Who'd have guessed this was next?

Very instructive one minute clip:

Jake Tapper says the purpose of his book is to make sure there’s “transparency” with political leaders — then makes it all about Trump and “questions about his health."

That’s where this is going — media is going to use this book as cover to do… pic.twitter.com/lJpKbjEerw

VDH nails it:

🚨Victor Davis Hanson absolutely demolishes Jake Tapper: “One of the greatest acts of moral duplicity I’ve seen in my lifetime."

Brutal. And 100% accurate:

"Joe Biden has got cancer. He's written off. He's in decline. The family is disgraced. It's easy now to write about that."… pic.twitter.com/SoQBSodVH8

Here’s that moral paragon conducting an indoctrination class at George Washington University in 2018:

Jake Tapper Stresses Moral Courage, Decency in Politics

The CNN anchor spoke about his new book, “The Hellfire Club,” and the media’s coverage of Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign.

Mr. Tapper noted similarities in how the media covered both Mr. Trump’s rise and Mr. McCarthy’s rise. Journalists covered Mr. McCarthy without much analysis early on, publishing his baseless smears and inflammatory rhetoric without challenging the facts. The media also over-covered Mr. Trump’s political ascension in 2015, he said.

“You see the compromises come and eventually... you do see a lot of people just selling off little bits of their soul until there is nothing left,” Mr. Tapper said. “You take one step into the swamp, and then another, and then another, and the next thing you know, you’re up to your eyeballs in swamp water.”

Mr. Tapper credits Jeff Zucker, president of CNN, for acknowledging the wall-to-wall coverage of Mr. Trump’s early primary rallies was too much. He wishes Fox News and MSNBC leadership would come out and say the same.

Mr. Tapper sees himself as one of the tougher journalists who covered Mr. Trump as a candidate.

During a June 2016 interview, Mr. Tapper pushed Mr. Trump on his assertion that a Hispanic judge could not fairly preside over a case against Trump University because the candidate touted plans to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico. It was the last time he would interview the future president.

“Could I have been tougher? Yeah, I’m sure that there were times I could have been tougher, but I feel like I did a lot of tough interviews,” he said. “I feel like if my children study this era the way I studied the ’50s, I think I’m going to look OK.”

His children may think he was courageous and brave during his career, but history will judge him, at best, as a mewling lickspittle tool of his Democrat overlords, and at worst, a co-conspirator.
