‘WORST of White SUPREMACY!?!’ Pro-Trump CNN Analyst Stunned By Ex-Biden Spox Bedingfield’s Slam On Trump

Pro-Trump CNN analyst Scott Jennings was taken aback by ex-Biden spox-turned-CNNer Kate Bedingfield’s hard shot at ex-President Donald Trump during debate coverage.

We all know how CNN’s debate Thursday night turned out now: deadly stumbles from Biden set the tone for debate coverage — though his performance improved as the debate went on. Brutal quotes from some Democrats and calls for Biden to drop out from his supporters in the media ensued, while Trump was roundly criticized for spewing a blizzard of falsehoods.

But in the before times, during CNN’s Debate Night in America pre-debate coverage, analysts were still duking it out to set the table for the showdown. Bedingfield stunned Jennings by accusing Trump of stoking “the worst of White supremacy in this country”:

AXELROD: He has tried to represent the whole country. I just — look, Trump has some strengths going into this debate. I think it’ll be really interesting if he argues that I’m the guy who can unify this country.

BEDINGFIELD: Also —

AXELROD: He’s never shown any interest —

URBAN: Only 38 percent of America doesn’t believe it, right? I mean, only 38 percent of America think he’s doing his job, right? According to the New York Times/Siena poll.

BEDINGFIELD: But also the notion that we would blame Joe Biden for putting forward a message about unity, working across the aisle to get significant bipartisan legislation done, including on infrastructure, including on guns and suggest that the solution here is to abandon the notion of unity.

And to say, no, in fact, we’re going to go back to Donald Trump who is all about division, who stokes the worst of, you know, of White supremacy in this country absolutely stood on the debate stage four years ago. Let’s see if we see another moment. But that tonight —

JENNINGS: The worst of white supremacy?

BEDINGFIELD: — stood on the debate stage.

JENNINGS: Have you looked at the newspaper the last week?

BEDINGFIELD: Would not condemn white supremacists. The notion that going back to that is going to further unify the country. That defies reason.

JONES: The lack of division. I want more unity.
