WTF???????? These people are insane. CNN has become unhinged. Maybe it's time that people who have cable petition their local providers to take CNN of the guide or make them part of the ultra premium package that few pay for

I love it when Progs come out without being asked to give their true feelings/intentions.
If you think they would stop at Trump and Pence, you are kidding yourself.

Seriously, how are these people still on the air?

The mental gymnastics and intellectual dishonesty you have displayed in this thread are disappointing. Would have been very easy to say it was in bad taste. Instead you try to compare the story today with snippets from news columns or quips on air. It isn't comparable. Truly driven by the D behind your name. Can't bring yourself to be honsest.

You wanted proof that CNN talked about who would be President should Obama and Biden be assassinated at the State of the Union. And look at that, you got an excerpt from the CNN coverage of last year's State of the Union where they did just that.
I'm not surprised you aren't actually responding to the content of what I posted - you don't want to admit you were wrong and desperately are trying to save face. Its understandable.

It's obvious to me that CNN is suggesting that a Hillary supporter assassinate Trump and Pence.
Arrest them all!

I agree it's irresponsible, however conservative media outlets were all over the "first black president being assasinated" angle in 2008.

Posters in this thread aren't willing to accept that CNN talks about the designated survivor every year before the Stare of the Union. They certainly don't want to hear about that.

If you watch CNN leading up to the State of the Union they'll talk about designated survivors and usually have brief videos with interviews of past designated survivors. Most of them hole up at a family member's place and are scared shitless throughout the entire speech. If you want to watch a CNN video where they are talking about what would happen if Obama and Biden were assassinated I'd direct you to the video in the OP. If you want even more CNN coverage of designated survivors or Presidential line of succession I'd recommend learning how to use Google.
I like how they leave out the part about keeping Bush in power unlike today. You know, what others might call, a motive.

Please. You stated that CNN does this same story every year. I asked for you to substantiate it. You offer evidence of a substantially smaller story in a materially different medium than the one in the OP. The only person reaching is you. It's a strange thing to need to defend a cable network...
And the fact you think anyone would need to "save face" around here is amusing. It's an anonymous message board. And you are usually laughed at on it. I know it's not in your nature...try to be honest for once. The coverage is different and you know it. I can't make you admit it...but my point has been proven.

To a point, there is no debate. Ryan and Hatch are still in their positions as speaker and president pro-tem. The only way it gets controversial is if all four are taken out.

What kind of credible news source even asks those type of questions? You know it's a BS liberal fantasy and it's disgusting.

Interesting details...during the last SOTU, there were two...Jeh Johnson and Orrin Hatch. You know it wasn't Obama's decision to include Hatch...Orrin must have made that decision on his own. I wonder if that decision by Hatch was influenced by the TV series. I had never heard of an opposition party member in line above the Cabinet sitting out the SOTU.
When Alberto Gonzales was during the Bush administration, he spent the whole time on a plane.

They do the same story every year discussing who would be President in the event of a disaster/terrorism/whatever that takes out our political leadership. I even showed you a transcript of that because you struggle to effectively search the Internet.

When did anyone claim that CNN's coverage of the designated survivor was the exact same length as the video posted here? Keep trying to move the goalpost!

I provided a transcript of live coverage of the State of the Union on CNN. Please explain how that live coverage on CNN is a "materially different medium" than the posted CNN video. Both were video segments played on CNN!
You're more defensive than usual. It's ok. You can admit to ring wrong and that CNN has discussed what would happen if Obama was killed. They did it before previous State of the Union Addresses. Hell, they did it in the video that started this thread.
