CNN'S Chris Cuomo went on a wild anti-Trump rant and called Donald "the worst president ever."
The anchor made the comments after the president pardoned a slew of his acquaintances and blocked the new Covid stimulus bill.
Cuomo made the comments on CNNCredit: CNN Cuomo made the bold statement that Trump's actions on the run-up to Christmas have confirmed he is the "worst president ever."
"I hope you decide to accept it once and for all. It is the gift of ultimate clarity about this outgoing president. Democrats, Independents, real Republicans, you all now know just based on the last 24 hours alone this guy is the worst ever."
The anchor then hammered in his comments, saying "he is the worst president we have ever seen, period."
"He has not only proven to be incompetent, but he is indeed truly inhumane. He has denied the hungry. He has denied our warriors. He has denied a pandemic, and he does not give a damn about anything but lying about it all and faking his own greatness.
"That is the truth. It is demonstrated by everything we have seen. It must be his legacy."

"And those who have ignored or empowered him. Those who have solicited this brand of his own horrible actions towards others are complicit," he said.
"He must be remembered as the worst, if only for this alone and if only this is what we had seen it would already make him the worst on top of years of perfidy of deceit of lies of viciousness to those who need protection consistently."
Turning directly to the American public, Cuomo said that "as a country" this behavior cannot be tolerated.
“This has to be a bottom," he said. "He must be seen as the worst, and we must run away from him and this type of behavior as fast as we ever collectively as a country before."

Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, and Jared Kushner's father, were among multiple pardons and three commutations from Trump.
Stone, who calls himself the “dirty trickster”, told Fox News: "I have an enormous debt of gratitude to God Almighty for giving the president the strength and the courage to recognize that my prosecution was a completely politically-motivated witch hunt."
Trump also pardoned Manafort, his former campaign chairman, and Stone, his longtime informal adviser, the White House revealed on Wednesday.
As noted by The New York Times, both men refused to cooperate with prosecutors in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.
Manafort lied to prosecutors after initially agreeing to cooperate with Mueller, and served nearly two years in prison for tax and bank fraud, witness tampering conspiracies, and illegal foreign lobbying.
Meanwhile, Stone lied to Congress to protect Trump and did not cooperate in Mueller’s probe.
