Former President Donald Trump made a dynamic entrance at a CNN town hall event in New Hampshire on Wednesday. The live 90-minute gathering, led by former chief White House correspondent and anchor Kaitlan Collins, sparked tensions as topics such as the contentious 2020 election, Trump's recent sexual battery case liability, and the events of January 6 arose. In response to the town hall, some individuals expressed dissatisfaction with Trump's performance, while others criticized CNN for hosting the event.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was among those who castigated CNN for allowing Trump to participate in its town hall. Ocasio-Cortez shared her disapproval via Twitter, stating that 'CNN should be ashamed of themselves.' She argued that the network had 'lost total control' of the event, which was perceived to be dominated with 'election disinformation, defenses of Jan 6th, and a public attack on a sexual abuse victim. The audience is cheering him on and laughing at the host.' Trump and Collins concluded the town hall around 9:10 pm, with the former President thanking attendees and expressing his love for New Hampshire.

During the town hall event, Trump defended a phone call that he had with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger after the 2020 election. Trump had pressed the Secretary of State to find enough votes to flip the state in his favor. The former Commander-in-Chief maintained that his actions were justified since he believed the election to be rigged. This controversial phone call is currently being investigated by a Georgia prosecutor in relation to attempts to overturn the state's 2020 election results.
