Paid CNN commentator Rick Santorum seen yucking it up in audience with GOP senators at Trump speech

Published 2 hours ago on February 6, 2020

CNN commentator Rick Santorum doesn’t always agree with President Donald Trump when he’s on television, but he was caught in the celebration audience for the president’s post-impeachment event. It wasn’t in the press area.

For many employees of news stations or newspapers, even donating to a candidate is unacceptable, but Santorum pretends to stand in moral opposition to the president while celebrating him just a few rows back in the White House.

Just hours prior to taking his seat at the White House, Santorum was on CNN blasting Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) for voting “guilty” on the first article of impeachment. He claimed that the vote made “vulnerable Republicans more vulnerable,” because Romney was willing to vote his conscience, but Republicans in difficult seats refused to do so.

Hey CNN, now that you have "commentator" that was sitting in on the fascist preview of how to be a traitor and spewing bloviating BS, spewing from this asshole impeached, that basically got away with treason.

I for one am trying on to to get rid of CNN and other broadcasters that put this shit show on the air..........................I think I have right CNN to decide which stations I want to see and pay for instead of being forced to pay for programming that has people from your show cheering this traitor on, and I really don't think my service bill for either cable or satellite should be paid to people like Santorum and others to enable this shit ....................................because your paid commentator is enabling this shit and I am paying the bill every month...............................

Bring back the Fairness Doctrine...............................
