From Truth Social Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump Where does CNN get its "talent?" Just watched someone named Abby Phillip lecture her audience on Tariffs and the economy (which is doing record business!). She has absolutely no idea what she is talking about, strictly 3rd rate. Fortunately, the audience has long ago left CNN, and it will only get WORSE. LOSERS ALL!!! 215 ReTruths 855 Likes 6/27/25, 10:56 PM
