RFK Jr. rips CNN moderators, praises Trump as 'greatest debater in modern American history'

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ripped CNN debate moderators Dana Bash and Jake Tapper Tuesday for “cheerleading” COVID lockdowns — before praising former President Donald Trump as the “greatest debater in modern American history.”

Kennedy, 70, predicted on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” that neither Bash nor Tapper would ask “tough questions” of either the 45th or 46th US presidents due to their support for both administrations’ pandemic-era policies.

“On some of the biggest, most monumental decisions during their presidency, like the lockdown of the American public, the CNN announcers were cheerleaders for those lockdowns,” RFK Jr. told host Piers Morgan.

Him being excluded from the debate, just makes me want to vote for him more. F CNN

[johnflorio]

If CNN thought RFK’s presence on stage would help Biden win the debate then he would be up there front and center.

[Josh_giddy_chad]

No matter your opinion on him our democracy shouldn’t be corrupted let him debate

[AmosBunny]

Until this, i was listening to him occasionally . Think I'll change my mind.

[beebee]

Classy. He does not insult or make dramatic remarks. I wish we could bring this decorum back to the White House

[chrispalms]

Rfk jr has way more support than people think, the ban from the debate just made the people backing him stronger and more united. I don't think people on the Republican side and Democratic side understand that. Majority of American do not want Donald Trump or Joe Biden.

[robertungerbuehler]

Your Grandfather was the smoothest debater I've ever seen.

[Velsigne]

how ab we mention Biden’s quote that he won’t participate if RFK Jr. is on the debate stage and CNN’s obedient compliance?

...and he's slicker than a bucket of minnows😂

[childofmary]

Watch RFK’s response debate with John Stossel as moderator. It’s very compelling! I think he would make a wonderful, moderate president, which is what we need. Enough of the extremes.

[cfemi]

Isn't it obvious that he will win

[BarbaraBurkert]

Thank You Mr . R F K JR . , You are right !!! 👏👏🇺🇸

[JefSpalding]

Lets listen to the rest of what RFK has to say .. why did they stop the video there ?

[nunya]

I’m sooo sick of these tiny clips of people talking, cutting off whatever else they were saying before and after. Context is crucial folks!! Please tell me I’m not alone and we are all done with this BS version of news…

[Jsse]

"You're a real tough guy aren't you, Jeb?"

[jacobclark]

Reagan wasn’t called the great communicator for nothing. He was no slouch either.

[wb]

RFK Pulled more views on his debate than CNN lol

[superfly]

If anyone actually cares about our future and the wellbeing of their neighbors they should vote for RFK jr. Both trump and biden are equally humiliating in their own different ways. NEITHER are fit to be president. Both couldnt be more different, both couldn't be further from being presidential material.

[marysketch]

Weird he would say "He's extremely entertaining to watch." I LOVE Kennedy but have made it a policy to never listent or even read anything Trump says. It lead to digestion problems for me, serious digestion problems! Which only stopped when 1) I stopped listening to CNN after Trump won, who 2) were constantly talking about him. I don't love everything about Kennedy, but I was wowed by his speeches both in Aurora, Co and at Lbertarian convention.
