CNN took a break Monday from covering the drop in the Dow to blast President Trump for his use of the word “treasonous” to describe Democrats at a rally in Cincinnati.
Former NY GOP Gubernatorial candidateRob Astorino pointed out that the Democrats have an intense hatred for President Trump as evidenced by the refusal of many elected Democrats to attend his inauguration. Angela Rye, Astorino’s liberal counterpart on the panel, said that “there is something dangerously wrong with this President” and argued that it was “high time and overtime that he gets a psychological evaluation.”
When Astorino dared to suggest that Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters (Calif.) might benefit from a psychological evaluation herself, Rye chastised Astorino: “That is my mentor and you will not disrespect her that way ever.” With divisive figures like Maxine Waters amassing such a large following, it’s no wonder we live in such a polarized country.
Throughout the entirety of the heated exchange, Rye repeated the talking points of her mentor, painting the President as a racist and a bigot in addition to stressing the importance of bringing impeachment proceedings against him. Rye’s juvenile behavior included dismissing any criticism of Maxine Waters and President Obama as “false equivalencies.”
