Kaitlan Collins Fires Back at Trump After He Says She Should Smile

The #WhiteHouse press pool witnessed a stunning confrontation on February 3, 2026, as President #DonaldTrump personally attacked CNN Chief White House Correspondent #KaitlanCollins in the Oval Office. While Collins was pressing the President on the heavily redacted #EpsteinFiles and the lack of justice for survivors, Trump attempted to shut down the inquiry by calling her the "worst reporter" and telling her, "I don't think I've ever seen you smile."

This #BreakingNews report analyzes the viral moment where Collins hit back, reminding the President, "I’m asking you about survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, Mr. President," before being talked over. We dive into the #CNN statement supporting their "tenacious" journalist, the #Inquisitr breakdown of the #JusticeDepartment’s 3-million-page document dump, and the mounting criticism of Trump’s recent patterns of lashing out at female reporters—including his "quiet, piggy" remark to Catherine Lucey. From the #Signalgate leaks to the #2026Midterms gender gap, we explore why this "smile" demand has triggered a massive #SocialMediaReaction and renewed focus on the #Epstein investigation.
