Tonight’s Three On One Debate

Conservatives got a preview of how tonight’s debate between former President Donald

Trump and alleged President Joe Biden will work when Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt appeared on CNN and truthfully attacked CNN debate moderators Jake Tapper and Dana Bash.


Ms. Leavitt had just started to get to the meat of criticism on Tapper and Bash when CNN Anchor Kasie Hunt cut Leavitt’s mike and video and took her off air.


Look for something similar to happen tonight.



“President Trump is knowingly going into a hostile environment on this very network, on CNN, with debate moderators who have made their opinions about him very well known over the past eight years and their biased coverage of him,” Leavitt said during the interview.

 

This is demonstrably true as Ms. Leavitt pointed out by saying, “it takes about five minutes to Google Jake Tapper, Donald Trump to see that Jake Tapper has… compared Trump to Adolf Hitler.” That’s when Hunt ended the interview mid-segment.


As Ben Whedon documented in an article for Just the News, Leavitt’s remarks about Tapper’s comparison were accurate. Tapper, in an on-air segment, previously stated that “the dehumanizing rhetoric of Adolf Hitler is once again alive and well on a national political stage. This time, of course, in the United States. This time, given life by former president and current Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump.”


During an appearance on Sky News Australia, former White House Communications Director Sean Spicer reinforced Ms. Leavitt’s point with a little biographical background: “They don’t even want you to see Jake Tapper’s past,” he said. “Jake Tapper was a Democratic House staffer who worked for Chelsea Clinton’s mother-in-law when she was a member of Congress from Pennsylvania… he also worked for a very left-wing organization called Handgun Control.”

 

“I don’t know what they’re afraid of… but the reality is that’s what I think we can get used to expecting,” he went on. “On the debate stage, when Jake Tapper doesn’t like what Trump is saying, he’s just gonna mute his mic. On Thursday, it’s gonna be Trump versus the moderators and Joe Biden.”


Dana Bash is equally biased against Trump and has gone out of her way to editorialize that Trump is a Nazi in her coverage of Trump's remarks in March when he observed that "Any Jewish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion.” Calling the comment a "longstanding antisemitic trope that the true allegiance for Jews is to their religion rather than their country. It was used in Nazi Germany to justify the arrest, persecutions, and mass killings, and attempted extermination of the Jewish people. And Trump has been pushing this trope for years."


However, the gratuitous Nazi references are really just the tip of the iceberg in Bash and Tapper’s coverage of Donald Trump.


As Ben Wheden documented, throughout Trump’s administration, Tapper's program was a consistent platform for major proponents of the now-debunked Trump-Russia collusion narrative, featuring legislators such as California Democratic Reps. Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff.

 

Tapper himself continued to frame the narrative against Trump even after the publication of the Mueller Report, which found no evidence of collusion. Tapper instead highlighted that the special counsel had not explicitly exonerated Trump.


And let’s not forget that CNN host Dana Bash argued that even if the Supreme Court were technically correct in their ruling about Trump remaining on ballots, she said it was a dark outcome for America itself.


The opinion released by the court argued the "patchwork" that would result from different states banning this or that candidate from their ballots would "'sever the direct link that the Framers found so critical between the National Government and the people of the United States' as a whole," the opinion says. Justice Brett Kavanaugh also specifically noted the courts looked back to an 1869 decision which found that an act of Congress was necessary to enforce the 14th Amendment's ban on insurrectionists holding federal office.

 

"Unfortunately for America, the court isn‘t necessarily wrong that this is the way the Framers wanted it to be," Bash lamented on a CNN panel.

 

Joe Biden has often accused reporters who ask him unscripted or surprise questions of “not following the rules.”


However, Biden will be on friendly turf, so expect that the editorializing and the Nazi comparisons will continue for President Trump, and don't be surprised if CNN fails to ask about how ISIS terrorists took advantage of Joe Biden's open border, about how Biden keeps lying that prices are going down, or how the DOJ confirmed that Hunter's laptop, which has emails showing the Bidens' corruption, is real.

Not sure why President Trump agreed to this format, or if I will even watch it. Biden and the Deep State have rigged this debate totally against Trump.

Let's just pray that we don't end up with a second Biden presidency (which could be a Harris presidency). American voters are not the most reliable . . .
