"I mean, like, there was a moment in the Oval Office I wasn't even in there, but you know, I was in the West Wing, and somebody sent me, where he was talking to Kaitlan Collins, who's the CNN anchor. And I have, like, a decent relationship with Kaitlan Collins, which is unusual given that she's from CNN. But the President she's asking a question, and the President says, Why don't you ever smile?"
"The president flipped out on Collins as he took questions during a signing ceremony Tuesday afternoon, raging at her for asking about concerns from survivors over the rollout of the newest Epstein Files dump. Collins asked Trump about survivors' concerns about redactions and feeling like they haven't gotten justice. Trump responded by attacking Collins and claiming she never smiles, considered a misogynist trope by many."
Annie Farmer criticized President Donald Trump for attacking CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins over her smiling habits and noting that sexual assault is nothing to smile about. Trump reacted angrily when Collins asked about survivors' concerns regarding the rollout of newly released Epstein Files, including redactions and perceived lack of justice. Collins later challenged Megyn Kelly for agreeing with Trump and invoking Roger Ailes, whom Collins accused of sexual harassment. Vice President JD Vance recounted the Oval Office exchange and defended questioning style, suggesting reporters need not be antagonistic. The exchange sparked debate over misogynistic tropes about women and smiling.
