After a few minutes, Jake Tapper begins to go off subject into other matters of material interest to himself. President Trump rejects the effort and reminds Tapper do not disrespect the moment and stay on the subject of Lindsey Graham. WATCH:

Perhaps you will depart tomorrow.
Perhaps I will.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.
Perhaps I will die 5 minutes from now.
Every heartbeat, every breath, they all belong to and are given by the Lord.
So I will praise Him with both until the days He wrote for me in His book of life are complete.
Perhaps a toxicology screen is appropriate.
He had just taken a long flight both ways. In that circumstance, it’s not terribly unusual to develop a blood clot (which is why you need to walk a bit during the flight, especially if you’re older), which can break loose and ultimately do you in. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the cause of death.
Amen. God is the only one who knows our time of death.
God designed us while we were in our mother’s wombs, the time of our birth, and the time of our death.
May God bless us all.
Did he design when we would die or is it that he’s omniscient and knows when we will die? After all we have free will.
He doesn’t make someone overdose they just take too many drugs that kill them.
Not saying you’re wrong. Just throwing out a different angle.
Why is PDJT running to all these fake media outlets so soon?
Do you really think the President is running to them?
Yes. And I find it wonderful. He is controlling the initial response. And they feel obligated to let him.
“President Donald Trump initiated the appearance on CNN’s State of the Union by favorably responding to host Jake Tapper’s invitation for an interview, which Trump noted he had not done with the network in months.”
An invitation for an interview was extended, the President accepted and initiated a response. That’s not exactly running to media outlets.
Exactly.
So they can continue to embarrass themselves and show their true colours.
“President Trump rejects the effort and reminds Tapper do not disrespect the moment and stay on the subject of Lindsey Graham.”
Trump has always been an odd duck. He has turned very vile with some loyalists when they go against him and then he piles on the love for many never-Trumpers like Graham. You just never know.
Wrong
“You just never know”
That is by design, IMO.
Throw off the algorithms and keep the enemy guessing.
Like being logged into YouTube and playing CNN and MSLSD when your at work – the algorithm will not know what to suggest when your actually watching conservatives that have not been thrown off YT. Yet.
Wrong
PT’s comportment is entirely appropriate given the circumstances, IMO.
PT is a gentleman, with all the attendant qualities therein,
and Sen. Graham was a personal friend, even if a political foe.
PT is a gracious man, and he knows who, and who does not, deserve a kind response.
Corporate etiquette…nothing more.
Tell me you didn’t listen to his words without saying you didn’t listen to his words…
🙁
My understanding is that CNN, and other outlets, solicited a response from the President on the unexpected news of Graham’s passing, so the White House arranged a call in, to discuss Lindsey Graham – nothing else, as Tapper was reminded.
J
it is the sick who need a physician, not those who are well.
Please, stop. Trump is NOT running to fake media outlets so soon. He is the president of the US and the public wants his reaction and comments to the unforeseen and tragic news. Give it a break.
With all the fake news we have to contend with, it’s appreciated on this site, that comments are as factual as possible.
Thank you for your attention to this matter Frankiezee
Running? Did you even listen to it before running your mouth?
Keep your enemies closer.
Ole’ Jake couldn’t take control of the narrative, so he asked for any final words about Sen. Graham in closing.
Him got butt hurt. Boo Hoo!!
If you don’t die of cancer, you die of a heart attack, which often comes suddenly and without warning. That’s likely what happened to Lindsey Graham.
Years from now, hundreds of thousands of people will die in their old age from cardiac arrest brought on by myocarditis which was in turn brought on by the inflammation caused by spike proteins in COVID vaccinations. Because years will have passed between the vax dates and resultant heart attacks, few will make the connection and Pfizer and Moderna will, once again, be off the hook.
God rest and keep Senator Graham.
This is true. Every day is a gift of God. My belief when politics (and trillions) are involved; nothing is coincidental.
Graham was 8 years my junior and I’m still enjoying God’s daily gift. But they’re still pushing the vax hard. Yesterday, I went to pick up my statin drug (to prevent a heart attack) at the grocer’s pharmacy and found a flier tucked in my bag offering $20 off my groceries if I get a COVID jab!
