I suggest Tapper become a news reporter in North Korea.

BLM/Antifa burn down cities but those are “mostly peaceful protests.”

Double-standard much?

Tapper played a much larger role than either of those two.

Jake Tapper is deflecting from his own treason.

The Trump trial is DOA, I hope Trump doesn’t even send a defense team.

Cruz and Hawley should embrace this.
Trump isn’t going to be convicted (2/3 of the Senate required) and they can work to make (even bigger) fools of Leahy, the Senate Democrats, and Republican traitors.

All those who incite illegal immigration should be responsible for the murders, rapes, thefts, diseases and drugs they bring into the country.

They are all on record in their own words promoting and approving violence against President Trump and his supporters.

We will never forget.

Have they condemned any of it?

Nope.

Have they called in the NG for riots ongoing even now in Portland and Seattle?

His defense team should spend the entire time on the fraud.

To save time, why don’t they just line up the entire Trump family, all Republicans in the Senate except for Mittens and Murky, everyone at Fox News, and Rush and Hannity and just march ‘em into an oven? It could even burn green stuff, just eliminate all the raciss and sexiss at once! Cancel ‘em! Then the rest of us would all start thinking properly.

Yes, /s.

circlecity :" Tapper played a much larger role than either of those two."

True that !
Wasn't it CNN that interviewed live,the AntiFa leader, right after the "riot" (that wasn't) ?
The "impeachment" is nothing more than a legislative "mob rule ", led by a power hungry, post-menopausal female who has grandiose visions of grandeur, along with derangement syndrome.
Anywhere else, the 'alleged victims', taking action on their own is called vigilanteeism, and is considered unlawful since it lacks impartial justice.
It's about par for the course for politics this year, especially when it comes to rejecting an inquiry into last years election.

That's the Dim's concept of 'unity' : to put them all in one place !
Enjoyed that post !
