CNN anchor Jake Tapper refused to air a Donald Trump speech, saying the former president's remarks are "potentially dangerous" just one month after CNN aired a town hall with Trump that garnered massive viewership.
Tapper stated Tuesday that CNN would not air the speech in its entirety because the former president "says a lot of things that are not true and sometimes potentially dangerous," Mediaite reported. The speech began with Trump criticizing charges against him for mishandling classified documents, leading Tapper to call Trump's remarks "untrue and unfounded" and accuse him of trying to "undo an election."
After being arraigned at a Miami courthouse, Trump went to a nearby Cuban restaurant to mingle with locals, an event that CNN filmed. The former president's supporters sang him "happy birthday," a scene that one CNN commentator called a "spectacle." After some criticism of Trump, Tapper refused to pan back to the restaurant, telling CNN's control room that "I don't need to see any more of that. He's trying to turn it into a spectacle, into a campaign ad. That's enough of that. We've seen it already."
Trump shot back at Tapper on Truth Social. "Fake Tapper just demanded that his broadcast be closed down from Miami because there was far too much enthusiasm on the streets for 'Trump,'" the former president wrote. "The good news is, he was the only one to do so, perhaps a good explanation as to why CNN’s ratings are so low!"

ANYTHING a Republican says according to the commies is automatically “not true” only their side is totally truthful, gee reminds me of Pakistan
Fake Crapper on CNN and GloboHomo Faux News. A total wasteland. No wonder Americans are largely clueless about what’s happening.
Many trees and lamp posts are clamoring to be graced with his seditious presence.
Sorry, too busy watching Tucker on Twitter who as of tonight is spinning Fox News clips. Gads, Fox must be pissed.
As far as Tapper he is a puzzy. I’d hate to have to do the garbage he does to make a buck.
Potentially dangerous to what? Tapper’s career?
what did he cover?
biden’s indian ocean railroad?
toot toot
Interesting. I wonder if Tapper & CNN are acting alone or are they simply the first to reveal the next step. The complete dissapearance of President Donald Trump’s campaign from any and all news. Then of course, repeat and amplify each and every charge and bad news they can find or manufacture.
Says the most corrupt fake news circus on the planet
I hear they're between jobs.
No, the chocolate chip ice cream the train would deliver to lyin’ Biden. 🤣
The truth is not potentially dangerous...
It is dangerous to democrats. Danger to democrats is anything that could reveal the dangers of the progressive agenda. If people got to know the truth via CNN, CNN would cease to exist.
“clueless about what’s happening.”
I for one am glad that I can rest easy knowing that someone is watching out for my mental health.
I was in my safe place the other day and still heard someone say “Trump” ... as you can imagine I had to humm and sing just to get settled down.
I can only imagine the harm it would cause my self esteem if
I were subjected to a stream of truth and reality.
I’ll be glad when I own nothing ... then I can be happy.
...and eat bugs ...
The Christians were called dangerous extremists by the Romans, who used that as an excuse to feed them to hungry lions and burn and crucify them. Is that where we’re going?
Yes! That is how all dick tators describe their opponents.
No big deal, people refuse to watch Jake Tapper.
The only reason that the remarks would be dangerous is that they provided information that Tapper and others in the media fail or actually refuse to cover, information that contradicts their Leftist anti Trump propaganda.
What they don’t get is most politician are made in Public Relations firm and they always are aware of how they are perceived. What Trump has is genuine popularity and not an Illusory product of a PR firm.
They frequently run a disclaimer crawler bottom of screen while Trump speaks live. Says something like warning: this has not been fact checked.
Interfering in an election ought not be reduced to spouting lies about one’s political nemesis. Interference adheres to actually manipulating the voting machinery, which act ought merit lampost and tree usage.