I don’t need 20 bucks that much!
And there will be other environmental hazards to blame.
the drinking sure wasn’t helpful
The fbi is investigating Graham’s death?
I think that is SOP for the FBI when a member of Congress suddenly dies. Particularly a senior member like Graham who, I believe, was cleared to view classified information.
Another case of heart related “die suddenly” for a relative young man with no apparent health condition.
How many “vaccine”shots did he take?
I grew sick of him always beating the war drums. I wanted him primaried.
Please folks if you don’t know Jesus as your Lord and Savior accept his free gift of salvation today. Heaven or Hell your choice where you spend eternity.
TRUE, there are no second chances after death.
Correct. That would be a third chance. There are no third chances.
Just as an aside, if the vax was killing young men’s hearts it was surely killing old men’s hearts.
Old men though have so many other possible causes that kill hearts that they could sweep the vax heart deaths under the rug.
Young Men don’t have those causes. They couldn’t sweep their heart deaths under any rug.
There is no magic vulnerability only when young.
Yet they were still able to fool us into thinking that it was safe for old people.
Propaganda is wicked.
Young me not having those causes…that includes high school and college athletes, and other athletes.
…and just like that The Save Act is dead…
Trump Says Lindsey Graham’s Sudden Death is a ‘Big Blow to the SAVE America Act,’ Details Their Final Conversation on Meet the Press
by Cassandra MacDonald Jul. 12
President Donald Trump described the sudden death of Sen. Lindsey Graham as a major setback for one of his top legislative priorities, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday morning.
Trump said that he spoke with Graham just hours before the senator’s death late Saturday night and called the loss “a big blow to the SAVE America Act, let me tell you.”
Trump told host Kristen Welker that Graham had just returned from a trip to Ukraine when he called the president Saturday evening.
“I got a call last night, sometime in the early evening. He said we’re all set for the SAVE America Act,” Trump recounted. “He was pushing the SAVE America Act like crazy. He got back and said he just landed from Ukraine. I said, ‘That’s a long trip to make.’ He sounded a little tired but perfect, but a little bit tired, and had a right to be. He was a worker, he was really a worker. But he sounded great, actually, but he actually said he was tired. But he wanted to pass the SAVE America Act, and I said, ‘We’re going to get it done, Lindsey, we’re going to get it done, I’ll see you, like soon. We might even meet today.’”
Setting up a renewed push to pass the SAVE America Act in honor of longtime Senator Graham, who strongly supported it.
President Trump, above all, is a pragmatic man, with his eyes always fixed on the prize.
Trump will rename the SAVE Act in honor of Lindsey
BUT..lets pray together…and I really do mean LET US ALL PRAY TOGETHER that President Trump does not get involved in getting vote reform passed by signing off on more secret police spy state authorities.
I cannot over state the mistake that would be.
it would be trading one great option for another that would crush any possibility that elections would be free and fair every again.
it’s not rocket surgery…if you give the police state that power …it’s not just spying on Americans that is the problem….it becomes the very genesis by which fraud can be institutionalized, sanctioned as a national security goal.
we have to get back to the constitution about what it means to be free, to have liberty. These powers have already proven to tempting to not use them for nefarious purposes.
most people cannot seem to connect the dots about this, even though it is very clear and has already happened.
when you KNOW ALL THINGS SECRET…you can control all things public. It really does work that way.
think about planter for just a moment. just use that example. we can argue whether he did it or not all day long…but the fact IS that none of these so called women who were raped filed any kind of police report. He is being defunded because of the “appearance” of wrong doing. no proof…no evidence..just heresay…gossip rumor. We tend to think that’s okay..because he is Democrat…but this misses the bigger point. It’s an obvious means to install someone else. Wrap up smear as nancy pelosi would put it. doesn’t have to be true and probably isn’t…but effective in ruining someone who you don’t want to have a position of power.
