CNN’s Jake Tapper speaks with “Sesame Street” icon Elmo after his kind-hearted check-in with people online garnered thousands of replies and opened up a conversation about mental health. #CNN #News
It speaks to the desperate state of our country that millions of Americans honestly and lovingly reached out to their friend Elmo to say they are not good. The love Elmo gave back can make us all feel a little better....Elmo Truly Loves You!
Please! A can of paint could get the last couple of generations to start going over their "trauma". "Oh Noes Can of Paint, I just saw a trailer today that had Awkwafina in it, She's so problematic I can't understand Why any Movie company would cast Her!"😥 "So traumatized today, I went down a rabbit hole of 80's music and Discovered how misogynistic things were, How is Motley Crue and Guns N Roses Not in Jail?? What were my parents thinking? REEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" 🤣🤣
@@jay1373 If you were taught that at Civics class, you were deceived. What's the point of having a state? You paying taxes and getting nothing in exchange? Does not exist in the USA a modicum of public education, some minimum healthcare, a bit of housing - and some law and order protection? Isn't all of that the state helping you, a bit? In civilized countries, there's more help to people, and people live safer, happier lives. I highly recommend you to look for videos of American expats and travelers telling their experiences of having a disease or accident in other country, going to a hospital, getting good care, and not being bankrupt in the process. Or getting an education. That's what happens when the state's budget is oriented to the people and not to the military, and when its goal is to help the people and not the corporations (cutting taxes to them - which impoverishes the state and makes it unable to help people). Ever wondered why there's one political party that always talks about enhancing the military, cutting taxes to the companies - and eliminating school lunches, food coupons, and Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, as their ultimate goal? And tells you that's unfair to help some people, that fairness is not helping anyone? Jesus Christ teachings, anyone? One country under God, or under what? So, it is taught in Civics class. That's why you think that your Independence War was a revolution. It wasn't.
@@ryko1478 yah that’s a good point, there was that documentary about the guy who actually created Elmo. But no Hensen, no muppets, no Sesame Street, no Elmo. So cool that he laid a foundation for others to be inspired by
Elmo, I don't do social media so I'm only now hearing your question. I'm loving life and thanks for asking. You and your Sesame Street buddies are such a positive force in our lives. Thank you.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope 🤞 this year brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 I’m originally from Canada 🇨🇦 grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
@@iwroteinbernie I really didn’t. The OP made the point that it’s unfortunate that Elmo is burdened with other peoples trauma as a result of his friendly post. My point is that Elmo is made out of felt and is not a human with thoughts or emotions so she’s unable to even read or process any of the responses much less empathize. It’s a guy making a puppets mouth move and likely a team of people getting paid to run a twitter/X account for said puppet as if it was alive and autonomous.
I thought it was Big Bird that Cruz had a fight with? Although, it's certainly possible that Cruz has been triggered by many of the Sesame Street residents.
Honestly, guys... we need sesame street to be bigger than they are culturally! We've forgotten how to be kind. My little 1 is autistic and sesame street had taught her so much! She loves sesame street! We watch it everyday and even I who didn't grow up watching them I've been able to see how important their work is. I feel much happier watching them and seeing how my little 1 enjoys them gives a joy like no other. Much love to the 🌎 we need it... be kind friends, at the end of the day we are all the same!❤❤❤
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope 🤞 this year brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 I’m originally from Canada 🇨🇦 grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
We don’t get much exposure to Sesame Street here in the UK. But I think if kids here were able to, it might help them learn a few life lessons in a language that’s accessible. It’s dealt with a lot of subject really well, and sensitively 😊
This is the type of news that puts smiles on faces, certainly did for me. We need more "Nice news" in our lives, with all the bad stuff we hear every day, you'd almost forget that there is still joy and nice things in life, Elmo just reminded us of that.

