Alisyn Camerota Offers DNC Sales Pitch: Vote Democrat to 'Do Better' on Gun Control
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/21/2019 8:23:28 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Was it a gun-control spiel from a Democrat presidential candidate? A TV ad from the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence? Nope. It was Alisyn Camerota, an ostensibly objective CNN news host, telling viewers on Wednesday morning's New Day that if you want more gun control, you're just gonna have to vote Democrat in 2020.

Camerota was reacting to some reports that President Trump doesn't intend to push for further background checks (in fact, the White House is saying that expanded checks are still on the table. But Camerota insisted that "this is as good as it gets" with Republicans on gun control, that they do nothing. (Bump stock bans, anyone?) Then, after portentously noting that Americans are preparing "to send our kids back to school," she declared:

[snip]

So as we all prepare to send our kids back to school next week, I think it is just good for Americans to know that they’ve given up. Okay? So now we just have to accept that, do we like it like this, or do we think that, you know, in — if voters think that in 15 months there’s a way to do better, then they know what their choices are. Cause it’s very clear this morning.

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

Good old Alisyn Camerota, late of Fox News, now blatantly begging people to vote Democrat in 2020.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

‘Do Better’

There’s that weird vague slogan from the left again. By now Americans should be very suspicious of anything that uses that phrase as part of its pitch.

Have never seen the current magnitude of lust for power displayed by the left and MSM. Absurd to support gun control in any environment, but ESPECIALLY in the environment we have now. . . THAT would be a death wish . . . no thank you.

LOL. “CNN” and the word “news” shouldn’t even be in the same sentence (paragraph, probably) much less adjacent to one another.

Isn’t that sort of an empty pool?

Aren’t most anti-gun/gun control fanatics already Democrats?

That is where/how the Dems keep messing up: They try to appeal to the populace they already have and insult the remainder of the populace with remarks like “basket of deplorables” and accusations that all of the ‘Trump supporters are racists/white supremacists’.

Name one “gun control” law that would have stopped ANY of the last 20 “mass murders”?
