Anderson Cooper- "Most Americans want this president to succeed."

[DemocratSinceBirth]

No we fucking don't.

Success for Drumpf means turning us into a banana republic.

[NRaleighLiberal]

1. *****THIS***** is what we are up against.

[BeyondGeography]

2. At what?

[bravenak]

3. I certainly don't

[Alice11111]

61. No, he is insane and mean! IF he were a sane, reasonable ,

person w good policies, who valued the good of our country, then, yes. (I think that is what Anderson means). Its not like I dont want him to succeed because we didnt win (and they cheated again).
Look at him, do you think after 70 years, he is going to have a complete change of who he is. Get real!
Just look at what he's done since being in office

He is Fuckin, nutzo crazy. He is destroying people and the world already. It is going to get worse, faster and faster. Do you want him to succeed at that?

[sarcasmo]

4. CNN needs to trade Anderson to Fox for Shep Smith.

Make it like a pro sports trade.

[SHRED]

6. Good trade

[DemocratSinceBirth]

7. It could be a three way trade. FOX can have Gretta back.

[Alice11111]

53. !!!

[roamer65]

26. I am really loving me some Shep Smith!

The dude rocks.

[Leghorn21]

44. Yes yes YES!! eom

[dalton99a]

5. Unbelievable bullshit.

Trump must not succeed.

[guillaumeb]

8. And his proof for this claim is?

What exactly?

[marybourg]

30. HE wants tRump to succeed. nt

[tinrobot]

9. I want him to secede

n/t

[democratisphere]

10. What planet does Anderson Cooper live on?

Anderson must be from the planet "Deplorable".

[redstateblues]

11. Chris Matthews says the same thing.

I don't believe it for one second. After 1 1/2 hours of being beat up by Trump they become liars as well.

[JHB]

12. Kremlin Don's idea of success is more money and adulation for him...period.

It's a measure of success that's incompatible with being a successful US president.

So no, we don't.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

13. Succeed how? By tanking Obamacare? Taking away women's reproductive rights?

Destroying the environment, Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid? Turning all public schools into fundy-Christianity-pushing charter schools? Supporting and promoting racism, misogyny, and homophobia, and seeding all levels of government with their practitioners?

Fuck that evil rightwing shit! I want Trump to FAIL and fail so spectacularly his flaming remains can be seen from space.

[NurseJackie]

14. Anderson... you fucking ninny! NO! We want America to SURVIVE, not for him to succeed.

What exactly are your qualifications again? Pretty face, charming giggle, blue blood ... clearly an ability to engage in rational thinking aren't requirements for your job.

Tee-hee-hee! You're much better at making pee-pee puns.

[Dave Starsky]

15. If he means at suffocating himself in his sleep...

then I'm all for it.

Otherwise, WTF could he possibly be talking about?

[smirkymonkey]

68. Thank YOU!

[benld74]

16. What is Anderson smoking? Nt

[Maraya1969]

17. Remember Megan Kelly said that Trump tried to buy her and then tried to scare her?

I watched Piers Morgan become a bumblefuck idiot on Twitter defended his buddy
Trump. I wonder if Trump is paying him.

That is no excuse though. Especially for Matthews or Cooper

And I am not saying that I know anything because I don't. It is just a guess at why they are acting this way

[Zambero]

18. To succeed at what?

Trump "succeeding" would involve terminating his time in office, preferably yesterday.

[dhill926]

19. fucking lightweight....

[Initech]

20. He has been a complete embarassment and utter failure.

He's going to start World War III if he's not careful.

[Alice11111]

63. Bannon will engineer it...WWIII...his legacy

[Initech]

69. Bannon should be behind bars.

[geek tragedy]

21. I hope he fails in everything, including his efforts

to forestall the consequences of heart disease.

[colsohlibgal]

22. No Way

I hear in my mind John McGlaughlin (sp?) on his show shouting "Wrong!!".

[SamKnause]

23. The fuck I do.

I want him to fail at everything he attempts.

Fuck Trump !!!

Fuck Anderson Cooper !!!

Fuck Republicans !!!

They destroy everything they touch.

Their policies and actions are EVIL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If they succeed, America fails !!!

EVIL !!!!!!!!

Fuck them all !!!!!!!!!

[putitinD]

29. +1000

[Corgigal]

24. Most Americans want America to succeed...

Use of words are important, media learn this.

[Cha]

25. Is he fucking nuts.. does he not know the fucker's agenda? Did he not

see his latest lying fest, maniacal presser?

[NNadir]

27. Not me. This racist pig is not my President. n/t

[CentralMass]

28. I'd like to see him succeed in getting impeached.

[Quayblue]

31. Rec and Hell naw.

Anderson is tripping.

[HassleCat]

32. Well, sure, Anderson, but...

We don't want him to succeed at the stuff HE wants to do.

[Beartracks]

33. Most Americans didn't vote for him, Anderson. Plus...

... his support has only fallen since Election Day and the inauguration.

