On his CNN show this morning, Jake Tapper prematurely ended his contentious interview of senior Trump advisor Stephen Miller, in the course of which Miller repeatedly criticized CNN's biased coverage of President Trump.

Abruptly ending the interview, Tapper:

“There’s one viewer that you care about right now, and you’re being obsequious, you’re being a factotum in order to please him, okay? And I think I’ve wasted enough of my viewers’ time. Thank you, Stephen.”

Why would any administration official give another interview to this pizza muncher? Since it is a waste of CNN viewers time anyway

Bravo, Mr. Miller! Superb performance!

Truth with insistence, but under control.

Beautiful.

Being obsequious to a corrupt Obama or Hillary is A-OK - acknowledging the truth about Trump and the corrupt media is a mortal sin.....

For God’s sake Republicans - get a video of Hillary barking like a dog (”Arf, arf”) and show it to these jerks. Then ask them to answer which candidate shows signs of mental instability?

Tapper knew he was severely outclassed the minute Miller sat in his chair.

Obama rarely had press conferences. When he did,, he got questions like this one:”What is the most inspiring thing you’ve done lately, Mr. President?”

It looks like Tapper can ‘dish it out’, but he can’t ‘take it’. He’s a typical thin skinned leftist.

“There’s one viewer that you care about right now, and you’re being obsequious, you’re being a factotum in order to please him, okay?

I seriously doubt President Trump wastes his time viewing brain-dead morons like Tapper, but if he did Miller would still have more viewers than CNN...

I am watching it now, Miller is a flippin' pit bull and Fake Tapper is the shin bone he just bit in.

We need this weekly on all the "BS" networks.