I was kinda surprised CNN didn’t show President Biden’s classy response. Other major media did, and it shows what a kind compassionate leader he is and the man I choose to lead America!🇺🇸❤️
The Muppets have always had a very special place in my heart. It wasn't around when I was growing up but thankfully I found them as an adult. Yes I watched Sesame Street because I really liked their message of kindness. I thank Jim Henson for all of his creative ideas throughout the years we had that magical genius in our lives. Keep up the good work Elmo!! You are simply the best!
I ❤ Elmo for real. Elmo always makes me smile and my kids loved him too. Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers raised me. I love how that tweet really resonated with so many people. Makes you realize that everyone needs to feel heard and acknowledged ❤
Thanks Jake! I watched “Elmo’s World “ all the time with my kiddos. It’s nice to be reminded of a simpler time. I caught you on Kimmel and will be ordering your new book 😊
This has really touched me as it has most everyone today, the show as well as elmo has greatly been a part of our lives for a very long time. Elmo has brought smiles to me as a kid and still dose when he makes another child smile the way i did. Thank you for checking on everyone elmo, we appreciate your love and concern.
Honestly I am really impressed with how this was handled. This could have been a PR nightmare, but Elmo handled it in the literally best way possible. Accepting that his friends (us) are not doing ok, and that it was ok that we felt that way, and he was still glad he asked.
I know that trauma dumping can be difficult for a lot of people, but I’m honestly kind of glad to see that a bunch of people who were struggling felt safe to share. I think BECAUSE it was in response to Elmo, they were less worried about being attacked by others and I think we all need some space to share how we’re really feeling. But yeah - this whole thing makes me smile.
Sometimes I give the short answer. "Fine". Sometimes I give the answer that usually gives them the look of, " I wish I didn't ask". Blood cancer, 2 different chemo drugs, etc. Yeah, doing fine.
This was so sweet. I grew up with the 70s/80s version of Sesame Street and it makes me happy that they are still around making kids laugh and teaching them. I know I def. benefited from them as a child. Thank you CNN for highlighting this.
Life for me has been so hard my mom passed away few months ago and my wife at a young age is in a nursing home with dementia.So this was a great idea with Elmo
Elmo is just the sweetest. Elmo is so right, it's important to check in with those around us and with ourselves. My mom, whenever she'd come in from work or just running errands, she'd say she needed a few minutes to collect her thoughts.
Once you turn off social media and conduct life in a more "human way", e.g., time with family/friends, a walk in the park, reading a good book, enjoying a nice, home-cooked meal, you suddenly realize that actually, you are doing great! "It's the media, stupid!".......especially Far Right media that's making people "feel" much, much worse than they actually are. Take care of yourself, folks......
It's also the cost of living vs. most people's earning ability. People are depressed because they are working themselves to death for zero or even negative reward. This is why they don't walk, recreate or socialize with loved ones. They are too tired and just need to eat, decompress and sleep for the 5 hours they're allowed, before going right back to it again. No amount of "deep belly breathing" is going to fix the chronic, wholesale exploitation of labor and consumers alike in this country.
@@starshake8998 "People are depressed because they are working themselves to death for zero or even negative reward.".....important mental health tip. Don't use the media headlines to form opinions. Do 30 minutes of fact-finding. One example, the average hours worked per week has declined over the last 20 years or so. There HAS been some issues, though. For example, the average hourly wage has not increased in parallel with the cost of living, so most people have slightly less expendable income than their parents. This, too, is improving fast as the Feds, states and unions are adopting higher minimum wages and securing better contracts, We have never had a perfect world and never will, but relatively-speaking Americans are vastly better off now than previous generations. Examples are numerous, e.g., more people with health insurance due to Obamacare, we're living longer (minus the COVID setback), and critical medications are becoming less expensive (Bidens recent cap on some prescription drugs, e.g.).....many reasons to feel gratitude versus frustration, but you need to use quality facts to do so.
I was born in 1970 and I grew up with Sesame Street too. I am overcome with how touched people are by the simplest of gestures with in my opinion, is what absolutely is one of the meanings in life. Please don't discount this. This is love and heart and life. Who doesn't do better with positivity in their life?

Love you Elmo and Jake, this is the highlight of my day watching you two have a gentle loving and validating discussion ❤ only please let’s stop using the word trauma - dumping especially when we’re the one asking and genuinely wanting to know How someone is feeling. This only feeds further into people’s shame and the overall stigma of mental health

It wasn't just the US though. Several of those tweets came from across the world.
T pain isn’t broke and he feels depressed
@@Derah_OG indeed, Kindness and love should know no boundaries, cheers from Aus.
@@AbimaelLopez-hz3qq almost as if wealth isn't directly connected to mental health
It's not just Americans. When I read things like this it depresses me that Americans think they're the only people who exist.
I wish we did a better job teaching each other kindness.
I love you too Elmo.
It's sad that some people still see kindness as weakness
This is the most human and touching thing I've seen in awhile. Thank you, Elmo. Thank you, Jake. Thank you, Samantha.
Elmo the Mister Rogers of our time. If Elmo gets people talking about mental health and how to help, he deserves applause.
Please! A can of paint could get the last couple of generations to start going over their "trauma".

