The anchor -Dana Bash, of a CNN Sunday show asking Democrats if it's irresponsible to criticize the president. !!!!

Rep Raskin calming talks like a statesman, while Bash yaps and looks foolish!!


BASH: You and your fellow Democrats have used some heated rhetoric against the president. Do you think twice about that when something like that happens?

RASKIN: What rhetoric do you have in mind?

BASH: That he's terrible for this country and so on and so forth

Hey, Dana, how about when Trump recently accused Democrats of seditious behavior “punishable by death” — heated rhetoric? But, you’re cool with J6’ers who actually committed sedition, were convicted for their behavior, then pardoned only to become Trump ICE goons. The hypocrisy is endless.

rethug or the president about THEIR constant hateful threats almost 24/7, because THAT is what is happening, and is responsible for the division and hate in this country.

CNN has become such a worthless network.

We need less of her gutless ilk and more honest journalism that is not afraid to challenge the lies.
Unfortunately, that’s a hard ask for these well paid corporate stenographers.

Otherwise, that is a leading question worthy of a professional television propagandist.

No one uses "heated rhetoric" more than our Rapist-in-Chief! Not only does no one use it more than him, no one else uses rhetoric that is as heated as the rhetoric he uses.

The corporate whore media sure fell in line quickly!

And Democratic politicians have been injured and killed because of it. If only you were as concerned about that.
