Anderson Cooper on Rod Blagojevich claim: Just nuts

CNN's Anderson Cooper spars with former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who calls himself a "political prisoner" days after being pardoned by President Trump. #CNN #News

Susan Collins sure sounds like he learned his lesson am I right??

[davidkojusola]

AC is pissed off and I can feel it from the screen

[mrmartin]

What a train wreck, why isn't rod staying at home with his family and just shutting up ??🙄🙄🙄

[rubcan]

" I am a political prisoner" that sounds like someone Trump will pardon!!! 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

[caitlinbriggs]

"What's sad is that you hadn't learned that when it mattered." BOOM.

@cnn I was really waiting for him to say "There was no quid pro quo, just listen to the recording...It was a perfect recording." "No other recording has ever been more perfect than that one...many many people have told me it was a perfect recording."

[T-Rex]

They only care about things that happen to them... Obviously

[AramaiJonassi]

I don't think I've ever seen Anderson kick someone's ass around like this or this pissed off in my life. I wish he was like this every day.

[lyftuberninjaworkaholic]

Never seen Anderson so mad, did he just say "BULLSHIT" on TV? He pissed.

[newenglandneisha]

Oh, I understand now, he's one of those liars that believes his own lies...

[eldorabrogan]

One of the greatest interview I’ve heard in along time!! You did your homework and were right on throughout this interview! Great job, Anderson!

[MachiavellisThePrince]

Accepting a presidential pardon is an acceptance of guilt with a commutation of a sentence. It is not an overturned conviction or expungement of a criminal record. A pardoned criminal can't reasonably say they are innocent after accepting a pardon.

Damn Anderson Cooper destroyed this man live on TV

[gregbrogan]

I love how Anderson got personal and emotional, even said "that's, frankly, just bullshit" but still seemed professional because it was appropriate! Nice job, Anderson!!

[dcwad]

Damn! Anderson Cooper got game! He's got that guy's number.

[kegsofvomitspit]

Dude had roughly eight years to find a way to spin this story in a way that makes him look good yet this is the best he can do? I’ve seen small children do a better job of bullsh*ting their way out trouble than this.

[TylerDuckBeard]

Wow, he's got a pair coming on national TV and presenting his stink for everyone to watch. Trump's fall will be epic.

[ryebread]

Damn Anderson went Matrix on this dude

[futballchannelzentertainme]

Anderson showed up with Blago's receipts and exact change. Dammn he "SHREDDED" whatever was left of his character, if any.

[regaugetswemoabelo]

Could the man say his piece without being derailed and interrupted? Anderson is behaving very professionally.
