Vice President J.D. Vance Tells Kaitlan Collins 'Have Some Fun'

Vice President J.D. Vance said in an interview with Megyn Kelly that CNN chief White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins should "have some fun" after he was shown a clip of President Donald Trump berating her for not smiling, Vance said.

President Donald Trump interrupted and berated CNN correspondent Kaitlan Collins during an Oval Office bill signing, calling her "the worst reporter" and saying he had "never seen [her] smile" while Collins asked about survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, Collins posted the video.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt defended Trump's bluntness, officials said, while Collins said the president's response "shed some light" on his views about the files, according to Collins' post.

Released Justice Department documents included a classified 2017 memo alleging a confidential source said Donald Trump visited Jeffrey Epstein's home and contained heavy redactions that survivors criticized, according to the files.

Vance declined to answer questions about a possible 2028 presidential run and said family considerations, including that he and second lady Usha Vance are expecting their fourth child this July, will be a "huge factor," according to his interview.
