President Trump skewered CNN White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins, eliciting laughs from other journalists after she pressed him during a media availability in the Oval Office Thursday, video shows.
Trump knocked the cable news network’s credibility and claimed Collins was buddy-buddy with former President Joe Biden after the reporter yelled out a question about Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trump was answering another question on whether Putin truly wants peace with Ukraine when Collins cut in.
“I believe he wants peace. I believe that President Putin — when I spoke to him yesterday, I mean, I know him very well — yeah, I think he wants peace. I think he would tell me if he didn’t, I think he’d like to see peace,” Trump said from the Resolute Desk.
