Trump's ADORABLE, plump little Tourette's Syndrome Cherub Steven Cheung loses his sh*t over Grampy's war [View all]

Trump’s top mouthpiece, Steven Cheung, has thrown a tantrum at a CNN host who dared to question the president’s war in Iran.

Abby Phillip and the NewsNight panel were reacting to Trump’s freewheeling address to the nation on Wednesday evening, in which the 79-year-old president said the “core objectives” of his campaign against Iran were “nearing completion.”

Phillip poured scorn on the president from the top of the show. In her opening remarks, she said: “If you were looking for some new insights from the president about how this war is going, where it‘s headed, how exactly it might end, I‘m not sure that you got it today. The president basically repeated a lot of the things that he‘s been saying in Truth Social posts, except he said it out loud.”

This didn’t land well with Cheung, the White House communications director.

“Totally unhinged @abbydphillip of CNN has no sense at all,” he began his rant on X. “Complete lightweight who has no idea what she is talking about on foreign policy. It’s now clear why her ratings are in the s--tter.”
