CNN Touts Disaffected Republicans Pushing for Democrats to Win

[NEWSBUSTERS.ORG] A day after promoting a party-switching former Republican who is running for Oklahoma as a Democrat, on Tuesday, CNN
...the organization formerly known as the Cable News Network. Now who knows what it might stand for...
's New Day devoted a segment to a pair of disaffected Republicans who are encouraging members of their party to vote Democratic and keep Democrats in control of Congress.Picking up on a piece in the New York Times

... which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
by former New Jersey Governor Christine "Snaggletoofs" Todd Whitman and former Homeland Security Department official Miles Taylor, CNN host Brianna Keilar spoke with them live about their lobbying against their own party. She set up the segment:

Two longtime GOP critics of former President Trump offering some surprising advice for fellow Republicans who refuse to embrace Trump's chokehold on the party and his lies about the election. In a New York Times opinion essay, they write, "Rational Republicans are losing the party's civil war, and the only near-term way to battle pro-Trump forces of Evil is for all of us to team up on key races and overarching political goals with our longtime political opponents, the Democrats."

After Keilar began by asking Whitman how she made the decision to take such action, the liberal former governor repeated tired claims that the Republican Party has no clearly identified agenda, in spite of all the issues that were acted on the past four years:

Because I believe in the Constitution, and it's time that our elected officials remember they took an oath to that, not to a party. And what I have seen is that unfortunately Donald Trump
...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons......
has created what I would call a -- it's just a cult. There isn't a party anymore. If you don't have a core set of values, if you don't have a platform -- which they didn't adopt at the last convention because he didn't want them to -- the only thing you stand for is whatever he tells you on a particular day and that is not my definition of a political party.

#1 CNN's New Day devoted a segment to a pair of disaffected Republicans who are encouraging members of their party to vote Democratic and keep Democrats in control of Congress.

That's a mighty big sample size, CNN!

#5 CNN has zero credibility. One employee was recently caught spanking the monkey on a Zoom call. Recently, a bitchy and nasty anchor was accused of sexual assault by a bartender. They have a bunch of clowns at CNN masquerading as legitimate news people.
