There is no defending this!
Recently on CNN network chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin condemned Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) for threatening Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.
According to Breitbart, Toobin said, “If you parse what Chuck Schumer said, it was wrong, it was inappropriate. It was not the way you should talk about the Supreme Court. Frankly, no one noticed what he said until Roberts intervened. But it was political hyperbole of the sort politicians shouldn’t engage in. What’s really unusual here is Roberts getting involved when Chuck Schumer is not exactly the American figure we think of who usually engages in nasty politics. That’s, of course, the president. Roberts have been almost entirely silent about the president.”
Adding, “It was inappropriate. It did sound like a physical threat. I think if you look at Chuck Schumer’s entire record, if you look at how he behaves, he does not threaten people physically. It was certainly a bad choice of words.” You can watch a clip of Toobin’s comments here.
