CNN Panel Melts Down Post-Debate: ‘That Was A S*** Show,’ ‘Horrific,’ ‘Hot Mess,’ President Hit ‘New Low’

CNN panelists railed against President Donald Trump following the first 2020 presidential debate on Tuesday night, calling the showing a “s*** show,” “horrific,” a “hot mess,” and bashing Trump for interrupting and “attacking” Democratic nominee Joe Biden and “lying.”

“That was a hot mess, inside a dumpster fire, inside a train wreck,” CNN host Jake Tapper said. “That was the worst debate I have ever seen. In fact, it wasn’t even a debate; it was a disgrace. And it’s primarily because of President Donald Trump, who spent the entire time interrupting, not abiding by the rules he agreed to, lying, maliciously attacking the son of the vice president.”

“When asked to condemn white supremacists, he brought up the name of a neo-fascist, far-right group and said, ‘stand back and stand by.’… I can tell you one thing for sure, the American people lost, tonight. That is for sure,” Tapper continued.

“That was a s*** show,” CNN’s Dana Bash said, adding, “I couldn’t agree with you more, Jake.”

Bash said the debate was a disaster from both sides, noting of Republicans and Democrats apparently reaching out to her. However, Bash went on to hit Trump for hitting a “new low” when he was seemingly callous about Biden’s late son, Beau Biden, though Trump hit at the other son, Hunter Biden, not Beau.
