VIDEO - CNN’s Borger Whines that Trump Paid No ‘Tribute to Hillary’ | MRCTV

Minutes after President Donald Trump took the oath of office Friday afternoon, criticism poured in from CNN. Chief political analyst Gloria Border demonstrated why the outlet has the moniker “Clinton News Network” when she ridiculously whined that, “I was also surprised that in some way he did not pay some tribute to Hillary Clinton… He did not do it.”

According to Borger, it would have been seen as Trump trying to unify, but the citing of George W. Bush’s 2001 speech makes it sound as if she may have been expecting an apology for another outcome liberals hated.

She also complained about Trump being brutally blunt with former President Barack Obama’s record. “I couldn't help but thinking about the president sitting there when he talked about the American carnage that they had presided over,” she huffed, “I'm not quite sure that that would have gone over well with them.”

Former Obama advisor turned CNN commentator, David Axelrod skewered Trump for daring to talk about Americans showing patriotism. “We salute the same flag but not everybody in the country feels like they have an equal share of freedom, which is a big concern of many,” he scolded. He discredited Trump’s speech as just a “full-throated” “populist manifesto.”

Radio host Michael Smerconish griped that the speech sounded too much like the president was on the campaign trail. He argued that “it's a speech that could have been delivered in Michigan, Wisconsin, or Pennsylvania on November 7th.”

He agreed with Borger that Trump should have ‘paid tribute’ to Clinton, but extended it to all the partisan Democrats boycotting the inauguration:

I kept waiting for that paragraph, that beyond just extending an olive branch given that 60 democratic House members saw fit not to be here. To Gloria's point to acknowledge Bill Clinton and not to-- in the same breath-- to say and of course secretary of state was really surprising to me.

Clinton News Network indeed.
