Gergen didn't mince words last night on CNN, as Trump's victory lap last night in Cincinnati met with scorn and derision from the CNN contributor.


Last night in Cincinnati, Ohio, Donald Trump took what can best be described as a victory lap. While his speech began with talk of “unity” and compassion, it quickly devolved into attacks on the media, immigrants, and anyone who didn’t vote for him.

When the speech was over with, a panel on CNN discussed what they had just seen, David Gergen, who served as an advisor to Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, said he had been disheartened by what Trump’s remarks, commenting:

“I think if there was any doubt that we’re putting an end to one chapter in American history and moving to a new one, he dispelled that tonight. This is goodbye to American leadership in the world. Goodbye to globalization. He’s bringing America home. He’s going to lead a nativist, nationalistic, populist movement and if you want to join up with him fine. If you don’t, forget it.”

Gergen added that it’s now clear the President-elect will push his agenda, “and he’s going to do it in his pugilistic, narcissistic way.” He then added:

1. This Gergen statement has be widely taken out of context on the Internet. Let us correct the

record. Gergen DID NOT say in the first person that he never liked the son of a bitch in the first place. He said that anti-Trump voters will react to Trump's nonsense by saying that they never liked the son of a bitch to begin with. Quite a significant difference IMO.

2. Thank you

I happened on this in real time while playing channel roulette, and for the 45 seconds I could tolerate, the tone was decidedly MSM suck up to money/power yappidy yap propaganda. I don't think Gergen said anything that would ban him as an unfriendly journalist to be denied Fuhrer access at every turn.
