Trump Gets Caught In His Own Deplorables Trap While Whining About CNN

This is why it’s hard for Donald Trump to complain about the “deplorables” comment.

Donald Trump complained Saturday morning about CNN’s “boring anti-Trump panelists, mostly losers in life!”

This is ironic and weird given that CNN is the only outlet known to employ someone who is still getting money from Donald Trump and is reportedly unable to comment negatively due to the non-disclosure agreement Trump makes everyone around him sign — “former” Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.

Every day, Donald Trump says or does something either so deplorable it’s hard to put into context for voters – like last night when he suggested that Hillary Clinton’s Secret Service team go unarmed and “Let’s see what happens to her!” – or he’s calling people names on Twitter on par with the worst kid in junior high.

Trump’s biggest weakness is that everything he tries to attack others for is nothing more than a form of projection. Trump whines about while ignoring the hypocrisy that people from his own payroll are on CNN’s staff. Donald Trump is drowning in his own deplorables as every complaint is invalidated by the candidate’s own history of condoning, encouraging, and supporting vile behavior.
