On Thursday night, CNN featured The Bulwark’s Bill Kristol reading selections from a ‘letter’ allegedly penned by President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein more than 20 years ago. The ‘letter’ story broke on the Wall Street Journal earlier in the day. Twitchy’s Aaron Walker did an in-depth write-up here. Many doubt the authenticity of the ‘letter’ for several reasons. Trump has denied that it’s real and has threatened to sue the WSJ.
None of that stopped CNN from giving us this surreal moment. (WATCH)
CNN already had Trump-hating Bill Kristol on to dramatically read the fake birthday letter.
This may be one of the most pathetic CNN clips ever and that is saying a lot because it’s CNN. pic.twitter.com/tHgbrtDl3b

Jeez even they have to know what a ridiculous hoax this is

Does anyone think they care?
We have to admit this reminded us of the time the Reverend Jesse Jackson read ‘Green Eggs and Ham’ on SNL. Remember when that show was funny?
Is this an SNL skit??
Incredible 🤣

It’s amazing that they do not see how pathetic they actually are.

The Bulwark, everybody

Again, they don’t care how stupid or pathetic they look. It’s all about getting their white whale, Trump.
Several posters note that the language and flow sound nothing like Trump.
Donald Trump isn’t subtle about anything. If they were going to make something up, they could have at least made it believable.

Enigmas?
Trump supposedly wrote “enigmas?”
Does that sound like The Donald to anybody?— The Mad Stoic (@stoic_mad) July 18, 2025
You can tell Trump didn’t write the letter because it didn’t say, “Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

Now that’s funny!
It all adds up to Kristol and Axelrod’s Pathetic Circus.
Of course, Bill Krystal and David Axelrod. Bill especially is pathetic.

They’re just coasting on hate at this point.
Commenters were taken by CNN’s Erin Burnett’s resting ‘journalism’ face.
Wow! Look at the anchor lady. She’s really aged in just the last few years. Puffy, fat face, looks defeated, beaten, down trodden, sad. She still sits there and does her job with the vigor of a drunken sloth

Lady in the mustard shirt looks gorked on percs just to get through this

How does she NEVER have a pleasant face!
She ALWAYS looks like a sourpuss.— D A V I D A 💜 (@davidangusgrant) July 18, 2025
They keep lowering and lowering the bar for “journalism.” It is sad, embarrassing, desperate and pathetic.

We are watching the slow painful death of the main stream media – 6 months in and they haven’t got one thing right😐

Legacy media is dead to most Americans. CNN has its few Democrat faithful, but they’re aging out and dying. It’s embarrassing to watch, and this video we just viewed proves there’s no coming back from where CNN is now.
Editor’s Note: The mainstream media continues to deflect, gaslight, spin, and lie about President Trump, his administration, and conservatives.
