‘This is why you f—ers are losing'
Share this @internewscast.com

CNN anchor Jake Tapper recalled how a left-wing podcaster took a patronizing tone when he shared that his 15-year-old son wants to be a cop.

An anonymous podcaster insinuated that Tapper’s son harbors racist tendencies because he aspires to work in law enforcement, leaving the CNN anchor taken aback and viewing this as indicative of why Democrats have been faring poorly in elections.

“They made a joke about my 15-year-old son, saying, ‘Oh, how does he feel about minorities?’” Tapper recounted during an interview on “The Prof G Pod” podcast last week. “The notion was that because he wants to become a police officer, he is, therefore, my son is deemed racist. And, you know, that was the big joke.”

“Then I got dragged in the comments and all that stuff and, and I thought to myself, ‘This is why you f—ers are losing elections.’”

“The Prof G Pod” host Scott Galloway concurred, saying, “One hundred percent.”

Tapper did not specify the podcast where this occurred, only describing it as a “left-leaning podcast that shall remain nameless.” However, it seems to align with his appearance on “How Long Gone” from last April.

“How Long Gone” co-host Chris Black hit back at Tapper over the apparent dig.

“Him willfully choosing to take a joke wrong, that he definitely knew what it was in the moment, I would say is only a pro move,” Black said after a clip of Tapper’s jab went viral. “He spun it for his own gain, and it’s working.”

Tapper has been doing the media circuit to promote “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” a tome he co-authored with star Axios reporter Alex Thompson that was released last week.

The CNN chief Washington correspondent’s remarks came during a broader conversation about the Democratic Party’s troubles with men.

“My son is now 15 years old, and he’s a gamer. He’s a football fan, starting linebacker on his varsity football team,” Tapper explained. “The Democratic Party has no way of communicating with him. They have no entrée into his world.”

The CNN host also hit back at the condescending attitude in lefty circles towards people like his son and ripped into the jab at his desire to be a police officer.

“You’re deciding he’s a racist because he wants to be a cop. And why does he want to be a cop? He wants to be a cop because he wants to help people,” Tapper shot back. “He thinks that’s the best way he can help people. And that’s how the Democratic Party talks to men, not just white men, but men.”
