During a recent appearance on CNN, pundit Scott Jennings forced a CNN anchor to admit that Vice President Kamala Harris and other Democrats have repeatedly lied about former President Donald Trump’s infamous “bloodbath” comment.
Earlier this year, Trump warned during a rally that there would be a “bloodbath” in the auto industry if he loses — referring to the potential economic impact of President Joe Biden’s second term on the auto industry. Of course, this context did not stop Democrats from screeching nonstop about Trump calling for political violence, with many leftist politicians and their allies in the mainstream media cutting context out of Trump’s speech to push their narrative.

Harris is one of the worst offenders with this lie, especially because she has effectively based her entire campaign on lying about her political opponents — to the point where she is now facing a serious defamation lawsuit from YouTuber Tim Pool after she took his comments out of context, added her own lies, then shared them on social media and caused serious harm to his business and threats on his life.

While many have called on Trump to sue Harris for egregious defamation, he has not done so, allowing Harris to continue pushing the “bloodbath” hoax and several other serious lies.
Jennings was apparently done letting CNN get away with ignoring Harris’ lies in the wake of the second Trump assassination attempt, pointing out that it was past time to call out Democrats still perpetuating lies.
Speaking to CNN anchor Abby Phillip, Jennings declared: “It is said by every Democrat working for or around her campaign, every day on this network and every other one! The ‘bloodbath’ thing is stated every single day. But my point is, ‘dictator,’ ‘bloodbath,’ ‘eliminate the Constitution,’ what do you think that does to people?”
The leftist CNN anchor attempted to interrupt, stating: “You’re referring to Trump’s use of the word ‘bloodbath’ when he was talking —”
“And what was he talking about?” Jennings cut her off.
“I’m going to explain it to people, because I think there’s confusion about this,” Phillip admitted. “The use of the word ‘bloodbath’ when he was talking about, you know, vehicle manufacturing jobs in the United States. Vice President Harris improperly and unfairly mischaracterized that as him saying there would be a bloodbath if she were elected. However, she did not say that if Trump were elected there would be a bloodbath, she did not say that.”
Jennings refused to let her get away with that mild condemnation, pressing the point that the Democrats have not stopped pushing that lie and have not received any pushback from the mainstream media.
“I know you have interviewed and have had people out here and have watched the same coverage I have. The ‘bloodbath’ garbage is an — it is a pillar of the Democratic campaign against Trump, as is ‘dictator,’ as is ‘eliminate the U.S. Constitution,’” he said.