Elmo is a regular at kaotic.
@@pycellesbeard9728, gosh, who raised these wussies?
When Jim Henson was alive he confirmed Elmo is trans
Very true
Petition to get Guy Smilie a regular segment on CNN.
Didn't he O.D.?
That’s actually a brilliant idea lmao
He even posted his resume!
I'll sign it
I support and approve of this idea.
Thank you Jake Tapper for doing this.
Yeah - Jake Tapper and CNN are the problem... Elmo knows that. Don't you know that too?
Thank you Elmo :)
Weak liberals 😂
Thanks Elmo, maybe you can show our elected officials that HELPING the needy is their primary job.
It's not the Governments job to help you.
Unless you're an illegal immigrant.@@fauxque5057
💯💯💯💯👍👍👍
@@fauxque5057
What is the government's job?
@@jay1373 If you were taught that at Civics class, you were deceived. What's the point of having a state?
You paying taxes and getting nothing in exchange? Does not exist in the USA a modicum of public education, some minimum healthcare, a bit of housing - and some law and order protection? Isn't all of that the state helping you, a bit?
In civilized countries, there's more help to people, and people live safer, happier lives.
I highly recommend you to look for videos of American expats and travelers telling their experiences of having a disease or accident in other country, going to a hospital, getting good care, and not being bankrupt in the process. Or getting an education. That's what happens when the state's budget is oriented to the people and not to the military, and when its goal is to help the people and not the corporations (cutting taxes to them - which impoverishes the state and makes it unable to help people).
Ever wondered why there's one political party that always talks about enhancing the military, cutting taxes to the companies - and eliminating school lunches, food coupons, and Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, as their ultimate goal? And tells you that's unfair to help some people, that fairness is not helping anyone? Jesus Christ teachings, anyone? One country under God, or under what?
So, it is taught in Civics class. That's why you think that your Independence War was a revolution. It wasn't.
This was truly the most precious thing. I am grateful for this innocent and meaningful moment in time .
I have so much respect for Jim Hensen and legacy he left
Pretty sure he wasn't involved with the creation of Elmo
@@ryko1478 yah that’s a good point, there was that documentary about the guy who actually created Elmo.
But no Hensen, no muppets, no Sesame Street, no Elmo. So cool that he laid a foundation for others to be inspired by
Well, I'm feeling better knowing Elmo is doing okay. :)
Crawled into bed, exhausted, and watched this. What a smile it put on my face. I will sleep easy tonight. Thanks.
Kudos to Tapper for keeping together this entire segment 😂
It was nice to see Jake smiling!
It really is. He seems very...frustrated is a way to put it.
Fake Tapper.
@@mhall801And what facts do you have that lead to your opinion?

Elmo, I don't do social media so I'm only now hearing your question. I'm loving life and thanks for asking. You and your Sesame Street buddies are such a positive force in our lives. Thank you.
As much as I feel bad for the trauma dumbing Elmo is getting, it actually made me smile for this simple thing that put a smile on my face.

You can relax because Elmo is in fact not real and is actually a puppet incapable of independent thought or emotion
So, you don't feel bad for the grieving people, but for a fake muppet that has to "put up" with them. 🙄
@@MarkG-nl4oq You kinda missed the point.

Remember when Ted Cruz decided to pick a fight with Elmo over Twitter?
No but, that is hilarious!
Sadly, I'm sure the right wing is going to find a problem with this.
☝️😲 Lizard people seem hostile towards Elmo, we should take away their warming rocks.
I thought it was Big Bird that Cruz had a fight with? Although, it's certainly possible that Cruz has been triggered by many of the Sesame Street residents.
Ted Cruz is a bad person, and bad people have problems with all of the good people. Hopefully Texas thinks more of themselves in future elections.

Sesame Street is so uplifting. I agree. Happy Birthday Elmo!
Yes it is!
Remember when a certain group was trying to cancel PBS?!?
International Treasure 😊😅
180 million people responded wow!
That was the number of views (which has since risen to 202.8 million).
18 thousand people responded to the question.
Elmo really does give hope
Elmo. We need you buddy.
I'm so happy this is even happening. There are people that want us to completely forget how important the Muppets are!
They'd rather make fun of them then help show the importance they bring to children
Sesame Street continues to handle the most difficult subjects with ease & grace.
Awww- thanks, Elmo! Many people don't CARE how others are doing. Shows how a simple question reveals a great deal.
If only more stuff like this appeared on the news networks
This is the type of news that puts smiles on faces, certainly did for me.
We need more "Nice news" in our lives, with all the bad stuff we hear every day, you'd almost forget that there is still joy and nice things in life, Elmo just reminded us of that.

You like sniffing kids too!! 😂😂😂
I was kinda surprised CNN didn’t show President Biden’s classy response. Other major media did, and it shows what a kind compassionate leader he is and the man I choose to lead America!🇺🇸❤️
We cried when Steve from Blues Clues came back, and now we’re trauma dumping on Elmo like he’s our therapist. Ooooomf the millennials are not alright.
Hon, I'm a Boomer, and *_I_* dumped.
😂😂😂
No we are not 😂
Not just millennials. Everyone! It's sad. Unfortunate.
No we are not alright. We been through a lot….😒 but i think that kinda goes for everyone at this point.
This made me cry. Thanks for this.
This is the most wholesome thing I've seen in a long time.
Aww Elmo so cute and wholesome during this interview 😭🧸
Ppl forget, many of us grew up with Elmo. We feel safe with him. He always taught us to share our feelings ❤
