Tapper Grills RNC Chair McDaniel On Racist, Inaccurate Ad Trump Tweeted On Immigration

CNN’s Jake Tapper on Sunday grilled RNC Chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel on the racist, inaccurate ad President Donald Trump tweeted on Oct. 31.

The ad, which paints all undocumented immigrants as potential violent criminals, inaccurately pins responsibility on Democrats for immigration policies that allowed an undocumented man who eventually killed two police officers to be unlawfully present in the country.

  1. Jake let Ronna non Romney McDaniel blather on and deflect with very little challenge. She never answered the question. OTOH, he interrupted Tom Perez multiple times.

  2. OK COME ON THAT’S RIDICULOUS. Did we watch the same clip? He repeatedly—eight times, in fact—demanded that she agree with or contradict the main premise of the ad, which is that the Democrats wanted to let immigrants in illegally. You can just describe an imaginary encounter because that’s your inflexible preconception but I’m going to challenge it myself because I’m really getting tired of this when the actual clip is right there to look at, jeeze.

  3. Talking to her is like talking to a wall or parrot…

  4. What is the % of immigrants who commit violent crimes compared to the % of Trump followers who commit violent crimes?

    Man I wish someone could explain this to me - I do not understand it at all:

    No it is not normal.

    And slightly OT.
