AOC delivered a tentative, stumbling response to a question about Taiwan during a panel discussion at the Munich Security Conference on Friday. The moment went viral and prompted a blizzard of jabs from critics of the star Democratic congresswoman. But on Tuesday's edition of CNN NewsNight, Phillip contrasted AOC's performance with a series of Trump gaffes. Acknowledging AOC's flub, Phillip asked if those same critics should also direct their jabs at the actual president of the United States.

During a debate about the results of the 2020 election, CNN's Ana Navarro abruptly said, We are seeing this happen over and over again where the federal government is fabricating things, lying.

What does that have to do with the ballot?! shot back O'Leary, as host Abby Phillip yelled, Stop, stop, stop.

Moynihan said, The question is, is he a protester or a journalist? And the indictment obviously suggested that he posted himself at the main door, he prevented people from exiting.

It says that protesters did that, it names the other people, it did not say that Don did that.

CNN anchor Abby Phillip shut down Trump supporters over President Donald Trump directing his Justice Department to indict specific individuals, shooting down claims made in Trump's defense. Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) was the third person named on that list and has yet to be indicted but he is protected by a pardon from then-President Joe Biden. On Monday's edition of CNN NewsNight, Phillip hosted a panel comprised of Scott Jennings, Cornell West, Caroline Downey, Adam Mockler, and Josh Rogin.

Abby Phillip emphasized that Trump's trade deal may lead to higher consumer prices, indicating that it functions as a baseline tax increase on Americans.
