CNN host Abby Phillip compared President Donald Trump to Batman on Monday night while criticizing his efforts to clean up crime in Washington, D.C. However, social media users thought the comparison made Trump look « cool. »
During the intro to CNN’s « NewsNight », Phillip mocked Trump as the « crime-fighter-in-chief » of the nation’s capital and compared him to the comic book character after the president’s announcement earlier in the day that the federal government would be cleaning up crime in the city.
« Donald Trump makes himself Batman and the nation’s capital is Gotham City », she said, adding, « The President of the United States has declared himself crime-fighter-in-chief, and he’s taking over Washington’s police force.
