Anderson Cooper Mocked Donald Trump for the Absurdly Skewed Poll His Campaign Sent Supporters, and Now Cooper Has a Poll Question of His Own
CNN

Ridiculist indeed.

After President Donald Trump's supporters were asked to rate his State of the Union address by answering a biased survey, Anderson Cooper featured the questions on 360's "Ridiculist" on Thursday night.

"How would you rate President Trump's State of the Union address?" asked Team Trump in the "Official State of the Union Approval Poll." Participants could choose between "Historic, Great, Good, or Other."


Additional questions included:

  • "Do you believe President Trump delivered a visionary speech of always choosing American Greatness?"
  • "Do you believe Democrats only say they don't want a wall to Harass our great President?"

Oy.

Cooper wanted to know what the "purpose" would be of "gathering this type of information," and asked why the president would "want the results of a skewed survey" in which all the choices mean "you, sir, are awesome."

Anderson Cooper then asked his viewers to also take a different version of the poll.

"How would you rate the president's survey?" Cooper asked. "embarrassing, utterly pointless, a shameless exercise in narcissism, other."

Watch below:

Some people thought it was satire.

Others struggled to accept that it was real.

Hard to tell these days.

Some options were missing.

Good job.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
