Ana Navarro snaps at ex-Trump official over attacks on women: 'Have you no shame?'

Ana Navarro, a senior political commentator on CNN, snapped at a former Trump campaign official on Monday night after the official defended the president's attacks against NBC News's Kristen Welker during an interview over the weekend.

Welker traveled to Wisconsin to interview President Donald Trump for her Sunday show, "Meet the Press." The interview became combative after Welker challenged Trump to provide evidence for his claim that the 2020 general election was stolen from him. Trump abruptly ended the interview after that, and made some disturbing comments about Welker as he stormed off set.

Trump called Welker stupid and crooked, and questioned her integrity, attacks he's levied against other female journalists like CNN's Kaitlan Collins who have asked him tough questions.

"You’re a one-sided crooked network,” Trump said to Welker as he stormed off. “Let’s call it quits because I’ve had enough. Thank you, darling. Have a good time."

Navarro argued on CNN's "NewsNight" with host Abby Phillip that Trump's comments were part of a "horrible" pattern of behavior toward women. Caroline Sunshine, former deputy communications director for Trump's 2024 campaign, attempted to rebut those claims by arguing that she never witnessed Trump mistreat women while she worked with him.

Sunshine also told Navarro to "give [her] a break," which sent Navarro over the edge.

"Have you no shame as a woman that we hear him call [women] ugly and piggy and crooked and liars and stupid and bad journalists?" Navarro seethed. "Have you absolutely no solidarity with women? Oh my god, I can't believe you sit here and tell me to give you a break. When in this network, we hear him tell our journalist that she's not fit to be a journalist because she doesn't smile. How dare you tell me to give you a break? Have some shame."
