Jake tapper critiquing Kamala while he is incapable of asking a follow up question shows everyone his ineptness

[edteller]

Tapper shouldn’t criticize as his performance as a moderator in the last Trump/Biden debate was pretty bad.

[cassandralibertywest]

It's about time journalists started being journalists again instead of bed mates for the Democratic party. Good for Jake Tapper.

[Q]

Tapper, Trump never answered any of your questions and you never challenged him. So what do you say about that.

[erikdraney]

What is the point of this segment. Jake did jack shit when he had a chance to correct lies and he sat there with a stupid blank look

[vastucson]

We saw Grandpa Cray-Cray in all his weird creepiness. He’s more a candidate for institutionalization than for elected office.

[jaymfom]

Stop being so smug Jake! Where was your journalism during the first debate to catch Trumps lies !

[farid]

J. Tapper is acting all cocky with Harris' various responses last night, but why didn't he fact check rambling Trump during the first debate?

[RameshPatel-bwbz]

Jack you miserably failed in moderating your last debate between DJT & President Biden. Once a credible TV host, you personally responsible for your own lost credibility & again trying to spiral it way down with this show now.

[eyeofamon]

David Muir and Linsey Davis did their jobs. Jake Tapper and Dana Bash did not. Sit down and zip it, Tapper.

[iyannepaongo]

Jake Flapper now is fact checking but did not fact check when Trump&Biden debate whatever 🤣🙄

[edification]

Vance is a SpongeBob character, a lot of IMAGINATION!

[SHARONSCULLY]

CNN get your act together and and report truthfully. Your channel and reporters have gone down the drain. SHAME CNN

[EdenfieldBandJax]

Jake Tapper has some fucking nerve saying anything about this debate. He and Bash didn’t do a fucking thing to stop the lies when they had the chance.

[Leni-wsu]

I am getting a laugh out of him criticizing Harris when her opponent was Donald Trump, the Great Debater!! Haha😂😂😂

[Booginsmcnutty]

Jake please, trump hasn’t answered a single question in years!

[leavingGodforGod]

Jake Tapper should be demoted at CNN... I don't want to hear whatever he has to say. Let him do the weather.

[scouts.]

Jake Tapper is a Trump fan...make no mistake

[rhondah]

Ah Mr. Tapper, you lost all credibility at the CNN debate and please tell me when during any presidential debate in modern history have the candidates directly answered each and every question. It has NEVER happened. However, calling out blatant lies and misinformation is something moderators are expected to do which you and Dana FAILED at spectacularly.

i like how he started off with a benign criticism of kamala just to cultivate a false impression of impartiality
