Speaker Emerita Pelosi takes Jake Tapper to the woodshed... repeatedly.

[Dennis Donovan]

The Post Millennial
Jake Tapper asks Pelosi about Trump saying Kamala has bigger cognitive problems than Biden:

"Why would you even cover that? This is a person who's not on the level. He is their nominee for president. He is incompetent."

1. Wow... Jake has become a Katy Tur(d) clone.

[SocialDemocrat61]

5. He already was, for years

She became a Tapper clone.

[Cosmocat]

42. Right

He has ALWAYS been a CLEAR right leaning "both sider."

[Prairie Gates]

37. The whole set-up is that he's quiver-lipped about being called a hack on his socials

So then he doubles down on his hackery.

He's a garbage bag.

[Cha]

2. Somebody Needs to & Who

Better than Nancy!!💙🇺🇸🌊🕯️🕊️

[malaise]

3. A licky licky hack

Who never fails to suck up to the CONvicted felon

[Walleye]

4. It really really pisses me off when, especially news people, are so eager to give him a pass on the pandemic.

As in “yeah he lost lots of jobs, but the pandemic”.
he was president. He was supposed to deal with that competently, what would happen if there’s another pandemic during his possible term. This is where presidents are supposed to rise to the occasion. He knew that too, but he couldn’t. He even called himself a wartime president, and said deciding when to open up the country was the biggest decision he would ever make. The stock market started to drop and he panicked because he knew he would lose the election Then he went downplayed the whole thing and got everybody sick.

9. Trump eliminated the early detection team without

Researching why it existed. He owns the response and it’s failures.

[Walleye]

11. He made all kinds of stupid moves before the thing even happened.

Do we expect he could rise the occasion if it happened again? What is wrong with these people?

[Wednesdays]

19. "What is wrong with these people?"

Just turn on Fox News for five minutes, and you'll see. These people are steeped in that propaganda 24/7/365.

[Walleye]

20. I think it's just insane that they revived the accusation of communist. Since they are the ones in love with Russia.

[travelingthrulife]

38. Not only stupid but malicious.

The bidding games Kushner and Trump played with critical medical supplies and equipment were disgraceful.

[Walleye]

39. Really pissed me off and they didn't try to hide it. They just did it right up in our faces.

[dchill]

24. It seems like he WANTED a pandemic.

I thought so at the time and still do.

[33taw]

32. Maybe, but 2020 was a stupid time to have it happen..

I felt like when he had Mike Pence run the response it was a fairly normal response. Pence gathered the experts and tried to let them do their jobs. The problem was that Pence started getting attention and Trump couldn't handle it. He walked into a daily press conference and the it all went downhill from there.

[BittyJenkins]

6. Love the WOMAN!

[Hekate]

7. Stomp on his feet with your high heels, Nancy. He's just begging for it by being so stupid.

[tishaLA]

8. That was cathartic.

It's ridiculous to me that they'll cover whatever foolishness that moron says and ask for a response--like his words have any value and merit a response.

[Walleye]

12. Anytime they start the sentence with "Trump says" they are repeating lies and they know it

[Walleye]

44. Exactly, and there's no excuse for it. Trump lies would be the best way to start it.

[Wild blueberry]

10. Brava!

Thank you!

[NoMoreRepugs]

13. Why the Fuck would u ask me to respond to something that idiotic said by

a person who is blatantly abnormal - that’s what I heard Madame Speaker reply. Tapper in some language must mean mealy mouthed douchebag.

[maxsolomon]

14. Cover the controversy!

Every day, more bullshit. A firehose of bullshit, and Dems are expected to waste their time refuting all of it.

[ffr]

15. K&R and LOL

[3Hotdogs]

16. "Why would you even cover that?"

She could have stopped right there.

[Cha]

17. KICK!!

[DemonGoddess]

18. Hah!

Go Nancy!!!!

[mountain grammy]

21. Thank you Nancy!

[robleb]

22. Tapper has the cognitive problems

What a poor excuse for journalism or even as a news-reader for CNN.
Can't stand watching his program or listening to him.

[SalviaBlue]

23. Why even go on his show or any other if

half of your time is going to be spent watching a video of the rapist bloviating that you are then asked to respond to. Too bad she can’t make a stipulation that she won’t come on if they play video of the motherfucker.

She did do well under the circumstances… as ridiculous as they were.

[senseandsensibility]

25. I noticed that all of the sudden when interviewing Speaker Pelosi

he found the ability to ask follow up questions. He is never able to find that ability when interviewing his numerous R guests, such as Tom Cotton, on his Sunday show. Funny how that works.

[Westcoast4life]

26. Tur is still nursing her cheek from Pelosi's backhand and now Tapper got one of his own.

[JohnSJ]

27. Because he is an asshole who is trying to legitimize an unhinged serial liar.

[oasis]

28. Nancy P. set ass straight. She's still got it.

[angrychair]

29. Honestly

Nothing frustrates me more that we engage in serious conversations about TSF's policies and proposals when he is wholly unqualified and any discussion on those things is ridiculous.
He is a convicted felon. A rapist. He wants to put black and brown people in concentration camps and do mass deportations.
We should be refusing to engage in this ridiculous conversations and constantly reiterate these facts and never normalize or sane-wash him as a normal candidate.

[MLAA]

30. She is right on and fearless.

[delisen]

31. No serious journalist would ask such a question.

Especially of a former Speaker of the House. No real journalist would waste valuable interview time with a Speaker of Pelosi’s stature and experience by posing a cheap gossip question as Tapper did here.

Tapper is playing a different role. I am not sure what it is. But I noticed his facial expression and quick comeback in defense of Trump when Pelosi pointed out facts about Trump’s poor performance on the economy. To me it indicated he may have an emotionally-based pro-Trump bias.

I haven’t followed Tapper for some time because I want to spend my time learning as much as I can.

[helpisontheway]

33. Right..he was quick to defend Trump. Has he ever done that for Kamala? Unlikely..Nt

[SocialDemocrat61]

35. Tapper is not a real journalist

And hasn’t been one for years.

[helpisontheway]

34. Noticed that he said the other countries can't believe that Kamala is going to be president

Is he admitting that he will likely lose?

[Prairie Gates]

36. Jake Tapper is a piece of shit. The defender of troops has still not commented on Arlington

Really, why show Trump just straight out lying about Harris having any "cognitive problems." The lead in was so utterly stupid (all these internet people are saying we don't cover Trump's cognitive problems, but what about Kamala's? - are you kidding me?).

What an asshole.

[flying_wahini]

40. Jake needs to retire to Fox. Or just flat out quit. That's not journalism.

The other Dems need to point out this sorry excuse for journalism EVERY TIME.

[live love laugh]

41. "INCOMPETENT" Period

[uponit7771]

43. EXACTLY!!! ***DOES TAPPER NOT GET IT ?!?!*
