Jake Tapper has really opened up in the final run-up to the election, and now that Joe Biden’s been declared the winner by the AP and Fox News, he’s really opened up the tap. As Twitchy reported earlier, Tapper noted Saturday that “for tens of millions of Americans, our long national nightmare is over” — emphasis on “our.”
We hadn’t caught this before, but Todd Starnes scrolled by in our timelines and pointed out that Tapper has a habit of referring to President Trump’s children as his “spawn” — we don’t recall Barack Obama’s children called anything but his daughters.
So @jaketapper at CNN continues to call the president's children "spawn." I don't seem to recall him referring to Obama children with such contempt. #godless #viper

Here’s video of Tapper saying, “You should check out the Twitter feed of the president’s spawn. It’s like rantings in crayon by somebody having an LSD trip.”
"These are claims so wild they wouldn't even make — forget Fox — they wouldn't even make Fox Business, where all sorts of facts go to die’’ @jaketapper on the tweets of the "President's spawn". #Elections2020 pic.twitter.com/XzerZfggkD

Tapper just referred to the president's adult children as "spawn"

Has Jake Tapper always referred to Trump's children as "spawn" or is this a recent change?

Seriously @jaketapper? "Spawn." You really should backtrack that language if you're a putative journalist. https://t.co/OgUMuvTUqh

What does Jake call Hunter? Oh, that’s right. He ignores him.

That was yesterday. On Saturday, Kellyanne Conway managed to tick of Tapper, and he responded with a meme:
Stephen Miller is one of the most talented, intelligent & kindest people to work in President @realDonaldTrump’s administration!
The attacks on him are outrageous, unfounded & engendered by leftist partisan hacks who know how invaluable he is to the administration!

“One of the kindest people in the administration” seems a bit much for a guy who – per senior WH source – helped push child-separation, wanted the campaign to smear Kamala Harris with birtherism and is regarded by WH colleagues as a straight up racist. https://t.co/MxekVIGIvc

Jake Tapper of CNN was humiliated by Stephen Miller on live television. He hasn’t forgotten it!
“Reporter” @jaketapper was also unable to get a single source on the record.
Stephen is a class act, a bold leader in the conservative movement & Jake knows it! https://t.co/pn2skxnsg5

Is it just us, or is anyone else getting the feeling that this is what to expect from the mainstream media until Inauguration Day, and maybe after?
