Newsmax Host Confronts James Comer About Disastrous Interview with Jake Tapper: ‘He’s Trying to Make You Look Like a Joke’

Rep. James Comer (R-KY) defended last Friday’s disastrous interview with Jake Tapper during a Monday morning appearance on Newsmax. He admitted that, while the CNN anchor is very smart, he’s trying to appeal to a “low IQ audience.”

Comer deserves credit for appearing on The Lead, the full interview of which is must-see TV for anyone interested in quality political media. Tapper threaded a seemingly impossible needle of politely ridiculing his guest while also taking his allegations seriously — or giving Comer enough rope to hang himself.
