During a
CNN NewsNight panel discussion, O’Leary defended Trump’s reported
decision to reject a $15 million settlement from Paramount amid his lawsuit over a
60 Minutes interview with former Vice President
Kamala Harris.
As the debate heated up, with several panelists accusing Trump of cracking down on the free press, Welch then asked O’Leary, “I have a question. How do you guys constantly defend the biggest whining titty baby out there? He whines, cries nonstop. He’s the president of the United States. You’re defending that? It’s demeaning.”
“Excuse me, did all the executives at CBS lose their jobs on 60 Minutes? Yes or no? Yes,” replied O’Leary. “Was it a word salad edit? Yes.”
Welch doubled down, saying, “He is a titty baby, a whiner. It’s pathetic that you defend him.”
