Trump Aides Struggle to Defend ‘Sexual’ Kamala Harris Post
(www.thedailybeast.com)
Oh, a hundred times worse.
!!!!
What an absolute despicable liar.
Arguably the worst thing Harris has called Trump is "felon", and that is true.
But next Jason Miller will probably claim that because it's true it's worse, and Trump is crying himself to sleep every night over it, because he is such a spoiled cry baby.
Why didn't the anchor ask him to name an example
What?! Do actual journalism?
Because CNN was bought out to destroy its journalism. Same thing that happened to Twitter - they’re buying up all sources of information so that they can control the narrative.

Isn't that the point in the interview, after Jason Miller says that the Harris campaign did something 100x worse, when you tell Miller that since he knows something that much worse, he should give an actual example?

She also called him weird which, based on their responses, I can only conclude is the modern equivalent of being stripped naked in the public square and forced to dance upon hot coals while being prodded with iron spikes by the King's guard.
there’s a difference between acknowledging a fact and calling someone a name
“Well, I saw the social media post,” Miller replied. “I have not discussed that with the president. I don’t know if the president even saw the comment that was on there or simply the picture.”
Why would a Trump advisor discuss it with Biden? Does Jason Miller have dementia?
Tap for spoiler
Yes I know about the convention of addressing former presidents as "president." Trump does not fucking deserve that courtesy, not even the slightest bit!
Wouldn’t the next question be “if he’s unable to process or notice that a single simple caption under the image exists, how could he be trusted to process information pertinent to running a nation?”
He is straight up illiterate. I watched a video where an actor working with him on some show said he couldn’t read his lines - he insisted on making up his own lines.

It's a title, used like "President Obama." I don't think normal people say "the president" about former ones. This is weird conduct.
Emily Post's Etiquette (the standard for people who dine regularly with multiple forks) says addressing former Presidents this way is incorrect.

It carves out a slight exception for informal settings, but still advises against.
I agree. I think "Mr. Obama" is appropriate 2017 and onward. But like is noted there, "President Obama," is still at least a common mistake, I could see how that extends into formal settings as well.
I don't think "the president" is common. Nor a mistake, coming from that source.

Don't forget that CNN has shifted with the Overton Window to the right.
CNN is just about what Faux News was when it first launched. They pander to both sides but just a little more to the right.
some details for anyone unaware that this has been gradually happening since they got bought a few years ago. Class war is a bitch when they own all the media.
There is an author that wrote a book about 20 years ago that was his mea culpa for helping CNN to create the shout show format. I'm not sure they've ever really been even half as "liberal" as the unhinged right wing claims.

Amazing. His defense is that trump maybe just shared a sexed up, generated image of Harris without reading the caption. What a creep.
Trump also blamed others for the Arlington scandal.
“I want to run the whole country, but I don’t take responsibility for any of my own actions”.
Fucking hell! I was so confused why this guy needed to talk to Biden. It's ex-president or if you're being detailed felon, rapist, racist, pedophile, twice impeached, ex-president.
Defeated former president.
Every other presidential candidate election during my lifetime has conceded. He was resoundingly defeated.
I hate watching mainstream US news media. No push back to blatant lies. Instead they sit and smile. Instead of fair and balance we should strive for facts. I don't give a shit that left or right has the same amount to talk, I care what they are saying is factual.
I hate it as well. These large media outlets have suffered complete journalistic bankruptcy.

I don’t know if the president even saw the comment that was on there
In a lot of ways, Trump is a lazy and unserious person. But I do not believe for a second that he was not aware of what was being posted on his social media. That is his greatest obsession.

Newsflash: Trump advisor Jason Miller says Trump doesn’t know what he is doing.
Woah, that’s a big one. He’s just flushing his campaign down the toilet. I love it.
It seems like every other day, Trump does something that would have been absolutely career-ending for anyone else. I think he's kept his campaign from going down the toilet by just making sure it was completely clogged.
Trump operates by slowly moving the bar. He incrementally pushes the boundaries of acceptability, to the point that now nothing is surprising anymore. As a result, he can do these things that should be career ending, because his supporters laugh it off and his detractors, disgusted as they may be, still expect this behavior from Trump.
Yeah, but Trump famously needs to flush eight or ten times to actually get anything to go down the toilet.

I don't know that it's fair to say the attacks on Trump haven't been sexual in nature, I mean, he is an adjududicated rapist.

There's a difference between discussing someone's sexual crimes and sexualizing that person.
These BS artists just spew lie after lie as a jumping off point to the question, and don't even try to answer the question.
I don't know if the president even saw the comment that was on there or simply the picture.
Hmmm... Maybe his advanced age might have something to do with his not being fully aware or in control of his actions?
