Jake Tapper had a chance to expose the hypocrisy of the Democrat Party, but he chose to do a softball interview instead.
Tapper, who used to be a respectable journalist and still has an occasional moment, fell flat on his face while interviewing Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.).
Jeffries is expected to take over leadership for Democrats in the House.
Sloppy
Jeffries has been an election denier since popping on to the scene.
He made no qualms about the fact that he thought the 2016 election was stolen.
He also called Trump an illegitimate president on numerous occasions.
Former Trump White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer laid down a challenge before the interview…
Heads up @CNNSotu the likely new leader of House Dems – election denier @RepJeffries – is on your show tomorrow- maybe ask about this https://t.co/XhvB8JxHWJ

Tapper, of course, never broached the subject.
This was pretty ironic since Jeffries actually did bring up Republicans who are election deniers.
Spicer sent Tapper another tweet after the interview aired…
NADA
Over a 2 segment infomercial/interview with incoming House Dem leader @RepJeffries on @CNNSotu @jaketapper asked ZERO questions about his history of election denialIn fact it was Jeffries that brought the subject up – twice – and still nothing https://t.co/b0sp62ycDK

Jeffries is going to take the Democrat Party more left than it already is, so get ready for a very frustrating lame-duck session.
