CNN’s Clarissa Ward Claps Back After White House Calls Her a ‘Hot Mess’
"Imagine being a self-described ‘serious’ journalist at CNN and acting like a complete freak in public," the Rapid Response 47 account writes on X The post CNN’s Clarissa Ward Claps Back After White House Calls Her a ‘Hot Mess’ appeared first on TheWrap .
Clarissa Ward, a CNN journalist, responded to the White House's disparaging remarks on social media early Wednesday. In a video posted on Tuesday, Ward was seen dancing in an airport while on assignment. The White House's Rapid Response 47 account took offense to this light-hearted display, labeling her a "complete freak" and a "hot mess."
Ward's response to the White House's assault was a simple, "Dancing is good for the soul." The attack on Ward came just days after she encouraged her followers to embrace their quirks and not worry about what others think. The White House's history of targeting female journalists, particularly under President Donald Trump, has become a pattern.
Earlier this year, President Trump personally insulted Kaitlan Collins during a speech at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, comparing her to a trans actress. Collins acknowledged that such insults are commonplace in the Oval Office, but deemed this particular incident more significant due to its broader stage.
