WTF Happened To Jake Tapper? Did A MSM Journalist Actually Grow A SPINE???

He's actually challenging Jim 'Jacketless Jackass' Jordan's bullshit in real time. Let's hope this is a turning point for real journalists, and they'll put an end to false equivalencies, whataboutism, and both-siderism.

I'm pretty sure Tapper was only able to do this because the Republicans sent their talking points to the Democrats by mistake. They gave them to the journalists, and the journalists had time to prepare for the talking points.

If other journalists start doing this, the Hunter Biden whataboutism will vanish in a week! Let's hope so!

They can't fucking listen! I couldn't finish this. It's so disturbing that they just flat out don't want to hear the facts and just interrupt repeatedly to spew their bullshit.

Look at the bald spots on his head. He's obviously another ugly, pathetically insecure, weak republican male who has to find his power by being rude and obnoxious. He has no real argument. He just attacks on bullshit false republican talking points and thinks that he is going to he is going to convince Jake that he is right.

I am so sick of these sad, weak republican men. If they only knew how pathetic they looked to the rest of us.

They just constantly interrupt and scream out their well rehearsed CT talking points to gish gallop over any attempt at a conversation.
