Watch: CNN’s Jake Tapper Makes Embarrassing ‘Erection’ Slip-Up While Blaming Trump for an ‘Insurrection’

CNN host Jake Tapper was ridiculed on social media after making a mortifying blunder while interviewing Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley.

On Monday, Tapper accused former President Donald Trump of participating in an “erection” while the liberal commentator was discussing the U.S. Supreme Court’s unanimous decision to allow the GOP front-runner to remain on Colorado’s ballot.

In so doing, the nation’s highest court overturned a prior ruling by the Colorado Supreme Court disqualifying Trump on the basis that he had engaged in an “insurrection” when he challenged the results of the 2020 election.

“I was very happy with the Supreme Court ruling,” Haley told Tapper. “Look, I’m trying to defeat Donald Trump fair and square. I don’t need them taking him off the ballot to do it.”

That’s when Tapper committed the mother of all gaffes while haplessly trying to defend the Colorado ruling that was reversed.

“Right, the Colorado Supreme Court, of course, wasn’t saying — however partisan people might have thought that decision was — their official explanation was not that they didn’t like Donald Trump,” the CNN host said.

“They said he participated in an erection and I have to — an insurrection. Sorry, an insurrection. And I have to say, I got up at five this morning to do Kasie Hunt’s show and I’m exhausted.”

Some commenters invoked former CNN analyst Jeffrey Toobin, who exposed himself while masturbating on a Zoom call with colleagues in 2020.

Tapper joins a growing list of anti-Trump liberals who have committed the same lecherous flub, including CNN host John Berman and three well-known Democrats: Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Reps. Pramila Jayapal and Adam Schiff.

It is odd that so many Trump haters keep making the same raunchy Freudian slip.

What’s even odder is the hypocrisy of left-wing propagandists shrieking that questioning a sketchy presidential election is “insurrectionist” when Democrats did this nonstop after Trump’s 2016 win.

What a joke.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. 

 

Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal. 

 

And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people. 

 

The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.

 

We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.

 

But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight. 

 

The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help? 

 

With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed truth to millions of Americans. 

 

We can do this 

only with your help. Please don’t wait one minute. Donate right now.
