Abby Phillip’s look of disbelief over Scott Jennings’ protection of President Donald Trump on CNN Tuesday almost received their debate by itself. (Watch the video beneath.)
On the “NewsNight” desk was Trump’s introduced plan to completely relocate Gaza residents and finally flip the war-torn space into the “Riviera of the Middle East” below U.S. “possession.” The concept has been met with worldwide condemnation and would seemingly re-escalate tensions and jeopardize hope of a two-state answer, U.S. allies said.
However Jennings, a Republican pundit, gave Trump a cross.
“I feel Rula [Jebreal] is correct in suggesting that that’s principally what Trump is suggesting: Forcibly eradicating Palestinians from their land is towards worldwide legislation,” stated Phillip.
“I feel we’re being a little bit dramatic, and we’re on our jump-to-conclusions mat right here a little bit bit,” Jennings replied. “He muses often.”
Phillip’s face says all of it:
“You’re suggesting that we’re making this up,” she continued.
“No, I’m not suggesting something,” Jennings stated. “Now, you’re placing phrases in my mouth. I’m saying you and I each know he muses often, and he’s aspirational, and he says provocative issues often.”
Phillip wasn’t shopping for it.
“Donald Trump, together with his personal phrases, stated that is what he needs to do,” she identified. “He wasn’t musing. He was trying down at a bit of paper. I’ve been in a room with him, similar to that, with overseas leaders, trying down at a bit of paper. He’s studying a press release that was ready for him. These are usually not musings.”
