Jake Tapper Calls Out Lara Trump for Publicly Mocking Joe Biden's Stutter

Source: Daily Beast

CNN anchor Jake Tapper ended a combative Sunday interview with Trump campaign senior adviser Lara Trump by pressing the presidential daughter-in-law for openly mocking Joe Biden’s well-known stutter, prompting a tense exchange over the Democratic nominee’s mental fitness for office.

At the top of CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday morning, Tapper noted that he had attempted to book members of the White House coronavirus task force, senior White House officials, or the heads of the CDC and FDA to discuss the administration’s middling efforts to combat the pandemic.

But the White House declined all requests, so a resigned Tapper then welcomed on Trump.

The veteran anchor immediately kicked off his interview by bringing up the president’s Saturday Michigan rally, which featured attendees chanting “Lock her up!” at Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. This despite Whitmer having been the target of an alleged violent kidnapping plot by far-right extremists.

us. I'm all for sending these POS to the slammer but unfortunately, just because they have a gutter mouth, whine and moan with the best of them, it's not a offense to charge/find guilty/throw the book at them. But we can make fun of them, which I think is by far better, for the mocking and laughing at them will last forever and their taint will last forever too.

And yea - she was mocking Biden's stutter. It sickens me to think about the things she said. And she lied about "the family" wearing masks at the last debate & she lied about trump's covid test before the last debate. She kept saying "I assume he had a test and tested negative" - Trapper kept saying "but, you don't know".

What an evil family.

because they have captured a dangerously powerful position. They are psychopaths, and people marrying into the family need to be too.

Everyone knows she will lie, and she’s too ignorant to say anything significant. That isn’t presenting opposing ideas—it’s giving broadcast time to a nincompoop.

These guests are encouraged to rant ad nauseam without any fact checking. Then the interviewer attempts some vague "got you" moment. I'm getting really sick and tired of this script.
