Jake Tapper ended CNN’s State of the Union show Sunday by thanking President Donald Trump for some of his achievements during his term in office. He cited Trump’s approval of Operation Warp Speed for bringing us Covid vaccines, rethinking trade policies, peace in the Middle East, and his emphasis on bringing troops home.
He then switched to subjects that he said the president perhaps inadvertently should be thanked for like the relationship between the media and the government–which he said shouldn’t be antagonistic as has been the case over the last four years, but adversarial and that maybe Trump was right by not attending events where the press cozied up to the president.
But he reserved his real “thanks” for the “insane lawsuit” Trump pushed and led by Texas to overturn the election results in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan which the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear in a ruling on Friday.
“18 state attorneys general, some U.S. Senators, and a majority of the House Republican caucus — 126 members — supported it. President Trump did us a favor by exposing these elected officials. They are definitionally people who signed on to a desperate desire to subvert the will of the American people, to disenfranchise voters in Georgian, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan based on lies and conspiracy theories, putting an immoral and corrupt power grab above democracy. President Trump did us a favor by revealing to us that those individuals are who they are.”
Tapper then praised the Republican officials who were attacked by Trump and other Republicans for not giving in to political pressure.
“Many Americans hoped that most Republican officials, while they agreed with Trump’s policies, did not like the uglier parts of his style, his willingness to lie or smear to achieve his ends,” he said. “But President Trump made House Republicans go on the record. He made them stand and be counted and 126 of them, including Republican leader Kevin McCarthy and Republican whip Steve Scalise, they actually signed their names to this. This unconservative, undemocratic, un-American mendacious joke of a lawsuit that would disenfranchise millions of their fellow Americans.”
“The hope that most Republicans in the House were better than this — that’s been destroyed.”

A sign of guilt is to try to turn an argument against the accuser. However the people know the truth and will not be deterred by the lies and propaganda of the Fake Media.
Accusing others of WHAT THEY are actually doing, is WHAT DEMS ALWAYS do..
“They are definitionally people who signed on to a desperate desire to subvert the will of the American people, to disenfranchise voters in Georgian, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan based on lies and conspiracy theories” Oh how many ways does this left wing hypocrite have it screwed up?
“subvert the will of the American people” YES the will of the majority who really did vote for Trump and were robbed. “to disenfranchise voters” what about the 80 MILLION PLUS who are disenfranchised all across the country because the cheating in the 4 mentioned states?
“a desperate desire to subvert” “based on lies and conspiracy theories” My bet this idiot has not watched 1 min of testimony from the hearings in any of these states, he has no clue. Search your own information, these left wing loons are following a script from their masters, ignore the feeling to fall for the gaslighting.
More like 6 states. AZ, NV, PA, GA, Mi, and Wi.. OH and don’t forget to add in Minnesota!! So that’s 7 states.
