FIREWORKS: Trump Vs CNN’s Chris Cuomo [VIDEO]

Donald Trump is calling into all of the morning shows today and his exchange with CNN’s Chris Cuomo really got heated. Mediaite recaps:

Chris Cuomo‘s interview with Donald Trump went completely off the rails this morning on CNN’s New Day as they battled over the implications of his extreme call from yesterday to ban all Muslims from coming into the country.

Cuomo opened up the interview by noting how Trump’s idea is the latest in a series of positions leading to serious division and condemnation on both sides of the political spectrum. To this, Trump claimed the attacks in San Bernardino and Paris are proof that Muslims are trying to infiltrate and destroy America, and that “we have no choice but to do exactly what I said until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.”

Cuomo reiterated that the idea of rejecting an entire religion is the antithesis of American values and freedoms, and pushed back saying “you’re acting out of fear, not making us look strong, and rejecting what America is all about.”

If you weren’t already impressed with Chris Cuomo, watch both clips in full. In the second clip, Trump fondly recalls the Japanese internment camps of WWII.
