Caroline Sunshine and Ana Navarro fight on CNNCredit: CNNKey Points -
Caroline Sunshine, former Disney Channel star and ex-Trump aide, incensed Ana Navarro on CNN.
The former actress told Navarro to "give me a break" during a disagreement about Trump's treatment of female journalists.
Navarro exploded in an epic tirade against Sunshine: "Have you no shame as a woman?"
Ana Navarro grew more visibly angry than ever during an explosive live segment on CNN that saw The View cohost unleash an epic tirade on former Disney Channel star and ex-Donald Trump aide Caroline Sunshine.
During the tense moment earlier this week on network star Abby Phillip's nightly show, a panel of political experts broke down Trump's widely maligned exchange with Meet the Press' Kristen Welker that saw the president storm out of the interview.
During her CNN analysis, Navarro — a registered Republican — brought up Trump's well-documented treatment of other female journalists, including the network's Kaitlan Collins, whom he regularly attacks.
"Give me a break," Sunshine, who acted in Disney's Shake It Up series before beginning her political career, interrupted in the moment.

Navarro then snapped, turning toward Sunshine to deliver a scorching response.
"Have you no shame as a woman? The way he called them ugly and piggy and crooked and liars and stupid and bad journalists? Have you absolutely no solidarity with women?" Navarro shouted as Sunshine attempted to speak over her.
Navarro continued, referencing Trump's repeated insults about Collins: "Oh my God. I can't believe you sit here and tell me to give you a break when, in this network, we hear him tell our journalists that she's not fit to be a journalist because she doesn't smile. How dare you tell me to give you a break. Have some shame, why don't you?"
Underneath Navarro, Sunshine could be heard attempting to make her point against Welker. "I'm sorry, I worked with Kirsten when I worked at the White House," Sunshine said. "For you to say that you're going up against women? No, Kristen was tougher on him in that interview than I have seen most… that's probably the toughest interview I've seen to date."

She continued, "He pushed up against her because she was a tough journalist, not because she was a woman."
Philip cut in to calm the moment and asked Sunshine why Trump would "tell a woman that she doesn't smile enough when she's working, asking him a question" during an official press conference.
"Because he's an equal opportunity offender," Sunshine replied, which further angered the panel. Sunshine later added, "Let me explain how the game works, because Kaitlan got something out of that exchange, too," and estimated that "so many journalists have made their careers in this country off of being combative with President Trump, Kaitlan Collins included."
Navarro summarized the exchange in a social media post of her own, where she wrote that "some people have no damn shame" and that she has "no patience and even less respect for people —particularly women — who blindly defend Trump's ad-hominem attacks on women journalists. Zero."
