Trump Interrupts CNN Reporter Over Question on Aide Natalie Harp at Oval Office EventPreviousNext

During an Oval Office event honoring a teenage lifeguard, CNN reporter Kristen Holmes asked President Donald Trump about Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff's criticism of Trump's aide Natalie Harp. Trump interrupted Holmes, calling her "loud" and "fake news," and told her to be quiet. The White House's Rapid Response team later criticized Holmes on social media for her question. CNN defended Holmes, describing her as a respected journalist. The exchange highlighted tensions between Trump and the press during public events.
