CNN tries to corner Ben Carson with Trump's 10 commandments comment, backfires instantly [VIDEOS]

Former President Donald Trump made an appearance at the Faith and Freedom Coalition conference in Washington, DC last weekend. In the midst of his remarks, he turned the spotlight on Louisiana's Republican governor, who had just signed a new bill requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms.

With the crowd erupting in applause, Trump asked, “Who likes the Ten Commandments, by the way, to go up in school?” He proceeded to address those opposed to the idea, bluntly stating, “They think it's such a bad thing. I said, 'Has anyone read the… You shall not steal, shall you…?' I mean, has anyone read this amazing stuff? It's unbelievable, they don't want me to go up. It's a crazy world.”

CNN, always looking for an opportunity to pounce on anything Trump-related, took advantage of Trump's endorsement of the Ten Commandments display, hoping to create a buzz. Their target was none other than Trump's former Republican presidential candidate and former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Ben Carson, whom they interviewed on Saturday.

Carson left the CNN reporter baffled, refusing to be caught in his trap. Undeterred by the skewed line of questioning, Carson emphasized, “This is not about President Trump. This is about what's happening to the moral fiber of our nation.” He noted the crucial role these moral principles play in fostering respect and good behavior among people, especially at a young age.

Unmoved by the host's attempts to steer the conversation into an attack on Christianity, Carson emphasized the importance of teaching values ​​and emphasized the freedom of the people of Louisiana to express their opinions through the ballot box.

In a tête-à-tête that left the CNN host uneasy, Carson's logical stance underscored the unfortunate decline of the network's journalistic integrity.

This incident serves as another egregious example of how CNN's commitment to “facts first” has been replaced by a questionable practice of selective reporting, which biases its coverage toward a predetermined narrative.
