The Spin

Vile comments like Girudsky's have no place on a tolerant platform such as CNN. Debate and disagreement should always be encouraged, but the broadcaster should've known better than to allow a far-right Project 2025 fanatic on live TV. This merely reaffirms that the MAGA movement is underserving of the attention the media continues to provide.

Having consistently likened Trump and his supporters to Hitler and the Nazis, CNN's double standards were once again on full display. It is clear that, despite being perfectly comfortable using inflammatory language when it suits them, the liberal media cannot handle anycomments comment that doesndon't conform to its way of thinking.
