Apparently, CNN’s Brian Stelter doesn’t realize that the nation has moved on from President Trump’s “racist” tweets against “The Squad” and is now watching a Democrat of Cuban descent being accused of racism by a black state representative from Georgia.
Stelter’s still stuck on Trump, and that’s no surprise; as Twitchy has reported, CNN has gone all-in on calling Trump a racist and announcing that his 2020 re-election strategy is “no more dog whistles, just naked racism.” That assessment had come from Jake Tapper, who only two days earlier had avowed white nationalist Richard Spencer on his show, apparently as the network’s expert on racism.
As we said, CNN is going all-in, and Stelter has decided it’s time for the network to blow the lid of Trump’s decades of racism.
"There is no racial tension," Trump said just now. But he's been stoking racial tension for decades. The press needs to show this pattern — the BIG picture — here are some of the examples I listed on @ReliableSources pic.twitter.com/Yp7yzEITON

Thank goodness we’ve had CNN around to tamp down all of that racial tension that’s been building up for decades.
You and your network are such clowns. pic.twitter.com/7V3Vyp8QVS

Didn’t your boss run his show? Why would he prop up a known racist?

Decades, huh? Your boss has some explaining to do.https://t.co/RbmpVSvoNA
— BT (@back_ttys) July 22, 2019
Then why did your boss give him.a show if it's been decades?
— Dave Coleman (@dave_onion) July 22, 2019
Yeah, maybe see if Jeff Zucker can come on “Reliable Sources” and explain why he’d greenlight “The Apprentice” knowing the star’s decades of racism.
This is just sad, Weebles.

Decades? Guess you bought that NY Times story hook, line, and sinker.

CNN’s been on the air since 1980 but suddenly has become interested in Trump’s racism as the 2020 election cycle gets underway.
The projection is strong with this one. Wowza.

Big picture?
You’re CNN, sit the hell down.

Brian, you and your network stroke more racial tension than anybody else. You know this tho. PS how are you ratings doing?
— Kody (@K_MARTmvtx) July 22, 2019
You are a hack. #MSM has been the ones to stoke racism. To you everything is racism unless we agree with you and other Dems about EVERYTHING. IT’S A FARCE

The press stokes racial tension and is the enemy of the people. CNN is full of partisan hacks and has lied and deceived the people for too long.

The media are stirring up the tensions. Great way to have endless outrage ratings. Thanks, journalism.

Goodness. CNN and MSNBC, along with many Democrats, have been calling Trump and his supporters racists for over two years. Isn’t this stoking racism?
— Annie Higgins (@Midwood49) July 22, 2019
We can now dear diary Stelter.

Totally accurate. We remember when he said "that could have been my son" when he inserted himself into a racially charged local legal battle.

Like the beer summit, Ferguson, Trayvon? Like that stoking?

Just read a study that shows racism has decreased under Trump. Sent it to you yesterday.
— Torcular Herophili (@beauxtx1) July 22, 2019
Cool. Did you see the recent study that found racism is less prevalent than when Obama was president?
— Tristan (@penokee1773) July 22, 2019
Decades? Would that include 1998 when Jesse Jackson presented Trump with a award and praised Donald Trump as "a life long champion of minorities"?
— Lisa B. (@politeracy) July 22, 2019
OMG!!! Who remembers last year when @realDonaldTrump made the despicable decision to commute Alice Marie Johnson’s prison sentence. #RacistPresident
— daniel janicki (@daniel_janicki) July 22, 2019
Trump really stoked it with the Ellis Island Medal of Honor.
— Mark O. Van Wagoner (@VanWagoner) July 22, 2019
I remember the time when @realDonaldTrump gave Jesse Jackson office space free of charge, to help him start the PUSH coalition. That was incredibly racist.
— daniel janicki (@daniel_janicki) July 22, 2019
Hey Little Brian, remember when @realDonaldTrump let Jennifer Hudson stay at his Chicago hotel, free of charge, for months after her mom n brother were murdered? That was incredibly racist!! #RacistPresident
— daniel janicki (@daniel_janicki) July 22, 2019
DECADES?
lol. Democrats only started calling Trump a racist when he decided to run for President. As a Republican.
Dems did the same to Mitt Romney, John McCain, both Bushs', AND Reagan.
Because Dems have NO ideas… that's all they can do!— Bonnie O (@bloc52) July 22, 2019
He was a darling of the Dem's and MSM for decades. The left loved his $ and his support until he committed the mortal sin of opposing the Clintons and winning. He's always been bombastic but it didn't matter then once he stepped out of line and whipped his masters… He's racist.
— Domenic Nicotera (@Dsnicotera) July 22, 2019
Before Trump became a threat to HRC, Oprah had him on her show and teased him about running for president and Jesse Jackson praised him for hiring so many blacks to build his buildings. A Google search pre-2016 shows virtually zero reports that Trump was considered a racist.
— Brad Coleman (@capablanca5) July 22, 2019
Chuck Schumer has been in office for 38 years
Nancy Pelosi has been in office for 32 years
Maxine Waters has been in office for 28 years
Joe Biden was in office for 44 years
Yet they blame all of America's problems on Donald Trump, who hasn't even been in office 3 years?
— JP (@TDMBME8387) July 22, 2019
Heck, Kamala Harris all but called Joe Biden a racist at their first debate, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has made it very clear that Speaker Nancy Pelosi seems to target women of color in Congress.
CNN has been stoking racial tension for decades. The democrats have also been stoking racial tension every four years.
Time to pack it up Soy Lord. 50% ratings decrease. Not looking good.

Doesn’t he have a book whining about Fox News in the hopper? If he can just ride “Reliable Sources” until those sweet book royalties start rolling in.
