CNN: Assassinating Trump Could Keep Obama Administration in Power
The Left can draw a line from a bullseye on Sarah Palin's website to the Gabby Giffords shooting. But THIS, if some wingnut tries to kill Trump, they won't see any connection. They're fine with this. You can see it already in some of the responses in this thread.

You're smug reply to "before 2015 state of the Union" is an article about 2015 state of the Union. Are you familiar with the term "prior"??


Well the article was published an hour prior to the 2015 State of the Union, so it seems appropriate. If you'd like to learn more about other designated survivors you can easily find them on the internet.

I'm also shocked that no one has mentioned that the video in the OP talks about what would happen if both Obama and Biden are killed pre-inauguration. It kind of destroys all the faux outrage in this thread.

One more day, I hope this fake news network isn't allowed in the white house press corp.

Correct. Then they proceeded to point out unsecured sniper positions where hypothetical snipers would have a good vantage point to fire. Despicable


Sounds like CNN and the progressives boycotting the inauguration have the mental status of a Banana Republic change of regime.

If any news organization spoke of a line of succession days before Obama inauguration they would be crucified at dawn and labeled racists and you know it.


Don't forget to add "keeping the racist opposition party in power". That is important piece to CNN's hypocrisy.

I can't believe the video showed how to smuggle biological weapons into DC

Yeah, not so much.

If you don't see the difference in hypotheticals about getting assassinated on your last day on office vs. getting assassinated on your 1st day in office resulting in the opposition party remaining in power, not much I can do to help you.

Yeah, um I'm gonna havta go ahead and tell you, that you are really-really stretching this crap. When they said both Obama and Biden die they then named SOS Kerry and others. Then @ executive orders @ whitehouse.gov Obama just so happened to designate SOS Kerry, Guess what? This little matter of succession has been covered already, no need for Obama's executive Order.

CNN presented this as a Developing Now, story, NOT as a poli science/history lesson.

My how the mighty have fallen. Once the defacto news organization in the US, now just the TV version of a trashy, sensational tabloid magazine.

CNN presents almost everything as a developing story. Hell every time they return from commercial it says "breaking news". It's stupid but it's what they do.

The OP video talked about who would be in charge if Obama/Biden were killed pre-inauguration, who would be in charge if Trump/Pence were killed post inauguration, then talked about Stste of the Union designated survivors.

And people in this thread actually bitched about it. I swear most of the posters on this board are more hysterical than Trump.

That is terrible journalism. Planting the seed in the mind of the twisted libs and SJW's out there to try this.

I wonder if they touched on the possibility of the ensuing riots in the streets leading to the hanging journalist from lampposts. Just a hypothetical scenario, of course.

Not CNN. YOU said CNN ran a story just like the one in the OP EVERY state of the union. All you can find is a two paragraph ABC.com article? Where is the CNN segment? Give me one from any of the last 8 years since 2015 didn't have one.

Thanks for proving my point and proving you were lying. Like I said. Must suck to be so reactionary and disingenuous. You are the edgy contrarian. So cool.

If I were Trump, I'd put those bastards right at the front of the press room and never call on them.
