CNN’s Chris Cillizza called President Donald Trump and his followers “bonkers” and “crazy” last year for believing the FBI and the Clinton campaign were involved in the now-infamous Steele dossier.
Cillizza chastised Trump and his cadre of followers in October of last year for suggesting and supporting the idea that Democrats and elements inside the FBI were involved in funding the dossier. He called them conspiracy theorists at the time.
“He is suggesting that a dossier prepared by a former member of British intelligence has not only been totally discredited … but that it might have been funded by some combination of Russia, the Democratic Party and, wait for it, the FBI!” Cillizza wrote in a missive at the time.
Trump has mercilessly lambasted CNN in the past for what he calls promulgating fake news – the 24-hour news network won the president’s fake news award in early January. Cillizza has been a frequent critic of the Trump administration, and implored Republicans in his October article to dismiss the president’s alleged conspiracy theories.
“You can love Donald Trump and still believe that the idea that the Russians, the Democrats and the FBI co-funded a dossier designed to discredit Trump’s 2016 campaign is totally bonkers,” said Cillizza, a former writer with The Washington Post who fashions himself a type of advocacy journalist.
He added: “But, there is no plausible scenario by which what Trump suggested this morning — a wide-scale conspiracy involving three separate actors across federal agencies and continents — actually happened.”

Does this guy’s last name remind anyone else of a fur coat?
He’s a pathetic reporter.....I never learn anything from them.
They also panned Trump when he claimed his phones were tapped. Where are their apologies for that?
In the world WE live in, and the world that even most Democrat voters live in, Trump would be owed an APOLOGY.
So the question now is, will this clown APOLOGIZE to Trump?
If he does apologize, he’s human, if he doesn’t, then he’s no better than the ISIS terrorists that throw gays off of rooftops. He would do the same to us, and certainly support others doing the same, if he could just figure out a way.
So we’ll see now. At last check, not a SINGLE leftist has apologized to Trump or even admitted they were wrong to discredit him - at least per what I’ve seen.
...and so it leads to an OBVIOUS conclusion, which is trying to work with that bunch is simply NOT POSSIBLE - no different than Israel being ordered to cut a deal with Yassir Arafat - when Arafat would say in English how much he wanted to finalize a ‘peace agreement (giving him control of all the strategic positions)’, and then say in Arabic (to his people) something to the effect ‘...because that will make it easy for us to exterminate the Jew’. No different.
So let’s watch for the APOLOGIES, which are definitely owed to Trump, considering the treatment he’s endured, when he’s been right the whole time. But don’t expect much, of course, and that SAYS EVERYTHING about who these people are.
One thing sticks in my mind since Trump became POTUS, unless I have missed it somewhere, he seems to tell the truth. I have no way of knowing if he purposely lies or doesn’t but thus far, I give him the benefit of the doubt. Personally, I am GLAD that he is our president.
The demodummies and media can say all they want, I don’t believe ANYTHING they say.
The MO for CNN on a story like this, would be to “mediasplain” to its viewers what a “conspiracy” is. They’ll create some high bar of a definition, and then explain that what Trump said doesn’t actually meet their contrived definition, so he’s “still wrong.”
Dems Go After Devin Nunes
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon / FR Posted by EyesOfTX
EXCERPT.... the Democrat/fake media complex is challenging the claim in the memo that Andrew McCabe told the committee that “no surveillance warrant would have been sought” were it not for the possession by the FBI of the fake dossier.
This claim comes mainly from the notorious liar/leaker Adam Schiff, who has been caught in more lies about this memo and the process around it than a 9 year-old pick-pocket, so it is automatically suspect.
But this dispute is very easily resolved: Just release the transcript of McCabe’s testimony to the public. This is not hard. All of these criticisms of the memo can be resolved by releasing all of the underlying documentation upon which it is based. You can bet the Democrats will fight tooth and nail to keep that transcript secret, no doubt with the FBI’s help. When you see that happening, you know who is lying.
Just another day in panicking weasels and liars America.
It is funny that when Trump makes a declaration, it is always true but contains just enough spark for the Libs to set their hair on fire.
President Trump, “ vindicatio e pluribus unum”
The MSM is avoiding reporting on the matter , its ludicrous to watch them sit on the loo, as the fumes of the story are exploding up around them, they appearing like drooling, dysentery infected apes on a shit hole, looking around and exclaiming, “WHAT?” at the insidious stench.
CNN consider yourself mocked, ridiculed and held in low regard.
Trump has known all along what is going on. His tweets are harbingers of what is to come. Trump isn’t prescient, he is just in possession of the facts. His targets know he knows, which is driving them crazy.

Will this Cillizza thing issue a long apology?
“Will this Cillizza thing issue a long apology?”
Not a chance. This story has been widely published (except for Left Wing News) for a couple days now, and the POS is actively obsessed with President Trump on twitter.
Cilizza's a Partisan Media Shill, and there's nothing new about that. Thanks simpson96.
