Kaitlan Collins Says 1 Aspect Made Trump’s ‘Smile’ Attack On Her Different | EUROtoday

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on Tuesday revisited Donald Trump’s current chastising of her for not smiling whereas she was questioning him about justice for the victims of the late convicted intercourse offender Jeffrey Epstein, a former shut affiliate of the president.

Appearing on “The Late Show,” Collins informed host Stephen Colbert she wasn’t caught off guard by Trump’s insult.

But one side of it stood out.

I don’t suppose it stunned me within the second of the assault. I imply, the president has known as me a variety of names, he’s gone after me and tried to deflect from the questions that we’re asking. But in that second, he’s somebody who is commonly politically savvy or tied in with what his base needs. In that second, I used to be pondering if he had stated that in response to a unique query, I feel it might have had a unique response.

“I think a lot of women can identify with that moment and that feeling,” she continued. “But I think it was actually the question that is what generated so many headlines out of that. Because my question was about sexual assault survivors and it wasn’t even accusatory of the president.”

“I don’t think it’s a controversial opinion that you shouldn’t smile when you’re asking questions about a sex trafficker and sexual assault victims,” she added.

Colbert’s viewers erupted in applause.

“That’s reasonable,” Colbert responded.

Collins stated that, because the trade, she has been flooded with photographs of herself smiling — together with from relations.

They present “that I do indeed smile, when it’s appropriate,” she stated, smiling at Colbert.
