While discussing President Donald Trumps most recent controversy, Ukraine, a staunch ally of the president, Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, was challenged by CNNs Jake Tapper on Sunday. Tapper used facts and Jordans own issues while confronting him about throwing out wild allegations against people, which the congressman continues to do to deflect attention from Trumps troubles.
I think that you came here and leveled a bunch of accusations and allegations about Hunter Biden, Tapper said of the widely debunked story that supposedly connects the former vice presidents son to wrongdoing in Ukraine.
Jordan then went after Tapper, claiming that hes going out of his way to defend Bidens son, saying, Its amazing the gymnastics you guys will go through to defend what . . .
But Tapper interjected: Sir, its not gymnastics. Its facts. And then Tapper alluded to accusations that the congressman turned a blind eye to sexual abuse while he was a coach at Ohio State University, saying, And I would think somebody whos been accused of things in the last year or two would be more sensitive about throwing out wild allegations against people.
