Man, what happened to Tapper?

I used to think he was pretty on the level, but this plus his and Bash’s weak ass debate moderating have really soured me on the dude.

I guess being “bullied” off of Bluesky because people wanted him to do his job better really screwed him up.

IMHO, he's always been "Left of Center (for an American)" or maybe neo-Liberal. I would never consider him a Progressive. Now, as we're seeing more progressive lawmakers and some progressive policies being spotlit, the Overton Window is expanding, and he's staying right where he's always been.

I’m more surprised people still watch CNN.

CNN has the youngest audience among cable news networks. Median age of 67.

God its sad that I can't tell if this is a legit fact or a joke

Is it early onset dementia?

This whole story is disgusting and damn near McCarthy-esque in replacing "Communist" with "anti-semite". The Michigan AG, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash should be collectively shamed and ashamed of themselves for continuing to propagate this smear campaign. Rashida should sue CNN for slander
