President Donald Trump has put CNN on notice ahead of his primetime town hall tomorrow night on the network.
CNN’s Kaitlin Collins will host the town hall with Trump for his 2024 presidential election campaign.
Trump said:
“I’ll be doing CNN tomorrow night, LIVE from the Great State of New Hampshire, because they are rightfully desperate to get those fantastic (TRUMP!) ratings once again.
“They made me a deal I couldn’t refuse.
“Could be the beginning of a New & Vibrant CNN, with no more Fake News, or it could turn into a disaster for all, including me.
“Let’s see what happens? Wednesday Night at 8:00.
“Waiting for a jury decision on a False Accusation where I, despite being a current political candidate and leading all others in both parties, am not allowed to speak or defend myself, even as hard-nosed reporters scream questions about this case at me.
“In the meantime, the other side has a book falsely accusing me of Rape, & is working with the press.
“I will therefore not speak until after the trial, but will appeal the Unconstitutional silencing of me, as a candidate, no matter the outcome!

CNN said:
“With the 2024 presidential election underway, CNN Anchor Kaitlan Collins will moderate a live CNN Republican Presidential Town Hall with former President Donald Trump at 8pmET on Wednesday, May 10 from St. Anselm College in New Hampshire.
“The former President and 2024 Republican presidential candidate will take questions from Collins and a live audience of New Hampshire Republican and undeclared voters who say they intend to vote in the New Hampshire Republican presidential primary.”
Bill O’Reilly says Trump screwed up the timing of his CNN Town Hall to coincide w/the Carroll verdict: “The moderator has to ask a few tough questions about it. Has to. Can’t ignore it. That sets a tone where Trump will be on the defensive, and no one knows how he’ll react.” pic.twitter.com/xLY6YaSHTe

The Left has been outraged at CNN’s decision to host the town hall with Trump.
However, the boss of CNN’s parent company fired back at the criticisms, as Slay News reported.
During an appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box with Joe Kernen, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav defended the network hosting Trump.
“We have a divided government. Right?” Zaslav said.
“We need to hear both voices. That’s what you see,” he asserted.
“Republicans are on the air on CNN, Democrats are on the air.
“All voices should be heard.
“This is the new CNN.”
