'Hope They're Not Looting The Place': CNN Smears Trump Aide with Lincoln Bust
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/15/2021 9:21:07 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Talk about kicking people on their way, literally, out the door . . .

CNN's nasty little parting gift for members of President Trump's White House staff was to suggest they might be thieves. On this morning's New Day, as footage rolled of an aide carrying a Lincoln bust out the door, co-host Alisyn Camerota fretted, "I hope they're not absconding with the bust. I hope that was theirs."

And when the video showed the wife of Chief of Staff Mark Meadows carrying a stuffed pheasant to a vehicle, Camerota sniffed, "I don't know where she got [it]."

CNN political analyst Errol Louis put a nasty coda to the discussion, snidely fretting, "certainly one does hope that they're not looting the place."

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Projection. Anyone remember the nonsense the Clinton people did as they left the white house. Pathetic.

CNN smears Trump WH aides, literally suggesting they're looters.

Anyone remember CNN being this concerned about looting during the 2020 riots, when property was actually being stolen?

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

I thought the left now hates Lincoln and considers him to be an incorrigible racist white male. Wouldn’t removal of his bust be a good thing??

The Lincoln bust and other artifacts will be in good hands until this election is settled.

More proof a “just make stuff up” culture. They don’t even see anything wrong with it.

Worse, it means that they are going to send in BLM/Antifa protesters to trash it after the Trumps leave.

We know ABSOLUTELY that the Clintons stole stuff....because they had to return some things and were allowed to pay for other things.

Hasn’t Lincoln been “canceled” by the left? They were probably protecting the bust.

You mean like when Hillary stole the silverware and their staff removed all of the W’s from the computer keyboards?

You can’t have lived in this country the past 12 months without knowing it’s democrat/commie thugs who burn and loot. They did it for months... almost two billion dollars in damage the past year.

Less than 1% of our peaceful demonstrators became violent for less than three hours...with less than a thousand dollars worth of damage. And Washington goes for the fainting couch?

Reality requires us to notice truth.
