Cuomo: GOP Caught Between Lincoln and the ‘Man that Killed Him’ #Political
“Look, it's my argument to you that all of you have to worry about the GOP identity crisis whether it's your party or not, or you’re not about party,” he began his opening monologue. “Why? Well, we have to know if this party is going to at least try to return to the likeness of Lincoln or continue to court forces that are many akin to the man that killed him.”
After accusing Republicans of all being “extremists and conspiracy cultists” pushing “animus and violence,” he declared: “For a party that is consumed with division, with defining us versus them, well here's your chance. Us are those who live under the laws and intolerance of one another.”
Pointing to a video of the January 6 Capitol riot, Cuomo proclaimed they represented all on the right. “This is them. Do you see them? Do you see what they did? This is the only them to worry about in American society,” he sneered.
Then, after establishing his position that all Republicans backed the riots, he denounced them as the country’s worst:
And before anybody tries to make this about something else, “what about this what about the summer” -- remember this -- remember what you’re seeing. We have never seen anything like it. It is the worst, period. And they are our worst, period.
This was news? This was trying to turn down the rhetoric?
But what else can we expect from the CNN host who openly backs Antifa terrorists and Black Lives Matter riots? Of course, this was also the same guy who used his show to threaten the lives of Republican lawmakers, saying “they are going to lose way more than this election.”
Cuomo soon went down another repugnant path and told his viewers that Republicans didn’t care about Officer Brian Sicknick, who died defending the Capitol from the insurrectionists. He even went so far as to blame them for the delay in commemorating his life and service. Meanwhile, Democrats controlled both chambers of Congress, where Sicknick was going to be lying in state.
Pure exploitation of the dead.
“Why is this the first commemoration tonight of January 6? Back in 1988, we had two capitol officers that died trying to stop a gunman,” he chided. “Everybody was on board then, everybody talked about it and why its significance was so great. Not now. Why didn't the death of this officer cause the outrage in the GOP ranks of so many others?”
He cared so much about the example he was using that he said the wrong year. The shooting at the Capitol that took the lives of two officers happened in 1998. He wouldn’t correct the record until much later in the program.
This is CNN.
Chris Cuomo’s disgusting rhetoric stoking hatred against Republican was made possible because of lucrative sponsorships from Panera Bread and Navage. Their contact information is linked so you can tell them about the hate-filled content they fund.

9:00:36 p.m. EasternCHRIS CUOMO: Look, it's my argument to you that all of you have to worry about the GOP identity crisis whether it's your party or not, or you’re not about party.
Why? Well, we have to know if this party is going to at least try to return to the likeness of Lincoln or continue to court forces that are many akin to the man that killed him. Because that's what these extremists and conspiracy cultists are about: animus and violence.
For a party that is consumed with division, with defining us versus them, well here's your chance. Us are those who live under the laws and intolerance of one another. This is them. [Video of riots] Do you see them? Do you see what they did? This is the only them to worry about in American society.
So, as we watch a party in search for its soul, the answer is cloudy because we already know what the man whom many of them pay fealty to, the former president, wants to come of them and of these people and from them.
He's on trial for his incessant incitement for the angry to take action. That’s the case of incitement. For the angry to take action, to fight for the election to be overturned.
And before anybody tries to make this about something else, “what about this what about the summer” -- remember this -- remember what you’re seeing. We have never seen anything like it. It is the worst, period. And they are our worst, period.

CUOMO: Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick. He's going to be lying in state. He’s going to be lying in a position of honor tonight at the U.S. Capitol. He valiantly fought an armed Trump mob nearly four weeks ago. His family arrives soon with his remains.
Why is this the first commemoration tonight of January 6? Back in 1988 [1998] we had two capitol officers that died trying to stop a gunman. Everybody was on board then, everybody talked about it and why its significance was so great. Not now. Why didn't the death of this officer cause the outrage in the GOP ranks of so many others?
We on this show will not allow the Capitol attack to be forgotten.
