'Let's not get self-righteous': CNN commentator confronts Scott Jennings after Biden rant
Raw StoryDuring the closing panel segment on CNN's "State of the Union," commentator Jamal Simmons admonished conservative Scott Jennings after his rant calling President Joe Biden a "disgrace." With host Jake Tapper bringing up the pardon of Hunter Biden, Jennings, who has assumed the role of defender of Donald Trump on the cable network, grew agitated and lashed out about the pardon while others at the table took a more understanding view regarding the president protecting his son from incoming Trump officials who have vowed revenge. He added, "The media, the people who cover this White House, ought to be absolutely livid at the gaslighting and then the continued gaslighting and the hostility towards the idea of transparency," before insisting "He's going out of office as one of the least liked and most divisive presidents we've ever had." "I think what they have discovered in the White House is that everyone else is playing by these very pristine rules, while Trump is doing whatever he wants to do, whatever the heck he wants."
