If you’re going to interview a Syrian, you might want to be prepared for what comes out of their mouth! That’s the lesson for CNN’s Brooke Baldwin learned as this interview with Kassem Eid, a survivor of the 2013 chemical attacks there, shows.
As most conservatives know, CNN — otherwise known as the “Clinton News Network” — is a pro-globalist operation, and while the network (especially CNN host Fareed Zakaria) and people like Hillary Clinton praised President Trump for his recent missile strike on a Syrian airbase, this survivor has some choice words regarding Clinton’s statements and former President Obama that CNN was probably not anxious to broadcast.
What CNN fails to mention is that Eid, who is presented here, is both a supporter of rebel groups in Syria and a failed American asylum seeker who lives in Berlin, Germany (which is likely where this Skype conversation takes place from). He’s written opinion pieces for the liberal New York Times and other publications offering his fairly one-sided (and likely exaggerated) views of the Syrian conflict.
CNN obviously expected Eid to both praise Trump for his strike, but criticize Trump’s immigration policies. If so, they probably should have given him a script to read ahead of time! Watch as he clearly veers from the narrative CNN was trying to push.
