Drew Findling: Trump's New Lawyer Once Called Him 'racist, Cruel'

Comedian Chelsea Handler responded to Republican vice presidential nominee J. D. Vance over the weekend after he insulted women by claiming the country was being run by "childless cat ladies." In a viral video shared on X, Handler noted that Vance's remarks were "ruffling a few feathers." "Listen up, you wingnut elegy!" she exclaimed.

CNN's Jake Tapper hasn't gotten any better since his disastrous performance during the first presidential debate between Biden and Trump. Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton made an appearance on this Sunday's State of the Union, and was asked about Trump's comments during a rally in West Palm Beach, where he told his MAGA cult that in four years they not going to have to vote again. Cotton, of course, downplayed Trump's remarks as a joke, before immediately pivoting into a lie-filled rant pretending everything was fabulous while Trump was in office, and attacking Kamala Harris, with little or no push-back from Tapper on the right-wing talking points Cotton was rattling off. TAPPER: How did you interpret that remark? COTTON: I think he's obviously making a joke about how bad things have been under Joe Biden and how good they will be if we send President Trump back to the White House, so we can turn the country around again. That's what the American people know.

Minnesota Gov. Walz, who is on the short list of potential vice presidential candidates for Harris, did an excellent job knocking down Jake Tapper's concern trolling over whether his record as governor is going to add fuel to Trump's attacks that he's a big government liberal. Here's the back and forth between Tapper and Walz on this Sunday's State of the Union on CNN; TAPPER: Of all her potential running mates, you might have the most progressive record as governor.

Never mind who she's married to, you moron. Here's Trump at his West Palm Beach rally this weekend, pretending Kamala Harris hates Jewish people. TRUMP: Two days ago, she refused to attend the speech in Congress of the Prime Minister of Israel. She said, oh, I can't make it. There was just a small group of people, but they couldn't make it, because that's her original thought. That's where she comes from.

ABC host Martha Raddatz called out a surrogate for Donald Trump after the former president told a group of Christians that they would never have to vote again if he was elected in 2024. "You won't have to do it anymore," Trump told the group recently. "You won't have to vote anymore.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg rebuffed Fox News host Shannon Bream on Sunday after she suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris was unqualified to lead the country. During an interview on Fox News Sunday, Bream noted that one conservative New York Times columnist had called Harris's candidacy "anti-democratic." "That's the playbook of ruling parties in autocratic states," the Times column charged. "You know the optics of this, that it was donors who pulled the plug on President Biden and they're the ones calling the shots about how this proceeds," Bream said. "Well, it's true that the Democratic Party is not famous for falling in line," Buttigieg replied.
