You know when Jake Tapper is calling out Liberal Twitter that it’s got to be bad. And since the news broke about Al Franken yesterday WOW has it been AWFUL.
Case in point:
Liberal twitter today = 50% reexamining/regretting how they treated Bill Clinton‘s accusers; 50% attacking Al Franken’s accuser. pic.twitter.com/4qCiHg8ghK

Bingo.
Although he’s missing the 25% of Liberal Twitter that’s claiming Leeann Tweeden had it coming because she was a Playboy model and the other 25% that is arguing that since Franken only grabbed ONE boob it’s not a big deal.
And no, we’re NOT making this up.
Oh, and the reaction from Liberal Twitter is … hilarious:
Hey Jake: I haven't seen even an isolated attack on Al Franken's accuser–let alone any sort of coordinated through-line of attack like we've seen with Roy Moore.
You might know more than me–it's your job to know more than me–but I'm Extremely Online and this rings false.

Psh, we call BS.
You follow 527 people. Your assertion of expertise is not actually expertise.
— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) November 17, 2017
Boom.
Really? I haven't seen a single tweet attacking Franken's victim.

I’ve seen a ton. Of course I follow maybe 3x more people than you do
— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) November 17, 2017
People who aren’t seeing the attacks on Tweeden aren’t paying attention. They’re all over.
Prove it. Retweet some. I’ve seen none.

Gosh, this guy seems fussy.
Oddly enough I don’t feel the need to prove myself to you, tough guy
— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) November 17, 2017
Go Jake go!
I've not seen anyone attacking Franken's accuser.
— Scott Tobias (@scott_tobias) November 17, 2017
Well if you haven’t seen it then I’m sure it doesn’t exist?
— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) November 17, 2017
This just keeps going and going.
