The Resistance Turns On Jake Tapper For Criticizing Their Lord And Savior

As we told you the other day, Barack and Michelle Obama were getting down with their bad selves at Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s concert in Landover, Maryland.

SO COOL! Do you think they danced to “N****s in Paris”?!

Like I said yesterday– this would be a different story if they were living their best lives in private, but they’re not. They’re still speaking at events. They’re remaining actively political. So no. You don’t get to continue to run your mouth about this country’s “racial divide” and “rampant sexism” while getting down to songs that describe women as b*tches and hoes.

Now, I’m not saying Jake Tapper feels the same way, but clearly, it’s not rubbing him the right way either.

The Democratic Party is the weakest it has been since the 1920s, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ https://t.co/ATqKBx4bq0

Don’t understand the point of this conversation. Does @jaketapper think Obama should be back in US leading Democrats or blaming @BarackObama for leaving Democrats in an incredibly weak position or just making random observation?

Kind of a combo of 2 and 3. Glad he’s enjoying his life; he’s entitled. Also, FYI, as we begin focus on Nov 2018 and 2020, he presided over a historically precipitous decline of his party. Just a factual matter. Some Dems seem angrier at my tweet than at that fact. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) July 29, 2018

Yep. They are LIVID. How dare he insult their Lord and Savior like that!!!!!!!!!!!

This isn’t a good take, Jake. It’s a bad tweet.

It makes me so sad that black people, no matter how much they achieve, just can’t get a fucking break.

Yes. Poor Obama. I feel so bad for him, dancing at Bey’s concert.

Seriously, Jake — I think you should examine honestly whether or not you would have felt compelled to tweet this if they were at a symphony or opera or art museum. Is there something about THESE artists that makes you go “Oh no, it’s hurting the Dems?” Implicit bias, much?

— Kerry Reid (@kerryreid) July 30, 2018

But I think we should keep dragging Tapper for this because it actually is quite revealing of his implicit bias and how that affects his reporting and commentary.

— Kerry Reid (@kerryreid) July 30, 2018

HAHAHA. Now they’re worried about a CNN anchor’s “implicit bias.” All it took was insulting Obama!

This is a bad tweet Jake.

Sorry Jake, but this is basically unforgivable.
