CNN's Brooke Baldwin slams Trump's supporters for taunting Blasey Ford: 'They have no soul, compassion, or decency'

A clearly shocked and appalled Brooke Baldwin opened her CNN slot Wednesday with a righteous rant targeting President Trump's attacks on Christine Blasey Ford at his Tuesday night rally, and said the audience was setting a bad example for children.

"We already know who President Trump is, how he feels about these things, that he can lack civility and decency on the most sensitive of issues," Baldwin said. "What strikes me even more today is the crowd, these faces behind him as the president spoke last night."

"Look at them," she said, as if describing animals in a zoo. "Men elbowing each other in laughter like you'd nudge your friend at a comedy club over a joke. And the women, standing behind them, doing the same. An entire crowd, cheering as if someone's life, her haunting personal painful experience, is all a show, all a political game, a punch line."

Then Baldwin urged her audience to look closely behind the president. "There's this little head sticking up. It's a little boy."

"On the same day the president says young men should be scared in America, a little boy listening to a crowd of adults cheering on this president who is attacking the credibility, the alleged experience of a woman who before a national audience described the worst day of her life," Baldwin said. "A day she says she was held down, sexually assaulted with a hand over her mouth, a day she feared she would be raped, perhaps killed."

"No matter where you fall on this issue," she added, "the scene was absent of soul, absent of compassion, absent of decency and respect that we should all share, left, right, center as Americans."
