Gayle King Responds Calmly to Trump's Talent Criticism

President Donald Trump recently criticized CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King on Truth Social, claiming her career was over and accusing her of lacking talent and courage for not supporting him. King responded calmly and graciously, stating she likes her job and intends to continue doing it well, expressing that she is "sorry he feels that way." She acknowledged joining a list of celebrities Trump has targeted, including Bruce Springsteen, Taylor Swift, and Stephen Colbert. Trump's attacks appear linked to the recent merger of CBS's parent company Paramount with Skydance Media and a $16 million settlement Paramount paid to Trump over a lawsuit, which some critics view as an attempt to appease the president. Despite Trump's ongoing public tirades, King maintains a composed stance and a history of candidly sharing her views on Trump, including past criticisms during his presidency. The feud highlights the continuing tensions between Trump and media figures who do not align with him politically.
