CNNs die-hard, Donald Trump-loving commentator Scott Jennings was mocked on Thursday for his wild, F-bomb overreaction to being challenged over his defense of the presidents war on Iran.
Jennings told Adam Mockler, a commentator for the progressive MeidasTouch Network, to get your ******* hand out of my face despite Mocklers hand being nowhere near during a heated exchange on NewsNight.
Jennings appeared to be initially triggered by Mocklers comment about his defense of prior endless wars when he served in the administration of former President George W. Bush.
-snip-
Eight weeks is endless to you? Jennings fired back at Mockler. Mockler pointed out that the Iran conflict has now dragged on for much longer than what Trump and his MAGA allies first insisted it would. Jennings suggested Mockler had the attention span of a gnat.

He comes armed with facts and he deploys them effectively.
I love watching MAGA mouthpieces demolished by facts. All they have to respond with is more lies, insults, and anger.

(25,389 posts)where Rs never make a valid point and then start freaking out when they're called on it is mind numbingly boring to me. Been there, done that, for decades. In this particular example, Jennings got dirty first by accusing the progressive guy of being hyper because he was up past his bedtime. He was the first to get personal. Then of course he just accelerated his tantrum because the other guy was burying him logically. I would like to point out that Abby Phillip's show has the lowest ratings of any news show during that timeslot and is beaten handily by Lawrence's show every night. He actually pointed that out one night, naming the show and comparing the ratings because he was so disgusted by Scott Jennings who he said is paid by CNN to lie on TV. So if anyone thinks that this show is staged this way to increase ratings, it ain't working.

(3,171 posts)the billionaire class is thinking long term. Scott Jennings isn't just a right leaning analyst he is a paid republican surrogate. They want to turn off the sensible members of their audience from watching and one day replace them with a maga or maga like audience and for the sensible people who can still stomach to watch that trash they want to propagandize. That's why billionaire are buying up media left and right they can afford taking monetary loss so they control the narrative and get what they want in the future.
