CNN continually brings on the worst people to defend the indefensible. Scott Jennings apparently took the day off yesterday, so NewsNight had this Trump shill kissing Trump’s backside in his place.
During a discussion about E. Jean Carroll finally getting her long overdue $5.6 million payout from her civil sex abuse case against Trump, Republican activist Terry Schilling trashed Carroll, called her “crazy,” and accused her of “cherry-picking” her jury and court.
This is the same guy who persuaded Republicans to start targeting trans people, which The Assembly did a deep dive on last year.
Here’s more on the NewsNight exchange via Mediaite:
“This is lawfare!” he said, insisting Carroll had not presented any evidence of her claim.
“No other President has had this type of lawfare thrown at them,” he insisted.
Former Texas congressional candidate Isaiah Martin was quick to point out: “No other President has gone forward and been found civilly liable for sexual assault. What are you talking about?”
