White House Communications Director Steven Cheung whined on social media Wednesday after CNN host Abby Phillip called out President Donald Trump over the Iran war and his head-spinning foreign policy since he returned to office.

“Totally unhinged @abbydphillip of CNN has no sense at all,” Cheung wrote Wednesday on X.

His comments came minutes after the “CNN Newsnight” host responded to ex-Rep. Peter Meijer’s (R-Mich.) suggestion that the jump in oil prices in recent weeks is “so much less dramatic” than the administration’s expectations, and that Trump’s low polling numbers would still be similar even if Iran capitulated on Day 1.

“But don’t you think Americans are rational about paying a dollar more per gallon at the gas [pump]?” Phillip asked.

She went on, “I think they’re saying very clearly they do not think that this step needed to be taken.”

Phillip’s show aired not long after Trump wrapped up his prime-time address on the war, and she noted that the president’s speech lacked “new insights” on his administration’s objectives.

“The president basically repeated a lot of the things that he’s been saying in Truth Social posts, except he said it out loud,” the host said.

She later teed up a discussion on Trump’s insistence that America’s allies in Europe clean up his mess in the Strait of Hormuz, despite the president not consulting NATO before diving headfirst into the conflict in late February.

She proceeded to argue that Trump threw NATO’s future into question by not asking Denmark to expand U.S. access to military bases in Greenland before threatening to annex the semi-autonomous Arctic territory, escalating an international crisis late last year.

That’s around the time when Cheung made his post on X.

“Complete lightweight who has no idea what she is talking about on foreign policy,” he continued. “It’s now clear why her ratings are in the shitter.” (“CNN NewsNight” was the network’s top show in the adult 25-54 demographic in February, per Nielsen data reported by Adweek.)
