CNN host Kasie Hunt criticizes Trump on Zuckerberg, Trump adviser responds with MRC poll

CNN has behaved downright strangely in reporting on Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitting that he caved to pressure from Team Biden to suppress dissent on Covid policy and “conspiracy theories” such as that Hunter Biden’s laptop was actually a treasure trove of details about the Biden family’s influence peddling.

We noted that they called it an “election year gift” to the Republicans, because Who benefits {cui bono!) is more important than what is true. On Thursday CNN this morninghost Kasie Hunt pushed Trump campaign worker Jason Miller around at a Politico story about a book by Trump coming out next week. Hunt quoted Trump as saying that Meta head Mark Zuckerberg would “spend the rest of his life in prison.”

Here’s the actual quote, via Politico: “We’re keeping a close eye on him, and If he does anything illegal this time, he will spend the rest of his life in prison — just like others who cheat in the 2024 presidential election.Miller cited our 2020 MRC poll on voters’ knowledge of Biden’s positions and controversies.

Ironically, in a discussion about the liberal media suppressing information, Kasie Hunt… suppressed information.

JASON MILLER: Well, President Trump certainly had a right to be angry at the timeand especially when I look back at that (clears his throat), excuse me, the censorship that happened in 2020. I mean, They used this guise of Russian disinformation to outright censor a story that turned out to be very true, using Hunter Biden’s laptop.

And it rigged the election. In fact, A post-election poll by the Media Research Center found that one in seven Biden voters had chosen a different path, possibly than President Trump, If they knew the truth about the foreign business dealings and everything else that was on Hunter Biden’s laptop specifically aimed at Joe Biden and the international community, we would say it’s corruption.

The survey found that 45% of Biden voters in seven swing states said they were unaware of the financial scandal surrounding Hunter and Joe Biden, and that If they had known about this, 9.4% of Biden voters would have voted for Trump. That would have been enough to swing six swing states in Trump’s favor, giving him a comfortable 311-vote victory in the Electoral College.

Here is the transcript.

KASIE HUNT: Jason, before I let you go, I want to ask you about another issue, a story that… A Politics story about a new book being published next week by your boss, the former president.

It says that Mark Zuckerberg, the head of Meta, plotted against him during the 2020 election. And that the Meta boss would spend the rest of his life in prison, end of quote. Of course, we also saw Zuckerberg send a letter to Congress expressing regret over some of the things Facebook did during the last election regarding disinformation.

Does the president, the former president, think the same about Mark Zuckerberg? Does he think he should go to jail?

JASON MILLER: Well, President Trump certainly had a right to be angry at the timeand especially when I look back at that (clears his throat), excuse me, the censorship that happened in 2020. I mean, They used this guise of Russian disinformation to outright censor a story that turned out to be very true, using Hunter Biden’s laptop.

And it rigged the election. In fact, A post-election survey by the Media Research Center found that one in seven Biden voters would have chosen a different path, possibly to President Trump, if they had known the truth about the foreign business dealings and everything else on Hunter Biden’s laptop What is specific to Joe Biden and the international community, in our view, is corruption.

HUNT: I ​​mean, do you think this is a criminal offense? According to the former president?

MILLER: Well, I’m not a lawyer. I’ll leave that up to the lawyers to decide.

But I do think that tThere was outright interference in the elections and some accountability should be given for that. It can’t just be a talking point for the left. It’s actually people who need to be held accountable, especially those 51 intelligence officers who deliberately, very specifically, knew that this was a lie, and who spread this Russian disinformation hoax.
