CNN’s Jake Tapper Calls Out Trump’s Latest ‘Deranged’ And ‘Potentially Dangerous’ Attack
CNN anchor Jake Tapper criticized President Donald Trump’s accusations of “treason” against the network and New York Times reporter David Sanger over their coverage of Iran’s military capabilities. Tapper called Trump’s comments “deranged” and “dangerous,” noting that both CNN and the New York Times accurately reported that Iran still maintains some military capacity despite U.S. and Israeli attacks.
Trump lashed out at Sanger during a rant on Air Force One, labeling him a “fake guy” and accusing the media of misrepresenting U.S. military success in Iran. Tapper highlighted a Truth Social post from Trump, where the president condemned any suggestion that Iran is winning militarily as “treason.”
Tapper pointed out that both CNN and the New York Times cited U.S. intelligence reports confirming that Iran retains significant military assets, including missile launchers and attack drones. He emphasized that the facts reported by these outlets are accurate and not treasonous, despite Trump’s claims.
Referring to the Constitution’s definition of treason as “levying war” against the U.S. or aiding enemies, Tapper reiterated that reporting facts does not constitute treason. He emphasized that Trump’s issue lies with the intelligence reports contradicting his narrative, not with the journalists reporting the truth.
Tapper concluded by stating that the real issue at hand is Trump’s refusal to accept the ongoing conflict in Iran and his attempt to suppress the dissemination of factual information. He underscored the importance of journalists continuing to uphold their duty to inform the public, despite facing backlash from the president.
