“I Hate Brussels Sprouts” - Jacob Blake’s Father Stuns CNN Host With Incoherent Responses

As Jacob Blake Jr. remains handcuffed in a hospital bed, paralyzed from the waist down after he was shot seven times by Kenosha police last week, his father, Jacob Blake Sr., joined CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Friday for an interview.

Cooper asked Blake Sr. a series of questions during the interview about the incident, which involved his son and police officers. Some of Blake Sr.’s responses stunned the liberal-leaning news host.

Cooper asked Blake Sr. about the new narrative the Kenosha police union published late last week, alleging Blake Jr. fought an officer and had a knife before he was shot in the back seven times.

Blake Sr. responded to the question: “Some say Brussels sprouts taste good.” Cooper paused for a few seconds and said, “Umm, I don’t get the reference,” prompting Blake Sr. to say, “I hate Brussels sprouts.”

Cooper asked Blake Sr. another question: “Are you concerned with the police union giving details when authorities aren’t themselves? “

In another incoherent response, he said the union is “like a bunch of dudes that pay dues so they can go someplace and meet and get away from their wives.”

Cooper then throws Blake Sr. a straightforward question: “When you saw your son in the hospital... he asked you why he was shot. Does he remember anything?”

Blake Sr. responds, “no, he didn’t ask me why he was shot - he said dad, why did they shoot me so many times?” Blake Sr. continued, “son, they weren’t supposed to shoot you at all.”

Michael Moore Warns Democrats Enthusiasm for Trump 2020 ‘Off the Charts’

Far-left activist and documentary filmmaker Michael Moore has warned Democrats that despite Joe Biden retaining a lead in national polls, enthusiasm for the President Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign is “off the charts” in many parts of the country.

Posting on Facebook, the Oscar-winner pointed to polling indicating that President Trump may have a chance in battleground states such as Minnesota, which he lost in 2016, as well as Moore’s home state of Michigan, which Trump won by narrow margins.
Are you ready for a Trump victory? Are you mentally prepared to be outsmarted by Trump again? Do you find comfort in your certainty that there is no way Trump can win? Are you content with the trust you’ve placed in the DNC to pull this off? The Biden campaign just announced he’ll be visiting a number of states— but not Michigan. Sound familiar? I’m warning you almost 10 weeks in advance. The enthusiasm level for the 60 million in Trump’s base is OFF THE CHARTS! For Joe, not so much. Don’t leave it to the Democrats to get rid of Trump. YOU have to get rid of Trump. WE have to wake up every day for the next 67 days and make sure each of us are going to get a hundred people out to vote. ACT NOW!

Despite being loud socialist and vehement opponent of Trump, Michael Moore predicted that Trump would defeat Hillary Clinton in 2016.
