CNN Laughs At Trump Over This

CNN is under fire again—this time after microphones picked up on-air laughter as anchor Dana Bash interrupted a prestigious ceremony where President Donald Trump was awarded a brand-new FIFA Peace Prize. For many viewers, it was yet another example of how CNN treats the 45th president with open disrespect.

President Trump attended the event at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, where FIFA President Gianni Infantino honored him with the inaugural 2025 FIFA Peace Prize. The moment was ceremonial, dignified, and carried out by U.S. Marines, demonstrating the global significance of the award.

FIFA praised Trump as “a dynamic leader” whose diplomatic actions have created opportunities for peace, dialogue, and stability around the world. Many Americans saw the recognition as long overdue, especially after Trump’s historic peace agreements and continued efforts to reduce global tensions.

But while the world’s largest sports organization showed respect, CNN couldn’t resist mocking him.

When Dana Bash cut into the ceremony, viewers heard someone at CNN laughing. Bash herself seemed to suppress a chuckle while trying to “explain what just happened,” making the moment even more unprofessional.

Here’s how CNN reacted on air:

DANA BASH: “Alright, we’ll keep an eye on the ceremony at the Kennedy Center. But let me take a moment to explain what you just saw—” (with audible laughter in the background)

“The head of FIFA presented the President of the United States with the very first FIFA Peace Prize — an award that was introduced only recently, shortly after President Trump was passed over for the Nobel Peace Prize…”

She then read FIFA’s official explanation, which emphasizes honoring leaders who work to end conflict and promote unity in a divided world.

Political analyst Amy Walter chimed in with a remark about flattering the president with something gold and shiny, prompting more light laughter between both women.

For millions of conservative Americans who already distrust mainstream outlets like CNN, the segment confirmed what they’ve been saying for years: the network cannot cover President Trump without inserting mockery, bias, or disrespect.

Instead of reporting on an international honor, CNN chose to laugh.

The clip has since gone viral, sparking renewed criticism of the network and raising questions about professionalism, fairness, and the media’s treatment of conservative leaders.
