CNBC host Joe Kernen has been going to extreme lengths to defend Donald Trump's candidacy including downplaying his sexual abuse and defamation of E. Jean Carroll. During a discussion with disgraced former House leader Kevin McCarthy, co-host Andrew Ross Sorkin described both presidential candidates on being good or bad. He singled out Trump as encompassing the whole gambit from being good to being extremely horrific, including being up on rape charges. After a while MAGA Kernen piped in to defend the indefensible. KERNEN: Donald Trump was not convicted of rape in the case involving Jean Carroll.
