'Disturbing' Speech by 'Moral Midget'; CNN Suffers Epic Meltdown Post-Trump Rally
newsbusters.org ^ | 4/30/2017 | Curtis Houck

Most readers of NewsBusters and consumers of cable news are used to liberal media meltdowns since November 8. However, that’s not to say they’re any less enjoyable. Saturday night featured another temper tantrum by CNN with anchors and guests labeling Trump’s 100 Days rally in Pennsylvania a “deeply disturbing” and “stunning” speech by a “moral midget.”

Moments before the Trump-free White House Correspondents’ Dinner (WHCD) began, the most asinine of all the comments on CNN were those of senior political commentator David Gergen. The same guy who either willingly or purposely forgot that William Henry Harrison and Abraham Lincoln had far worse first 100 days than Trump uncorked another set of loony comments.

“[Y]ou know, to bring your campaign speech into the presidency is something Presidents rarely do. This was — this was the most divisive speech I've ever heard from a sitting American president. Others may disagree about that,” Gergen complained.

Clearly forgetting a Kansas speech by Barack Obama or the actions of the Wilson administration during World War I, Gergen continued his ride aboard the crazy train with Brian Stelter, ruling Trump’s remarks were “disturbing”:

He played to his base and he treated his other listeners — the rest of the people who have been disturbed about him or oppose him, he treated them basically as I don't care — I don’t give a damn what you think because you're frankly like the enemy. You’re like the enemy with the press. I thought it was a deeply disturbing speech in that regard.

Coming a close second was former Clinton administration official and CNN political commentator Paul Begala, who derided Trump as “a moral midget” seeking “affirmation from his base because...he is a deeply insecure person.”

LOLOLOLOLOL! Man, winning does NOT suck. At all. The fact that these graduates from Dumbassistan University are still melting says to me that Trump is doing the right things despite them and CONgress throwing up roadblocks at every intersection. Truck on Mr. President.

LMAO. All the kenyan did was lie his ass off and campaign for 8 years. “If you like your plan”, Iran deal, etc. And of course the media very rarely called him out about it. Tantruming leftists like Gergen are beyond pathetic.

Because nothing says “Moral Midget” like oral sex in the Oval Office with a White House intern, and that was their candidate....

I guess “the forehead” Begala didn’t get the memo that “midget” is not PC and the correct terminology now is “person of short stature.”

Nothing like showing half of America what you think of them by reminding them “ We Won”

Gergen’s mistress is very expensive. This lowlife will do and say whatever is necessary to keep the CNN checks coming. The layoffs at ESPN scared him badly.

Now, now. They can say midget. Conservatives, not so much. Conservatives would have to say “moral little person....”. Hmmm. Doesn’t have the same impact as tossing the other one around does it. Not that I’m suggesting a midget toss or anything.

LOL. So, true. For the left to start complaining about ANYONE’S “morals” is beyond laughable.

Imagine a toady for corrupt and immoral Bill Clinton criticizing anyone? Some of us are old enough to know these pigs corrupted a whole generation.

ISAIAH 54:17
But in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the Lord; their vindication will come from Me. I, the Lord, have spoken!

GOD placed DONALD TRUMP into power for a purpose. NO political pundit will succeed in thwarting GOD’S Providence.

Enough of the hyperbole...’meltdown’? If some commentator blew his brains out on live television, THAT would be a meltdown. This is just a ‘hissy fit’.
