Scott Jennings: Who’s Going Crazy About Trump Rhetoric? The Media, We Have Not Learned Anything in the Last 8 Years
EXCERPT:
JENNINGS: “I think on this rhetoric, you know, you asked what have we learned? Well, we've learned a couple of things. Number one, Republicans do not like illegal immigration, and they see this as a real crisis, and they want someone to be publicly tough. But remember, guys, number two, who's going crazy about this right now? The press. The media is going crazy about this language. And so when Republicans see the media going nuts about something that Trump said they reflexively rally to Trump. Have we learned anything in the last eight years? No, we have -- we have not learned anything because that's what the Republicans are looking for. Who's mad about this? And if -- and if the right people are mad about it, I'm going to -- I'm going to backdrop on it.”
