CNN “State of the Union” host Jake Tapper slammed the White House on Sunday for turning down invitations to appear on his show and discuss the many scandals roiling President Donald Trump’s administration.
Good for him.
Even though it will fall on deaf ears. Or perhaps I should say “scared shitless” ears.
Oh Jake, angry white men don’t do CNN to be yelled at, they do Fox so they can do the yelling.
The White House can’t even keep their story straight for Fox. What the heck are they going to say on CNN or God forbid, MSNBC?
And Congressional Republicans can’t keep straight what the official line is anymore. It’s as erratic and changeable as Trump’s mood swings. Only thing they can do is duck for cover and let Trump speak for himself.
All Repubs at the White House have a note from their doctors stating they have bone spurs and must dodge CNN.
I read this a “Trump’s mood rings”, and thought that the WH staff could really use a Trump mood ring decoder.
They probably only have to look at how red the orange is to be able to judge his mood…
Gonna be a “burnt umber” day on Monday.
A mood ring and decoder could be useful. But the one color (orange) delivers different messages throughout the day, reverses itself after 48 hours, and comes in a size too small to fit on the average human hand.
It will always lie to you.
Letting Trump speak for himself is likely to be the worst alternative. He can’t go for more than ten minutes before contradicting himself.
It would only glow white, the combination of all possible colors.
Can’t mansplain the indefensible and the un-hingedness of the Extortionist-In-Chief, who Self-Impeaches, Self-Incriminates and Self-Confesses his immoral, unethical, unlawful and criminal actions!
Kudos to Tapper for calling out the misappropriation of American tax dollars!
“The invitation remains open.”
I would like to see this become a growing trend to the point where reportage gets tough enough that leadership not only feels compelled to show up and explain itself but is prepared to document a clarification of record.
“Access journalism” is a plague that has led to source greasing and outright stenography rather than news that might genuinely inform readers.
Ok but Democrats too guys, right?
Don’t let Tapper get away with failing to acknowledge how Obama was slightly evasive sometimes. And Solyndra.
The Oval Trailer would need to move galactic orders of magnitude upward to even hope to achieve the lowest levels of “shirking”.
well, ok. so you are saying it is not 100% impossible.
A guy can dream / nightmare, right?
LOL
As a kid, my siblings and I used a vein on my father’s forehead as our barometer of how much shit we were actually in.
It’s sad that as a country, we have to do that with Dotard…
