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
@@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.,
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
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.😮
@@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
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.
This man, who by all indications is a highly intelligent and experienced politician and jurist, will go down as one of the great snivelling cowards of our time.
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.
Do you think it was appropriate for Joe Biden to shower with his teenage daughter? In her diary, she spoke of showering late at night only after her father had gone to sleep so he wouldn't join her. ----- pg 11
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.
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.
Texan here, this man has never represented the interest of anyone that has not put money in his pocket. He also stopped doing his job years ago when he started a pod cast
As an inner city Texan here in San Antonio. Ted Cruz does represent us. I called his office to request things. He’s delivered every time! Ted Cruz 2024!
As a Native Texan, now living in another state, I feel for ya. How can smart, hard-working, God-fearing people I know continue to elect that joke of a senator, and that idiot governor, I'll never know. It's just pathetic.
@@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!
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😮
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.
No place for liars in the public space. Don't even give him a second of airtime. Media has a responsibility to keep charlatans and opportunists away from public airtime.
@@thetexican3468 Nah they dont interview Biden cause it would highlight what a disaster and mumbling dementia patient he is. CNN protects Biden like a mamma bear with her cubs
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.
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.
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.
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.
@@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.
This is the problem, if you want better ratings you should take notes from bill Maher. I don't know who this woman is but this was an interrogation and not an interview. And it's also the reason why podcasts are so popular now. What I just watched is a waste of time.
@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)
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.
Nobody anywhere anytime on any legitimate news network has ever claimed " voter fraud never existed" as Cruz asserts. Never. Cruz is the liar. This isn't difficult to understand.
@@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.
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!
I don’t understand why Cruz bothers going on a show with a democratic strategist posing as a journalist. Her bias is so blatantly obvious it’s painful.
She should've just asked him where's the evidence and held him to it. You can't let a guy like Cruz try and litigate his way out because he will do circles around you.
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.
Rutherford B. Hayes acknowledgement on CNN? Know your interviewer and her audience Ted. She meant it for every reason under the sun, just answer her agenda driven question.
I’ve been a TV journalist for over 15 years. The state of today’s journalism has become is egregious at best. Yes Ted Cruz is a twit, but Kaitlan is even worse. The point of interviewing someone journalistically speaking is not allow the viewer to decide… not to steer and beat the interviewee into accepting a particular position. He answered it how he wanted. And that’s his answer
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 .
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
I appreciate Collins and CNN for trying to bring on Republicans like Cruz onto the show, but at some point when you can't have a conversation without interrupting each other it becomes pointless. His talking points will never change.
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
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💀💀
Ask Crux: Did 3 U.S. Code § 15 - Counting electoral votes in Congress exist in 1876? Did the older 3 U.S. Code § 7 - Meeting and vote of electors? It wasn't illegal to change the day the electoral votes were counted in 1876. It IS illegal today to hold the count on any other day other than the day stipulated in 3 U.S. Code § 15 unless the Congress first modifies that law.
I watched this live and all I can say is "YOU GO KAITLAN"!!!!!! You did a fantastic job in not letting Cruz get away with his "deflecting and trying to act like Democrats tried to do the same thing"" when he KNOWS they DID NOT!! I tell you Kaitlan did NOT let up and DID NOT let Cruz get away with his garbage that right wing GOP keep playing their "mind game of propaganda", I loved it towards the end, when Cruz kept "rambling" and wouldn't answer her '"Basic question" >"Will you accept the 2025 presidential election results", she just cut him off like WHAM said "no more time going to commercial" I ABSOLUTELY LOVED Kaitlin being so assertive, woman to woman I am so proud of you!👍
She is only 32 and already is terrific in substantively challenging interviewees, like Trump and Cruz, in real time. Notice how concise her challenges are, whereby she gets out of the way fast to give the interviewee maximum time to answer. I wonder how much better she'll be when she's 45.
@@brucehorlick8292 It's so interesting as Kaitlan used to actually work at Fox news and I recently saw some older clips of her when she worked on Fox news, she was saying things like> "Fake news, liberal radical left", and now here she is "gone to "the other side'!! I had no idea she was that young,. I wonder how old she was when on Fox news? She has evolved and matured so much. Kaitlan started working at CNN with Jim Acosta for a few years, when he was ""CNN's Washington DC main reporter at the white house", she 'subbed for him, did the weekend reports, followed him around, as they worked together in getting stories. I can tell how much Jim's experience, seriousness and maturity has rubbed off on her, she is very serious about her work, so much like Jim in that regard. He trained her well!!
They DID NOT? They absolutely did. Do you not remember Hillary and everyone saying Trump was illegitimate? Russia collusion? Real nice when that weed you smoke causes convenient memory loss
