CNN host Anderson Cooper at the Turner Upfront on Wednesday at Madison Square Garden in New York. During an interview on his show Friday night, CNN host Anderson Cooper interrupted a conservative pundit with a not-so-subtle jab that he later regretted. Cooper told Jeffrey Lord, a supporter of the president, that if Trump “took a dump on his desk,” he would still defend him.
