Jake Tapper: ‘State of Our Union Is Appalled’

EXCERPT:

TAPPER: "Whose message is resonating with caucus-goers? Presidential candidate, Senator Cory Booker joins me next. Hello, I’m Jake Tapper in Washington with the state of our union is appalled. We begin this morning with a re-tweet from the President of the United States. Not a message about healing or uniting the country, one week after two horrifying massacres, not about the victims of those tragedies, instead President Trump using his massive Twitter platform, 63 million followers to spread a deranged conspiracy theory. Tying the death of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein in prison to the President’s former political rivals, the Clintons. I’m not going to show you the tweet but the spokesman for former president Bill Clinton responded to the President re-tweeting it saying 'ridiculous, and of course not true and Donald Trump knows it. Has he triggered the 25th Amendment yet?' President Trump could use his megaphone for anything. But the President often uses it to amplify that which is the worst of us. Personal attacks, bigotry, and insane conspiracy theories.”
