CNN asks drag queen to react to Donald Trump's 'scary' rhetoric
Twitchy.com ^ | 6/25/2024 | Brett T

As Twitchy reported Monday, CNN's Kasie Hunt cut off her interview with Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt after Leavitt brought up debate moderator Jake Tapper's previous comparisons of Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler. Hunt went on X to defend it, saying, "You come on my show, you respect my colleagues. Period." But Clay Travis brought receipts: a video of Tapper and co-moderator Dana Bash likening Trump's rhetoric to that of Hitler.

Former CNN analyst Chris Cillizza famously tweeted that reporters don't root for a side. That doesn't seem to be the case with CNN, which hosted drag queen Brigitte Bandit to talk about lobbying Congress for LGBTQ protections (what don't they have?) and to react to a speech in which Trump said he was going to cut off federal funding to any school pushing "transgender insanity."

We see where CNN draws the line on guests.

So CNN shuts down an interview with a Trump campaign person, but interview this thing.

This is what Joe Biden thinks is normal.

The goal of public schools is to get to kids before they become ingrained as "cisnormative"; that is, thinking that men are men and women are women and that's normal.

Apparently, Tuesday is "Drag Lobby Day" on Capitol Hill, and Bandit is just one of three drag queens meeting with Congress.

They'll be welcomed, for sure, by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who appeared on "RuPaul's Drag Race" to tell them they're "patriots" and she's "so proud to live in this country" with them.

All conservatives ask is that these patriots limit their performances to adults. Just stay away from kids. We don't want this:

If you showed this clip to any of us even 10 years ago we would all think it was a parody or a joke

No way would this be a real segment on CNN. But remember slippery slopes don't exist right

The clown news network had an ACTUAL CLOWN to interview.

Amazing!

So, he dresses that way on any given day, going about his affairs, and he doesn't feel safe?😆

— Grady Philpott (@PhilpottGrady) June 25, 2024

We need Congress to pass laws to protect him from the rest of us.

These are the people in charge of the debate for the future of our country.

This is straight up mental illness.

Trump is right. America doesn’t want this crap around our children.

Isn't discrimination already illegal?

— We The Memes (@MericanMemes) June 25, 2024

That's what we thought. Nothing has stopped venues from hosting drag brunches on Sunday afternoons for the whole family.

What protections exactly?

— Fresh Peach (@FreshPeachLife) June 25, 2024

Protection from people thinking you're a clown? Sorry, can't help you.

What attacks? The invisible boogeyman.

— Reality Check (@XvirtueSignaler) June 25, 2024

What protections do they not currently enjoy?

— Brandon Hughes (@BrandonHughes74) June 25, 2024

You can already be charged with a felony for leaving scooter tire marks on a pride mural on the street. What more legislation do they need? What is this "Equality Act" that they're lobbying for?

CNN is a cesspool of freaks...both CNN personnel and those who they interview. What a decadent pathetic clown show.

Obama thought children were a burden. This trans agenda is Obama’s legacy to America.

It would have been more fitting to ask this creature to talk about rectal syphilis.

We’re supposed to be concerned about what clowns think?

"Drag queen @BrigitteBandit tells CNN: 'It’s very scary for queer people to exist in a time where we see this kind of rhetoric being pushed by our lawmakers'"

It's scary for normal people to hear about these cross-dressing freaks murdering adults and children at record numbers.
