From that same article:
Interestingly, CNN’s Jake Tapper tweeted in response to Rich’s original tweet: “That it even need be said is ridiculous, but mocking the 10-year-old child of a politician you loathe is odious, immoral, & self-defeating.”
I think CNN needs to give Jake Tapper a break as well as it appears he agrees with the SNL writers sentiment on homeschooled children being violent shooters when they grow up.
😦
I have no idea how you got there. He was condemning the original tweet by Rich.
“That it even need be said is ridiculous, but"
^This is how I got there. To me, it sounds as if he agees the homeschool suggestion is so true, that it need not be said … as in it’s obvious. Now, I’m not saying that is what he meant, it is how I perceive what he wrote. This isn’t his first rodeo and certainly would not be the first controversial thing he’s said openly.
No, Tapper is definitely saying “I can’t believe you need to be told this because it should be obvious, but that’s a really terrible thing to say about a child.”
