Weapons of Mass Deception: CNN is clutching its pearls a bit too tightly over criticism of Bush and Romney

Remember all those years CNN reacted with glee at every downward tick of President George W. Bush’s approval rating?

Remember when CNN political correspondent Candy Crowley repeatedly “fact-checked” Mitt Romney during a debate with Barack Obama?

Now, look.

Been covering Trump for three years now. Will never quite understand how the GOP tolerates his attacks on McCain, Bushes and Romney. The GOP just shrugs its shoulders.

There you have it.

Great news everyone, CNN thinks McCain, Bush & Romney are all good again.

When was CNN ever fair to any of those men? https://t.co/6Mll7yXBiL

It is really amazing how far hatred for Trump will push these networks.

Trump stormed through a GOP primary that was packed with established, experienced senators and governors. What exactly was your takeaway from that, Jim? https://t.co/RxQlbwUabM

Jim Acosta, for one, should be very thankful.

After all, if it weren’t for Trump being president, would anyone outside of CNN’s viewer (okay, viewers) even know who Jim Acosta is?
