Trump's hatred of CNN is justified. Here's proof positive.

CNN slammed as ‘disgraceful’ after Jake Tapper silent when guest says Trump radicalized more people than ISIS
CNN has no shame
quote:
CNN and star anchor Jake Tapper are under fire for remaining silent when a guest on his program declared that President Trump had radicalized more people than ISIS. Hours later, CNN’s Don Lemon drew the ire of Majority Whip Steve Scalise by declaring that Democrats don’t kill people, completing a 24-hour span being labeled CNN’s “new low” by critics.
CNN has preached a call for civility since its New York headquarters was evacuated when a pipe bomb was found in the mailroom last week but critics feel the network only cares about hate speech when it comes from the right. This theory came to a head when controversial GQ Magazine columnist Julia Ioffe was on Tapper's show, “The Lead,” on Monday during a heated debate about hateful rhetoric.
“I think this president, one of the things that he really launched his presidential run on is talking about Islamic radicalization and this president has radicalized so many more people than ISIS ever did,” Ioffe said.
Tapper did not chime in, but David Urban, the panel’s token conservative, didn’t appreciate the remark.
Ioffe was continuing her rant about Trump's “radicalized” supporters when Urban interrupted.
“Jake, for you not to push back on that is irresponsible. That’s irresponsible. For her to say the President of the United States has radicalized more people than ISIS is irresponsible,” Urban said.
Tapper said, “OK, you disagree with it,” as other panelists talked over each other and Ioffe stood by her claim.
A CNN spokeswoman said Tuesday evening: “CNN has diverse panels of guests with a variety of views and obviously no anchor, including Jake Tapper, agrees with everything each one says. Julia Ioffe’s comments were regrettable and we’re glad she apologized.”
NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck told Fox News that the lack of pushback was “disgraceful.”
The widely-condemned comment was not the first time that Ioffe has come under fire for outlandish rhetoric aimed at Trump. She was fired from Politico in 2016 for an obscene tweet in which she implied that Trump was having an incestuous relationship with his elder daughter, Ivanka.
“CNN invited on one of the most poisonous voices on the left. Someone who routinely trades in baseless conspiracy theories and ad hominem attacks,” conservative strategist Chris Barron told Fox News. “The results were predictable. Jake Tapper sat by while she spewed truly repulsive rhetoric completely unmoored from reality. CNN rewarded her for this abhorrent behavior with an invitation to appear on yet another show on their network. A new low for CNN.”

Trump doesn't hate CNN any more than he hates NAFTA. He just knows that his base hates them.

Ioffe is vile. Imagine if she criticized ISIS once in the same manner that CNN criticizes Trump every day.

What’s really sad is the left has reached a point where they would invite an ISIS member into their home over a white man wearing a MAGA hat.

They are ridiculous at this point. Like seriously should change their channel to The Onion Network.

I will pray to God on Tuesday morning that His will be done, not CNN's.

Look how many radicalized, crazed libtards have crawled out from under rocks since Trump won the presidency.
