Donald Trump brutally humiliates CNN’s Kaitlan Collins during fiery address

But I want to personally congratulate

CNN's Kaitlan Collins

on receiving her award.

It was all about me. It's a fake. She

shouldn't get the award. It was a fake.

But I didn't mind. I said, "Kaitlan,

congratulations."

But it was fake. There's no question

about it. But she's a

young, attractive woman. She never

smiles. I said, "Kaitlan, do you ever

smile?

Smile. You have a nice position. You're

at CNN fake news. You should be a happy

person. So, smile, Kaitlan. Just smile."

But

we attack and I thought Kaitlan had

really made it big with a major new

sponsorship. But then I informed her

that it wasn't her on the Bud Light can.

It was Dylan Mulvaney.

And Dylan Mulvaney cost Bud Light $35

billion

in market cap. That was the worst

commercial ever made, by the way, for

those few people that want to hear that.

Most people don't care, but I would. I

wouldn't want to hire Dylan anytime

soon. Think of it. They hired Dylan

Mulvaney and their market cap has gone

down by $35 billion. Who wrote that

commercial?

And then you have writer Josh Dawsey.

He also received He's been killing me

for years. No, he's been And yet tonight

he shakes my hand. He hugs me.

Everything nice.

He kills me. Josh is amazing. He writes

more stories than any human being.

There's nobody that writes more than

Josh. He'll write four stories about me

a day, all different subjects.

I mean, I had the other day three

stories and one on the

I but he was upset about this. One was

on page seven, three were on page one.

They were all written by Josh. But he's

hit the big time.

And he's a workhorse. And yet

he's almost unhirable. You know, you

hired He's just one of these guys Wall

Street Journal's lucky to have him.

But you really is a it's unbelievable.

He's almost unhireable. CNN

is also here

and I'm very disappointed they didn't

bring fake Tapper because

he's had a rough couple of years, fake

news. You know, he calls me up every

once in a while. If I pick it up, you

know, I pick up my phone. I used to go

to this young lady, I say

any calls from the press? No, sir.

I said, oh.

Now I'm the president of the United

States, huh?

I'd say to Steven Chung, is Steven here

someplace? Where's Steven? He's one of

the toughest human beings I've ever met.

Don't ever wrestle Steven, you'll be in

big trouble.

But I say, Steven, let me ask you, did

the press call? No, sir.

Huh. You know, when I was a developer, I

get a call every half an hour for I for

whatever reason, I always got

disproportionate press.

So I said Steven

nobody called? No, sir.

Uh 2 hours later I say, hi Steven, how

are we doing? Everything good? Anybody

call? No, sir, no press calls.

I said I'm president, no. They never

called. So this went on for about a

week. I'd say, Caroline, did the press

call? No, sir, no calls.

I said nothing. That's over a week, I

haven't received a call. So I said, you

know what? I'm going to give the press

my phone number. That was the stupidest

thing I ever did.

I'm getting a call every 3.7 minutes.

Steven, I don't know where the hell

you've been.

But the press calls. I'm getting calls.

Ring, ring. I was with somebody today.

They said, I've never heard a phone ring

as much as this press. Now I look at the

thing and usually just delete, delete,

delete. Every once in a while

it'll be one of the people in this room

that I like

and I'll pick it up. Like this one right

here calls me on occasion, right?

She'll call me, she says, hello, sir.

How are you? Uh

we want to talk about some horrible

subject, like a horrible depressing

subject. I say, Jack, I don't want to

talk about congratulations, however, on

your new marriage. But I don't want to

talk about it, but it's true, and people

call me now, and and so for weeks I go

no calls, and I learned then that

uh both of them

they feel that I'm doing a great job,

and they feel I'm above it all,

and that no person

hundreds of people call, no person is

good enough to talk to Trump. And so we

don't even bother telling you. That's

not the way it works, Carolyn. You have

to let me know, because sometimes I do

want I do like to speak to the press,

but now I have the best system I've ever

had. It rings, and just so you

understand, you're much better putting

your name, cuz if there's no name, I

just I just can't do that. You know, I

pick up every once in a while. Hello,

I'm from Reno, Nevada. We're a startup

paper. We're calling it

the Reno Express. I said, "Do you

believe I'm I'm the president of the

United States?" "Mr. President, could I

have your views on Iran?"

And I just hang up.

No, I get the craziest calls. I mean,

some of them My wife said, "I can't

believe you do this. This is a hell of a

way to live." But sometimes I get calls

from very important Sometimes I can

straighten out stories that are going to

be fake, and I can make them from a fake

story to a good story. I always find

that when you don't speak to the press,

you always get a bad story. When you do

speak to the press, you have a shot at

getting a good story. Oh, look.

>> [applause]

>> No,

look, if I were a reporter, and let's

say I'm a big reporter, I work for the

failing New York Times, or I work for

Well, I don't know. Do they ever come to

these things? Didn't they cancel out a

long time ago? Big mistake. They should

They should be here. But I get a call.

I've always found that, you know,

speaking to them,

you just do better.

You do better. When you can, when you

have the time, you speak to the

reporter, you treat the reporter with

respect. Sometimes now there are

reporters where it doesn't matter. You

can be so nice to them, it doesn't

matter. You get treated unfairly. But

you have a lot of great reporters where

when you speak to them, you can get your

point across, and that's a that's a good

thing.