now imagine having ALL the private secrets…sifting through everything about Americans. Who gets to decide what is truth? what is hogwash? we already KNOW how the apparatus was used to abuse our champion, his advisors and associates..his family. We also know how the same apparatus refused to do the same for legitimate reason against Joe malarkey and the smartest man he knows, his son, the parmesan cheese snorting hooligan?
it’s too much power for anyone to have. It’s too tempting to use that authority and the conjure up complete lies…with the veneer of evidence gathered as a means to make it believable…even admissible to a court to impeachment trials in Congress. and no one gives pause and asks the right questions? how was this collected? is it actually true?
because that IS what happens when you classify and make secret this spy apparatus. no one gets to watch the watchers. there is no means to determine the truth..the truth becomes fluid, subject to the desirable outcome. who decides the outcome? some anonymous unelected group of contractors hired by a secret set of agencies who are never prosecuted for blatant abuse and manipulations of a secret court.
we have to start connected the dots folks and understand what is going to happen if we continue to ALLOW Congress to rubber stamp a secret police spy state. America no longer exists is what I am saying clearly.
We cannot allow that to happen. We have a rightful duty and are obligated to prohibit the central state from having this kind of power.
God Bless America
My lasting memory of Miss Lindsey is him and Pappa John, smirking, as they stand side by side picking up their graft $ in an office of the Ukranian government.There are very few heroes in the halls of Congress.
Absolutely.
and the you-crane flag lapel pin
Do not forget Senator Klobuchar was with them on that trip. Uniparty all in on that grift.
Well, other than in a substantially funded trust fund…
Ya can’t take it with you…its left for others to play with.
It’s best to look at the projects/legislation Graham was involved in to see who ‘had a dog in the hunt’ and why Graham was in their way.. Isn’t it always about money and power?
I wonder how long before they bury Graham…..his friend MCain took awhile..
Senator John McCain was buried 8 days after he died.
The time between his death and his burial was extended due to a massive, five-day cross-country procession honoring his life. His body first lay in state at the Arizona State Capitol, followed by a memorial service in Phoenix. He was then flown to Washington, D.C., where he lay in state in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda and had a national funeral service at the Washington National Cathedral.
PBS+ 2
Finally, on September 2, he was laid to rest during a private ceremony at the United States Naval Academy Cemetery in Annapolis, Maryland.
It will be interesting to see how he is honored .
Eight days isn’t that long or extended. We needed that long for my Dad just due to needing all the arrangements sorted, including scheduling the Mass of Christian Burial, and for friends and family from across the country needing time to travel here.
The funeral consultants said that taking even two weeks wasn’t unusual just with all the matters to be considered and the needs of the family.
It will ne hard to top the McCain Funeralpalooza-that was head of state stuff
Thank you, Sundance!
God bless President Trump.
Tapper has always been a 🐷! He has to try and discredit PDJT! He’s pathetic! 💁🏻♀️
Today is a day in regards to Lyndsey is to either talk about him gracefully and with kindness or respectful silence if one had hardened disagreement with Senator Graham. He served his nation and may he rest in peace. Remember we are the adults in the room and it is we who demonstrate sincerity, respect and proper dignity.
and we have a duty to speak truthfully about facts. Otherwise, we would be a dishonest bunch of nitwits.
not arguing your point…but there is a reason many of us are reminding why graham was an awful person…and that’s putting it lightly
We all live by God’s Grace. We are all sinners! We all need to accept Jesus and repent! 🙏
I doubt he’s too broken hearted about LG. More so probably concerned about losing the seat if a weak republican gets appointed or nominated by the gov, what-ever the process is. Setting himself as kingmaker in the process. Imo.
Jake Tapper is insufferable.
Lindsey Graham was always a never-trumper. Fake Jake is such an a**.
The dramatic timing of his death (immediately after a high profile diplomatic mission to Ukraine) thwarted the official narrative (sudden heart attack [1]] or a terminal malignant illness) of a standard medical explanations. As the sudden death raises unprecedented national security questions, The FBI’s assistance to local police will likely do little to satisfy those who doubt that the death was natural. I cannot say whether it might already be too late for a forensic investigation.
