After a week of CNN's non-stop coverage of the Trump indictment, the one that revealed thirty-four charges of derp, I wanted to bring back this Donnell Rawlings classic. The comedian compared CNN's breathless anti-Trump coverage to a nagging girlfriend. A more fitting analogy one can not conjure up.

It's from three years ago and was about the early stages of the pandemic. As you watch, consider how much worse the news-based content provider has gotten since then.

"CNN is like a nagging girlfriend. It's like, "Oh, b*tch, shut the f*ck up. The same sh!t, b*tch? ... You ain't got nothing else to argue about? Five years ago, you haven't found another argument? CNN will be like, "You remember that time?" ...If you listen to too much CNN, you don't even know what the f*ck is going on with nothing other than how much you hate this motherf*cker."

CNN wants Trump politically because they know he can be beaten in a general election. DeSantis does better with independent voters and doesn't fall into media traps as easily.

But more than want Trump, CNN NEEEEEEEEDS Trump. They need Trump to do Trump things so that they can repeat those Trump things. Then analyze those Trump things. Then squeeze eleventy people onto a soundstage to have them discuss those Trump things. Without Trump, what would they do? Report news? That's crazy talk.

CNN is worse than the nagging girlfriend. They're the nagging girlfriend who thinks they can change you. Then when you have had enough, won't calm down crying "PLEASSSSSSSE DON'T LEAVE MEEEEEEEEE!"
