According to a stunning new series of remarks from CNN anchor Dana Bash, the intolerance of Democrats who claim to be tolerant has been demonstrated by bad faith liberal criticism of politicians who appear on Joe Rogan’s program.
Outlets declared the election for President-elect Donald Trump in a shocking electoral landslide and a clear popular vote victory on Election Night, shattering expectations of a close presidential contest.
The unexpected outcome has elicited a torrent of introspection and recrimination among numerous Democrats, as well as a media frenzy.
The fact that Vice President Kamala Harris chose not to appear on Rogan’s program, while Trump did, has made him a significant subplot of the ensuing fracus.
On the Monday edition of CNN This Morning, Bash addressed the criticism that Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) had previously received for appearing on Rogan’s podcast and her interview with him over the weekend.
The question that I and I wanted to sort of illuminate this, shine a light on this with my interview with Senator Sanders was that to me is such a prime example of where Democrats have kind of lost those people now.
“The point I was making with him is that there are a lot of things that Joe Rogan says and believes that a lot of Democrats just totally shun. He’s said not great things about some social issues that Democrats don’t agree with. He doesn’t support vaccines.” Bash said.
“And so that is part of the reason why when Bernie Sanders went on the show, he got vilified.” she continued.
“But him getting vilified by a lot of people on the left is case in point of the intolerance among a lot of people in the Democratic Party who claim that their whole mission is to be tolerant.” Bash concluded.
