CNN’s Tapper Compares Trump to Gangsters After Press Conference on Midterms
Washington Free Beacon ^ | November 7, 2018 | Paul Crookston

Posted on 11/07/2018 5:07:01 PM PST by kevcol

Tapper said Trump "started out by doing a dance on the graves of Republicans who did not show him enough fealty."

"He danced on their graves. He said because they didn't embrace him they lost, and he was flip about it," Tapper said. "I've never seen a president take delight in people of his own party losing. And the only thing I can compare that to is some of the works of Francis Ford Coppola or Martin Scorsese."
.
.
Trump's press conference also included multiple spats with reporters, including Tapper's CNN colleague Jim Acosta. Trump angrily called him a "rude, terrible person" after Acosta sought to ask an extra question about Russia and sparred with the president over his rhetoric about the migrant caravan in Mexico.

Tapper, Acosta — pay no attention to them. Their goal is socialism and anything to destroy Trump.

Sounds like Acosta is “out” having lost his press pass. Long overdue. He, and any other like him deserve to be booted out the door, never to return.

Jake, put on a skirt and some pearls and go find a fainting couch. You definitely have a case of the vapors.

You’ve become a hysterical effete drama queen. Stop spending so much time with Spartacus Jazz Hands. (“Fosse! Fosse! Fosse!”)

That’s right mother @#$$#er.

We’re NYers, me and Trump.

You’re either with us or @#$$ you.

What, because you’re an R that means you’ve been loyal to Trump?

That’s laughable.

We’re not southern and we’re not gentlemen.

@#$#$ you Jake if you can’t live with it.

BTW, I have GREAT respect for the south. You win us our presidencies and you are true patriots.

We just do things differently up here.

Because so many people are out to @#$@#$ you, you have to HIT BACK HARD so they don’t forget.

That’s what Trump does.

Good.

Would love to have heard Trump say; "Jake, this is the last time you will be in this room.
Sergeant at Arms!"

So if a RINO pees on your shoes, why wouldn’t you ‘dance on their graves’ after they commit politcal suicide?

didn't Obama use that “when they bring a knife you bring a gun” line about mob violence (from the Untouchables) about confronting political opponents in the street?

Tapper doesn't go to those things.

I think he stays in the studio.

I don’t blame some Congressmen who have to distance themselves from Trump to survive. Trump should understand, he’s not everybody’s cup of tea.

I wouldn’t be shocked at all.

If he did, for the first time in my life, I agree with something he said.

But i’m SURE not with the context he was referring to.

He meant “if they have Nothing, bring a knife or a gun.”

Dems don’t want ANY kind of fight put up against them.

POS

One major reason Tapper and his other CNN buddies say these outrageous things is because they are suffering terribly in the ratings and so they say this stuff to get people riled up to tune in to see what else they will say. They hate Trump alright but I believe they are desperate for folks to watch them while still bashing Trump 24/7
