
Well, actually, it’s entertainment, not journalism. There’s a difference. I have 100% respect for her sticking to the question she asked and letting him know SHE is running the interview. Period. She wants the answer to HER questions in HER interview, not the answers HE wants to give that isn’t in response to her question.
L O L true! He’s a full time podcaster with a part time side gig as a US Senator. He’s one of the most laziest people in the entire world and we the people pay his $200K a year salary. Embarrassing system of government we have. Shame on Texas for continuing to vote for him while their state continues its rapid decline. Deal with the consequences on your own, elect state politicians to destroy your state if you want, but don’t drag the whole country down with you!
The tax cut the he helped Trump pass added $8 trillion to the national debt! The congressional budget office told them before it was passed that it would add to the debt.
@@nicolaiashworth-wojcik-ji1tythe debt is caused when they spend more than they take in. When you cut how much you take in by trillions of dollars, and the debt is increased by trillions of dollars…it is that cut that caused the debt.
that is all you have his planned vacation with his family and not giving him a chance to see if he would end the vaca and come home. you deserve this cnn gal
1 vacation is nothing compared to the amount of vacations Biden takes. Then when hes in DC he barely does anything and never speaks to the press unless every question is pre-authorized and the answers are given to him on cue cards. Hes pathetic
beaten? and even if they were beaten...that isnt the defn. of an insurrection. so how about i agree ppl hurt equal beatings and everyone else agrees that a few hundred unarmed ppl - half in silly costumes - playing on their phones, breaking a single window (oh, and a table that they subsequently tried to fix), and trespassing in a govt bld. is not an insurrection. 🤡🤡world
or his own father's honour, knowing full well that the accusation is a lie!! He's a big boy he claims. But seems more like a "good boy" grovelling at his master's feet.
She's challenging him with questions and facts---that's journalism not activism. Activism is advocating for a specific party or side of an issue. She's questioning and challenging; it's called holding those in power accountable. When people know they made a mistake or have something to hide, they resist such questioning and deny, deny, deny. And then criticize the media as a tactic of deflection, trying to avoid the magnifying glass upon their words or actions. Cruz, again and again, refused to acknowledge the evidence that the anchor kept raising. That's because he doesn't want to ever admit he was wrong, nor does he want to cross Trump, for fear of Trump or turning off parts of his constituents.
It still shocks me that Texas hires this guy with polished fingernails as their Senator. Trump has bonespurs (to avoid service in Vietnam) and is gutless. People that work for Trump go to prison, but cries that he's a victim of our justice system. We need real men (and more women, too!) who have a good moral compass as our nation's leaders.
Brandon has a good moral compass? That's extremely ignorant or just evil. And anybody like me who lived through Vietnam knows better than to criticize anyone who tried to avoid it. That's a horrible example.
@@therealking6202 YES...and I immediately shook my Effin Head too because we both know Cruz didn't write chit...one of his many interns did the actual writing. Stay Strong!
There is no other word for this woman than REPULSIVE. If someone does not answer a question in the way what she wants it answered, she just steamrolls over the person and cut the interview.
What the H is wrong with these people !? Hey Ted , Larry Flynt was also a " unique character in American history " . Are the citizens of America better off because of him ? Please Ted , go sit down .
That's because his answers were not answers. He refuses to accept that the 'findings' were publicized, but rejected by the courts. You can't hide evidence that doesn't exist. He even said "he felt" there was fraud, and once again provided no evidence. The proof Republicans have on this are feelings, and that doesn't establish proof. So he's full of shit and he knows it. What happens is people don't accept each other's feelings on this issue -- the courts only accept proof. And there was none. That's why all the attempts failed, and Republicans still don't accept the results. There was death in the transfer of power, not peace. The power transferred, but not peacefully. Only lawfully.
@@thumper300zx Bullshit. She would not let him answer as it would spoil some of the narratives being spun by CNN and their like. She is supposedly interviewing but won't let him answer and won't answer herself because she the interviewer.😬 That's some good circular reasoning there.
