CNN’s Jake Tapper Allegedly Tried To Convince Republican Candidate Sean Parnell To Run In Different District

Jake Tapper Sean Parnell

CNN’s Jake Tapper allegedly attempted to convince Republican House candidate Sean Parnell to run in a different district.

“Jake Knows Exactly What He Is Doing Here”

Sources close to Tapper informed Breitbart News that he had tried to convince Parnell, who is running against Democrat incumbment Connor Lamb for his Pennsylvania House seat, to pick a different district to run in, via a number of text messages, Twitter direct messages, and a phone call.

“Jake knows exactly what he is doing here,” the source told Breitbart. “This is a swing district in a swing state — Jake knows that Sean can bring out voters that might otherwise stay home but if they come out, they’re voting for Trump. Those votes could deliver the state and the election to Trump. This is nothing short of a CNN anchor interfering in a national election.”

The seat was won by Lamb in a 2017 special election, after President Trump had carried the seat in the 2016 presidential and congressional elections, and may be one of the key districts that Trump needs to win to carry the state again, making Tapper’s potential influence critical.

“Still A Democrat Operative At Heart”

“How many other races has Tapper interfered with? He’s the face of CNN and given these revelations, it ain’t a pretty face,” a Pennsylvania Republican operative told Breitbart, concerned that Tapper may have exerted his influence across the rest of the state.

A senior national campaign staffer for the GOP noted that Tapper used to be a Democrat operative, and is now once again acting as one:

He is a former staffer for the Brady Campaign for Gun Control. Now he is a reporter at CNN who is supposedly unbiased, but he’s still a Democrat operative at heart.

By attempting to bully a star Republican recruit out of his race, which would in effect help Democrat Conor Lamb and bolster Pelosi’s chances of keeping the House, Jake has officially given up on journalism in exchange for Democrat activism.

If CNN actually cares about ethical journalism, Tapper will face consequences from them.

Tapper Denies The Allegations, But He Would Anyway!

Tapper has officially denied the allegations, according to former acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell.

Of course Tapper would deny this. He has every reason to do so, because it shows the mainstream media, and CNN in particular, for what it truly is – the propaganda wing of the Democrat Party!
