The mainstream media is having a total meltdown. And they’re taking everyone down with the ship.
Now CNN HQ is on fire after being exposed live on air for all to see.
A CNN panel took a sharp detour Monday when GOP commentator Scott Jennings squared off against a chorus of co-panelists claiming Americans — Republicans included — are fed up with President Donald Trump’s leadership style.
Jennings wasn’t having it, firing back that Trump’s base is thrilled, pointing to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) slashing federal bloat and delivering on campaign vows to curb waste, fraud, and abuse.
The sparks flew early. “Republicans absolutely voted for this, number one,” Jennings asserted, setting the tone.
“Okay, people do not want government waste, that’s for sure, but they didn’t vote for foresters to get fired —” a panelist countered.
“Yes, they did,” Jennings shot back, unflinching.
“— they didn’t vote for the parks to be closed. They didn’t vote for veterans to get fired,” she pressed on.
Jennings leaned in, dismantling their narrative.
“Look, you guys keep trying to create this fantasy land where Donald Trump is not popular, where Republicans are mad,” he said, his tone dripping with skepticism.

"Can you name a single Democrat in Congress who is more popular than Donald Trump right now?"

“Republicans are mad, they shut down the town halls!” another chimed in, recycling a tired claim — already debunked — that GOP voters, not Left-wing astroturf activists, were behind recent town hall chaos.
Jennings didn’t budge, pivoting with a challenge: “Can you name a single Democrat in Congress who is more popular than Donald Trump right now?” Silence followed.
One panelist dodged, muttering, “Scott, Abby’s the host, she can ask me the questions.”
Undeterred, Jennings doubled down. “Republicans are so happy with this,” he said. “They’re not upset about it —”
“No, they are,” another insisted, grasping at the thread.
“— the American people are happy about what’s going on right now because for the first time in a long time, a president said, ‘I’m actually going to reduce the size of government,’” Jennings wrapped up, landing his point with conviction.
The exchange was a classic Jennings flex — unapologetic, rooted in Trump’s promise-keeping, and brushing off the panel’s gloom-and-doom spin.
Republicans, he argued, are reveling in a leaner government, and the numbers back him up. The others? Left scrambling for a comeback that never came.
