CNN called "shameful" the message after Jake Tapper's silence when a guest said Trump had radicalized more people than ISIS

CNN and Jake Tapper, featured presenter, are under fire from critics for keeping quiet when a guest of his program said that President Trump had radicalized more people than ISIS. A few hours later, Don Lemon of CNN aroused the irritation of the majority, Steve Scalise whip, stating that the Democrats were not killing, completing a 24-hour period called "new low" by criticism.

CNN preached a call for civility since its headquarters in New York was evacuated when a home-made bomb was found in the mailroom last week, but critics say the network is only concerned about hate speech coming from from the right. This theory made its way when GQ Magazine's controversial columnist, Julia Ioffe, participated in Tapper's "The Lead" show on Monday, during a heated debate on hateful rhetoric.

"I think this president, one of the things for which he really launched his presidential run, is talking about Islamic radicalization and this president has radicalized far more people than the Islamic State does. has never been, "said Ioffe.

Tapper did not intervene, but David Urban, the symbolic curator of the panel, did not appreciate the remark.

Ioffe continued his speech on Trump's "radicalized" proponents when Urban broke up.

"Jake, it's irresponsible not to go back. It's irresponsible. For her, the President of the United States has radicalized more people than ISIS is irresponsible, "Urban said.

Tapper said, "OK, you do not agree with that", while other members of the jury were talking to each other and that Ioffe s & # 's 39, at his request.

A CNN spokeswoman said Tuesday night: "CNN has a diverse group of guests with a variety of perspectives, and obviously no presenter, including Jake Tapper, shares everything that everyone says. Julia Ioffe's comments were regrettable and we are glad she apologized. "

NewsBusters editor Curtis Houck told Fox News that the lack of refoulement was "scandalous".

"CNN is not interested in the unification of this country as they would prefer to invite guests like Ioffe to sow new divisions and create split screens between the president and the protesters while it is happening. was going to the synagogue, "said Houck.

Ioffe made brief apologies later in the series, exaggerating her comment during a "painful, emotional and personal time," and she was selected for another appearance on CNN a few hours later.

The widely condemned comment is not the first time Ioffe has been criticized for his extravagant rhetoric about Trump. She was fired from Politico in 2016 for an obscene tweet in which she implied that Trump had an incestuous relationship with her eldest daughter, Ivanka.

"CNN has invited one of the most toxic voices on the left. Someone who regularly exchanges groundless conspiracy theories and ad hominem attacks, "said conservative strategist Chris Barron at Fox News. "The results were predictable. Jake Tapper was sitting next to her while she was vomiting a really disgusting rhetoric, completely isolated from reality. CNN has rewarded her for this heinous behavior by inviting her to participate in another show of her network. A new stock for CNN. "

Despite the outrage of social media, CNN invited Ioffe to return to the network in prime time, when she made another series of disturbing comments. In a conversation about anti-Semitism and racism on "CNN Tonight" with Don Lemon, Ioffe said that Trump supporters tolerated inflamed rhetoric that turned into hatred.

"You can not overestimate the power of a president's platform. What he says, what he does not say and how he says it. The way he condemns the racist, when we can see him so shy. It's like a child forced to do something, "said Ioffe. "It's not just the monsters … it's also, sort of, the silent majority of Trump supporters who think everything is fine, who continue to support this president despite what's going on." he said."

Lemon – unlike his colleague earlier in the day – questioned the comment, asking, "Do you think it's a silent majority?"

"Yeah, I think that," Ioffe replied.

Ioffe then essentially said that Trump supporters ignored hate speech in exchange for tax cuts while Lemon had told him that she "had been perfectly successful".

"If they do not support it … the silent majority, they will activate it," Lemon said.

In the same episode of "CNN Tonight," Lemon also drew the attention of Congressman Steve Scalise, R-LA, in a conversation about the recent tragedies that have affected America. .

"The right group killed a woman in Charlottesville. This guy is a right winger who killed people in the synagogue. The right winger sent bombs to CNN and Democrats. I do not see democrats killing people, "said Lemon.

Conservative commentator Mike Shields, who was a guest, quickly reminded Lemon that "they tried".

Scalise – who survived an assassination attempt while he was training for a baseball game with other GOP lawmakers – made it clear on Twitter that he had heard the comment and reacted with a simple emoji who watched the eyes and his spokesman condemned the remark.

"Steve Scalise was nearly murdered by a member of the left who went to a baseball field with the specific intent of murdering several Republican congressional members. While this may be embarrassing for the story Don Lemon is trying to push, the fact remains that Democrats actually have a problem of political violence that can not be ignored or swept under the rug.
