CNN's Jake Tapper Is Frustrated With Pence's Dodgy Ways
Vice President elect Mike Pence repeatedly refused to answer any questions asked by CNN's Jake Tapper involving Gen. Michael Flynn's son in connection to promoting the Pizzagate fake story and the very real consequences that it caused.
How long will it be before America gets tired of listening to the Trump camp refuse to address real issues and instead blame the media for ginning up negative another story about them?
Tapper asked what happened to Gen. Flynn's son, who has been pushing conspiracy theories like the Pizzagate lunacy.
Tapper asked, "Flynn Jr., was on the transition team, but a source familiar with the investigation tells me he was asked to leave and that the direct order came from president-elect Trump. Tell me what happened?"
Pence responded with a lengthy congratulations to Gen. Michael Flynn on his career and how happy they are that he's on their team.
After over a minute, he said, "Mike Flynn Jr., is no longer longer associated with General Flynn's efforts or with the transition team and we're focused eyes forward."
Tapper pressed on. "You're downplaying his role, but you must be aware that the transition team put in for security clearance for Michael G. Flynn, the son of Lieutenant General Flynn."
Pence replied, "I am aware in talking to General Flynn that his son was helping with scheduling, Jake. He was helping his dad arrange for meetings and provide meetings but that's no longer the case."