@veenamishra8950 remember when Lightfoot and Pelosi went to the hair salons and shopping centers when every8ne was ordered to stay home? Or Newsoms trip to thr French laundries? Cruz flew his family out, and then came back. That's what a responsible man who will protect his family would do. Take notes, you must not have had those examples growing up if you watch cnn(all lower case)
@@antimediaman9354 The incident in question was in the past, so it's fitting that I dredged up the past. This video has nothing to do with his policies, but rather his inability to hold to his beliefs, if he had any, and stand up to Trump. Instead, he bends to Trump's every whim. Is that too much for *you* to understand. And Cancun wasn't so much of a joke as he abandoned the people that pay his salary.
@@christophermanley3602 really because he campaigns and works with people that attack him all the time, hell just look up what he’s doing with his primary challengers.
The GOP is so binary. Cruz thinks his only choice was to get on his knees or quit. There is a middle ground. You can work with him and not kiss his ass.
Yeah but you're dealing with Trump. It is either 100% absolute fealty to him or you will be tossed into the dumpster fire and these minions need him because their base is full of idiots that worship Trump.😮
We all need to get various perspectives. But while Ted Cruz is not worth listening to, there are so few MAGAs that are. And Caitlyn did a good job nailing Cruz down on various lies - peaceful transfer of power; election fraud lies.
“We can’t waste this…” and surely they did not, with control of Congress they passed the biggest tax cut in American history on behalf of the wealthiest Americans and Corporations. 7 trillion and counting, well done sir, you are exactly who you appear to be.
and what does that matter if all democrats want to do is send the money over seas? Truly what does it matter if the rich aren't paying taxes? This government doesn't care to spend it on us anyways so if you can keep your money then I say keep it.
Anyone with a functional brainstem would know Cruz is lying when he said "the media always insists voter fraud doesn't exist". Kaitlan stated six different times in the video the voter fraud in 2020 ' wasn't in sufficient quantities to alter the outcome' and she is 100% correct.
Cancun Cruz needs more insults to his face. But he has not shame because grifting is more important that his integrity, his honor or his wife, his father and his family. I can see the leash around his neck.
@@AuroraColoradoUSA Who cares? They're speaking facts. Trump has repeatedly shown himself to be a traitor. FFS he's STILL pushing the bullshit "stolen election" nonsense. On top of that he (and the scumbag in this video) they're currently pushing a fear mongering campaign about illegal immigrants
Why Ted don't go and take out his frustration on Trump? clearly he is not over that ordeal... I notice also he has no respect for women, no wonder the attack against his wife was overlooked.
He answered the question, and Kaitlyn didn't like it. Lol, she essentially spoke over him and yelled, "There was no evidence of voter fraud," while acknowledging evidence of voter fraud. Clown town CNN.
He didn't let her get away with a "dishonest assertion saying there was no voter fraud. He caught her and forced her to tell the truth in which she added more words and said no voter fraid that influenced the election fraud. She said there was no difference in meaning which shows how stuoid she is because yes there is a difference in meaning. To say there was no voter fraid means nobody committed any and they did.
@sethgyan I heard every word he said. That's how I know he's lying. Cruz states on at least two separate occasions here 'the media always insists voter fraud has never existed' And yet Kaitlan, who's a member of the media, states six separate times in the video 'the voter fraud that occurred in 2020 was not in sufficient quantities to alter the outcome'. This is a direct contradiction to what Cruz claims "the media always insists". Kaitlan never once stated voter fraud has never existed. That's how I know Cruz is lying.
Politics has evolved to the point where it is acceptable to distort, engage in hypocrisy and even lie if it advances personal political ambitions. No other field of employment would tolerate anything close to that type of behavior. Why do we tolerate 'that is just politics' from those entrusted to govern??? Anyone caught intentionally spreading misinformation needs to be immediately disqualified from any level of public office.
Problem is people pick sides and stupid people like collins really don't help? Tell me the last time she pressed a Democrat like she does Republicans! IT DOESN"T HAPPEN......LETS START WITH THE MEDIA AS THEY"RE THE ONES WHO PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT"S REPORTED! STOP WATCHING THESE POS ELITES WHO TELL US WHAT THE ISSUES OF THE COUNTRY SHOULD BE!
This is the same person who fled his state during that brutal winter surge to Cancun, got spotted at the airport then threw his family underneath the bus. These are facts and it’s beyond pitiful. The people of Texas deserve better. Period.