===============

[Lifelong Protester]

34. Fail, fast!!

[avebury]

35. I really don't think so.

[bdamomma]

36. not me

[Lotusflower70]

37. Wth?

If Trump succeeds, the country fails.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

38. No, most Americans want a president that

Is capable to succeed for the betterment of the country.
45 is not capable.

[Guilded Lilly]

39. Anderson used to be a journalist.

[AgadorSparticus]

40. Big miss there, Anderson! Did you NOT see all the people protesting him?

NO ONE is hoping he succeeds. That means fascism will reign down on us. Ugh. Enough with the corporate mouthpiece bullshit.

[brooklynite]

41. I agree - most people DO want him to succeed...

...that doesn't not mean they believe that he is.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

57. Succeed at what?

Deporting 11,000,000 undocumented workers?
Getting in trade wars with Mexico, Germany, and China?
Returning glbtq people back to the closet?
Sending in the Guard to "police" predominately African American communities ?
Building A Wall?
Muslim Ban?

I don't see any data that suggest "most" Americans support these actions.

[adigal]

42. After hearing Jeffrey Lord normalize this press conference and say Trump was charming

I turned off CNN. I can't listen to this craziness.

[thegoose]

56. That turd

Dumpster has all of these gnomelike bridgekeepers (read: Kellyanne Conway) waiting to jump out and fart out their constant lies, but their rationality only extends to the slathering, rivening Dumpsteteers, whose populace surely at this point couldn't even possibly fill a high school football stadium.

God, I hope not.

[kairos12]

43. I want him to fail like the Titanic.

[msanthrope]

45. Sure....if by "succeed" you mean "fail to use nuclear weapons." nt

[iluvtennis]

46. DISAGREE. Anderson Cooper et al still trying to normalize the turd called Trump nt

[dawn frenzy adams]

47. Speak for yourself, Anderson.

If you want him to succeed Anderson, not only will voting rights and women's rights be in the cross-hairs, but so will your LGBT rights. If we do not break the monopoly that 6 corporations have on what 300 million people see, hear, and read, there is no way we can have a thriving democracy. It was these 6 corporations that made billions from propagating Trump as a qualified candidate for the presidency. He could not have won the Republican primary or the election without the Mainstream Media. They more than any entity are responsible for the mess this country is in. These are the same people that ignored stolen elections, cheer-lead illegal wars, and allowed GWB to destroy the economy. We do not have a responsible Fourth Estate. We have a Fifth Column.

Anderson is indicative of the millionaire mediocre spokes-morons that pollute our airwaves. He is what you get when 6 corporations control the entire media landscape. Go to hell Anderson! Go to hell CNN! Go to hell Time Warner!

[roamer65]

48. I want all fascists to fail, including Dump.

[Rex]

49. He is worth around 100 mil so probably is talking just about his caste. nt

nt

[DemKittyNC]

50. What the hell is he thinking?

Is he literally trying to normalize everything that tRump has done and is doing now? Are we back on that bandwagon? See how that goes for you Coopy-boy, with tRumps constant war on the media. He has already normalized you as being fake news - now is NOT the time to prove him right!!!!

[YOHABLO]

51. succeed in what?

[world wide wally]

52. Fuck AC 360 times over

Idiot

[Lucinda]

54. Actually, I'd be fine, if he got his facts sorted out and did his job. I don't want anyone

to suffer. But he wont and he can't, so yep, add me to the no I don't column.

[pablo_marmol]

55. WTF?!?!?!?!?!

Like the first reponder said......infuriating what we're up against!!!!!!

[elmac]

58. Well, guess I can't be counted in the most Americans club. nt

[elmac]

59. Maybe Putin has something on Cooper

another golden shower?

[Raine1967]

60. Here's the thing:

Most Americans with a functioning brain knew he was going to fuck this up on a colossal scale.

Most Americans want the executive office to succeed.

It doesn;t matter if we want him to succeed -- he has made it clear he gives no fucks about the opinions of most of us.

This is a disaster and I think Cooper knows that.

I want him to leave the office he sits in. That would be a success.

[MFM008]

62. Cooper we want him arrested and or

I M P E A C H E D............................

[Skittles]

64. fuck that noise

the man is vile, sick, disgusting, UNFIT - I WANT HIM OUT

[still_one]

65. exactly DBS. Is cooper delusional?

[mikelewis]

66. No. Most Americans want him to secede...

[Spider Jerusalem]

67. Nope, I want him to fail in a Nixonian flameout that takes down most of his corrupt administration..

and results in impeachment, resignation, disgrace and bankruptcy.

[Caliman73]

70. and the party that supported him.

We can't forget that the Republican party and conservatives created Trump. They need to be kept away from the levers of power and let progressives fix all of the mess that they created.

[OnionPatch]

71. Pseudo-patriotic drivel.

I hate this stupid idea that we have to hope for our politicians to "succeed".

Do we want our polticians to succeed, as in improve the lives of our citizens and our standing in the world? Of course. Do we want them to succeed in implementing ill-conceived policies that DO NOT do that? Of course not.
