CNN’s Jake Tapper took heat Tuesday for retweeting a post from conservative lawyer George Conway — a frequent critic of President Trump and the husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway — that called the commander-in-chief “100% insane.”
The CNN anchor on Monday retweeted Conway’s post, which said Trump “is 100% insane and nobody in the administration has the balls to tell him that,” The Hill reported.
Tapper retweeted it again Tuesday while adding: “Noteworthy comment on folks in the administration from a Trump critic who knows a lot of them.”

Critics said Tapper was supporting Conway’s harsh characterization of Trump, who has frequently ripped Conway himself.
Tapper insisted Conway’s barb “seems newsworthy given how many people in the administration he knows.”
“I RTed Conway, a conservative attorney and Trump critic, because he wrote that no one in the administration has the courage to stand up to the president which seems newsworthy given how many people in the administration he knows,” Tapper tweeted, attempting to explain his motives. “RTs do not nec. = agreement.”
The critics included Johnathan Turley, the only Republican witness during the House impeachment hearings.
Turley, a George Washington University law professor and a contributor to The Hill, ripped Tapper, saying his retweet “only further undermines the media by reaffirming for many that the media is campaigning against Trump rather than covering him.”
CNN’s Jake Tapper is a fraud. Early in his career, as a mouthpiece for a leftwing congresswoman and propagandist for Handgun Control, Inc., he was an openly partisan... https://t.co/gkkGaHvOZ2— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) July 27, 2018
No ones paying attention to him, we should suggest he set himself on fire
“conservative lawyer George Conway”
In what sense is he a conservative? Does he stick to last year’s fashions?
If anyone is insane, George Conway seems to fit the bill to join the ranks of Jim Carrey, Cher, Meathead, etc.
It amazes me how the Left is doing everything they can to overthrow the WH during this crisis.
Amazing. Four years later and CNN is still sore about losing the 2016 election.
Jake Crapper is a Chuck Turd.
Not surprised.
Crapper was press secretary for Chelsea’s MIL.
And, his wife’s favorite restaurant is Comet Ping Pong Pizza.

You RT because you agree with it. Stop pretending Jake. Everyone knows.— Running Man (@tramblin_man) April 7, 2020
Levin calls him Fake Tapper.
“conservative lawyer George Conway”
GTFOH
Fake Tapper has always been a demented lib.
During election night coverage 2016, he kept slipping up and saying we need this and we need that.
I just laughed at his corrections. Umm, I mean, the democrats need this.
Inasmuch as Turley is a lifelong Democrat, Tapper's is obviously an opportunistic and misleading smear-comment. Only with the hyper-technical twist that the Republicans were pleased to let Turley speak does Tapper's comment have any truth at all.
The insane one is Kellyanne’s husband.
His TDS is beyond hope.
r retweeting a post from conservative lawyer George Conway...
Yeah, no that’s not what he is. Maybe a lawyer. Not the first part at all
“Fake Tapper”
Classic.
What to two insane people talk about?
They talk about how others are insane, and not themselves.
In this case, it’s about Trump Derangement Syndrome.