Lmao was he supposed to stay in the snow….you know why the media put that out? Because right before democrat law makers was having people enforce Covid lockdown while going to vacation in Florida so this was there got you moment
@grezdaed some people are to stupid to understand right from wrong. Facts are facts do you really like a cheater ,rap ist over and old man . Wow so sad. Look at the facts on beto he is a much better man then what you love now. These are facts😮
He bases his actions on a political situation from 150 years ago and thinks a similar action is applicable today. The judicial system was not in place then. All the high tech counting system for vote counts today are very accurate. He fails to mention that most of the fraud committed (however small) was committed on the side of the GOP. Does he think the public is as stupid as he looks? Vote him out in his next campaign.
The judicial system was not in place 150 years ago??? Do you think the public is as stupid as you are?? Of course the judicial system was in place, current law is based on those laws and is not changed for light and transient reasons. In addition, approximately 90% of the people arrested for voter fraud over the years are democrats, not republicans. Voter fraud proves that high tech doesn't prevent fraud on a small or large scale. Many of the machines were easily tampered with and/or connected to the internet where totals could be easily changed.
Ted didn't answer the question Because the answer is NO !!! and He's not the only person who won't answer That question.... SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT PICTURE 😔
Actually, I think that she did not handle this interview very well. She let Mr. Cruz derail the topic into "CNN is claiming that there is no voter fraud", which is a lie. She let Mr. Cruz tell it multiple times and she did not push back against it. She just kept asking her question but in the meantime Mr. Cruz was delivering his message to his audiences. He seems to have a lot of conversation and debating and psychological manipulation skills and he is using all of them to his advantage.
That was an “interview” in the loosest sense of the word. Kaitlyn and CNN are a laughing stock outside your little bubble. She wants to debate Cruz but gets upset when he debates her back and tries to continually talk over him? No wonder this audience is widely known as the most uninformed in America. No wonder CNN keeps losing viewership. .
The disrespect he has for her when he's asked a question that does not want to answer. Keeps speaking over her louder and louder, over and over, just to avoid a simple yes/no answer
It's because there have been multiple investigations on January 6 and in fact the J6 Committee not only hid evidence of what happened, they also destroyed evidence of J6. What we have seen was a protest outside of the Capital and the Capital State police escorting people inside of the Capital building. If your not aware of that, then you need to watch the videos that got released. The fact that on J6, Trump wanted a "peaceful protest" as he mentioned in his own speech and somehow that got interpreted as an "insurrection" is what's criminal. You need to know what the definition is of an "insurrection" before claiming one actually occurred and then have actual evidence, not hearsay where the more you dig, the more the contrary of evidence is presented.
He did not answer the question that she asked. Just like every Republican & even Trump that when you ask them a hardball question, they will back pedal, talk around the issue & say some jibberish that has nothing to do with the question that was given to them.
He did answer the question, the answer was basically: duh... of course not, who is stupid enough to accept the results of an election regardless of anything else?
Cruz and Collins then quibbled about whether there was “zero fraud” - all but a statistical impossibility in an election where more than 150 million ballots were cast.
@@nilnil8411No crashing the certification though, no lying about failed Court cases (failed for lack.of evidence), with lawyers admitting they liwd - Giuliani, Powell, that blonde one who wiped away tears in Court but toured with Giuliani...
That's what all the Republicans do when they come on CNN and they have been going on CNN a lot lately (even Matt Gaetz) they interrupt, ramble, not stop talking to let the hosts talk, or let the host "Correct them" and ask questions, they deflect with "what about ism" and 'The Democrats this the democrats that"..
He's delusional...that tax cut didn't spur unprecedented economic growth ..then he spouts the best unemployment numbers ....where's the push back? We now have the best unemployment #'s....amongst other things
50 years of economic history proves that Republican "trickle down effect" in a con. Business's increase in size when their is more demand for product, not because they have more money to spend. Corporate executives use that money to buy back their stock to receive bigger bonuses.
The tax cuts did economic growth, that what was surprising about Trump's Economy it kept growing. What ruined it? The Covid-19 Force shutdown of economics and the skyrocketing Inflation. The tax cuts will expire in 2025 or 2026, which will raise taxes on all income ranges.
Attempting to talk louder and with an argumentative tone will not make you win your point nor succeed in this interview Ted. Well done again Kaitlan...he never did answer YOUR question.
She can't ask that because she has no shame. She argued like a democrat. This is what you libs call news and reporting? No wonder you're all brainwashed.
