CNN’s Tapper: Republican Party Pushes ‘Made-Up Convoluted Crap’
Breitbart ^ | 05/02/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/03/2021 6:10:46 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During the Sunday broadcast of “State of the Union,” CNN anchor Jake Tapper accused Republicans of pushing “made-up convoluted crap.”

Tapper said, “Facts and truth often get beaten up on their way to you. There is context, spin and narrative and people make mistakes. But I want to talk about the notion of downright falsehoods, lies, inventions because there were several moments this week in which complete and utter nonsense was injected into mainstream politics. One was a story that twisted the conclusions of an academic paper from 2020 about reducing greenhouse gases to essentially invent the idea that President Biden’s climate plan will limit Americans to one hamburger a month. It was nonsense. Biden has nothing to do with any proposal like that. The story was reported by the usual MAGA media. But it is was so false by last Monday even some of them acknowledged the lie and issued corrections. Nonetheless, on Wednesday, House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was still out there pushing the lie about Biden as Hamburglar.”

Hard to believe INGSOC-CNN can say such things with a straight face, but there you go.

I’ll be honest and say that both of those stories sounded odd to me. My first thought on the border book story was that there would probably be fifty different ways to sue Kamala if this was true. The hamburger story looked like a deliberate exaggeration.

Rona Romney-person is related to noted globalist Mittens, and if there is one thing that globalist scum want to do it is to delegitimize populists. Spreading these sorts of stories is a way to do that and in so doing shrink the MAGA base of support by making all things MAGA be cringy. Thats what is going on here I think.

Okay, Jake. What does he want to reduce the level of CO2 in the atmosphere to?

The republican party isn’t pushing anything. It’s we the people getting the truth out about the corruption and theft by both parties.

Man made climate change is a fraud. Yet CNN and the dems repeatedly lie about climate change.

Ironic that he would say arguing about Global Warming is made-up crap. The truth is Global Warming was made up by Algore with no proof whatsoever.

If I had the stomach to endure the TSA, I’d love to find myself seated next to Tapper on a long flight. I bet I could get him to self-reflect a bit...or throw himself off before it landed.

I guess that scumbag POS Tapper never looks in the mirror to see all the lies he and his cohorts push constantly on his commie network.

Perhaps it is "nonsense"...if so what is the truth of the matter in regard to Biden's proposal and the consumption of meat and the study and all. What was the reason beyond the "one hamburger" conclusion, and how was that reasoning wrong?

What good is just hearing "that is a lie" without us being told what the truth is? Is the truth about the subject important at all? Just saying "they are liars" without demonstrating it is useless, especially since CNN as a news source has a track record of demonstrated falsehoods.
