CNN This Morning

On CNN This Morning, David Frum compares Donald Trump to mass murderer Charles Manson: "Asking Donald Trump to talk about policy, it's like teaching Charles Manson to foxtrot. He can manage a step or two, but then he's going to put a pencil in your eye, because he's Charles Manson. And Donald Trump is Donald Trump."

Monday’s CNN This Morning briefly came off the rails when pompous pundit David Frum of The Atlantic (perhaps the most pompous outlet in the liberal media) said that 2024 GOP vice president candidate JD Vance’s criticisms of Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz over his policies and military record are coded language accusing him of being “a sexual deviant of some…

On CNN This Morning, CNN commentator Karen Finney, who served as a spokesperson for Hillary Clinton in her 2016 campaign, claims that Tim Walz was speaking about "training" when he claimed that he carried weapons "in war." Walz never served in a combat zone.

CNN's Kasie Hunt claims that Donald Trump calling Kamala Harris a "low-IQ individual" is "definitely race-related. Hunt ignores a long list of people of pallor whose intelligence Trump has questioned, notably including Mika Brzezinski, who he described with the same term: "low-IQ."

It was a tale of two networks on CNN and MSNBC in their 6 am hours today. CNN This Morning devoted a long opening segment to the strike that reportedly killed Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran. Meanwhile, over on Morning Joe, Joe and Mika might be on vacation, but under the baton of Jonathan Lemire, that same crucial opening segment was all about "cat ladies," "weird,"…

CNN This Morning devoted a segment to the their outrage over Donald Trump's pronunciation of Kamala Harris's first name. Host Kasie Hunt and CNN analyst and former Dem aide Karen Finney insisted that Trump's mispronunciation was "intentional." Jonah Goldberg wasn't so sure, but all agreed that it was an attempt to "other" her.

When CNN This Morning host Kasie Hunt brings in a Republican and a Democrat to discuss the campaign, that would be two spins. But at the end of today's chat with Republican Scott Jennings and Democrat Brad Woodhouse, Hunt warned viewers "Scott is giving you spin, that is what they are going to say." The Democrat apparently offered the gospel truth.

On CNN, host Kasie Hunt acknowledges, in a discussion of the assassination attempt on President Trump, a "massive failure by the Secret Service." Later, in a discussion of disinformation in social media, when a panelist mentions people floating the notion of an "inside job," Hunt shuts him down, saying, "we don't want to get into that."

On Tuesday's CNN This Morning, Jonah Goldberg grew visibly angry with Kate Bedingfield, the former Biden White House communications director, saying keeping him on the ballot is "a wildly irresponsible bet" and "I think it's lunatic you think he can actually serve for four and a half more years."

CNN This Morning airs a montage of clips of Biden's debate performance over the years.  It began with a clip of the 2012 VP debate, in which a sharp and smiling Biden put down Paul Ryan. Next was the 2020 presidential debate, in which a marginally competent but clearly diminished Biden managed to make a point. And finally, that disastrously iconic clip from last week's debate, ending in Biden'…

As if Thursday night’s disastrous first presidential debate wasn’t enough evidence of President Joe Biden’s unsuitability for a second term, CNN continued to downplay the effect his reelection would have on the world stage. During the first hour of Tuesday’s This Morning, host Kasie Hunt and CNN International anchor Max Foster dismissed Biden’s debate performance by holding up the…

On Morning Joe, Eugene Robinson, Washington Post columnist and also an MSNBC analyst, last year claimed that Biden is "sharp as a tack." Now he says that after Biden's disastrous debate, "Democrats are right to send up the alarm."

Appearing on CNN This Morning Thursday, liberal CNN contributor Bakari Sellers complained that it was "disgustingly brilliant" for Republicans to bus illegal immigrants to blue cities to draw attention to border security.

Friday’s CNN This Morning attempted to make sense of President Biden’s porous performance in the network’s presidential debate on Thursday night with varying doses of cope, excuses, and even conceding reality. Even one White House reporter on-set blasted the administration’s years of denying reality about Biden losing a grip on reality.
