Jake Tapper Goes Off On Trump After Presser: ‘Get to Work and Stop Whining’
Mediaite ^ | 2-16-2017 | Justin Baragona

Following a truly remarkable press conference by President Donald Trump, CNN’s Jake Tapper weighed in on what we had all witnessed. And he didn’t pull any punches.

“Everybody at home needs to ask themselves how would you react if that were your boss coming in and giving a speech to the employees,” Tapper noted. “How would you react if that was somebody in your family that you were trying to have a conversation with? You would think this is very difficult to assess in a positive way.”

He continued, “The person is not dealing with the world in which we live. He said things that weren’t true.”

Little Jakey expects to get a participation trophy and a pat on the back even when he does a horrible job.

Sorry, Jake, heard the presser. Didn’t hear any whining from our POTUS.

Regarding the content I heard today: I kept thinking things like, “thank God” and “it’s about time”.

Obviously Chuckie has missed the astounding number of accomplishments Trump has achieved in one month on the job. His “stop whining and get to work” line while looking straight at the camera in full meltdown may mark the moment the media jumped the shark!

i searched but did not find cnn covering trump signing the lifting of coal mining ban.

what is the problem with cnn?

i still like the idea of using bumper “CNN LIES” stickers to plaster over tv sets at airports. using disposable masks of course.

“Everybody at home needs to ask themselves how would you react if that were your boss coming in and giving a speech to the employees,” Tapper noted.

Tapper considers a president the “boss” and the white house press corps his employees? Bit of a slip there...damn near snowflake territory.

‘Get to Work and Stop Whining’

What trump should say is, “As long as you guys won’t show up at your committees to take a vote for my cabinet, I am running this whole thing by myself. As long as the senate is not doing their job, I have to do several jobs. That’s okay, I come from the business sector we are used to working hard.”

Side note: notice how the press and the democrats are trying to say Trump isn’t getting stuff done even when he is working faster than any other President and especially the last two Presidents.

You're so right, Jake-

No one understands you - no one really appreciates how smart you are! Gosh darn it anyway - people like you!

Any time Jake the Fake wants to step outside, I'll slather some mayo and mustard on my good right, and feed him a sandwich.

Jake and Anderson get their jobs because they can look into the camera very seriously and tell you a bunch of crap. The sanctimonious bastards get paid a lot for those scowls, but its all acting.

Been there, done that. I would tell Jake but he could never relate having never really worked in the private sector of manufacturing............

“this is very difficult to assess in a positive way”

They drown themselves in the diluted language of progressivism.
