CNN Mocks Gaetz For Hard Partying Into His 30s—Hunter Biden, Ted Kennedy, Hello?

Matt Gaetz's past behavior isn't role-model material.

By his own admission, Gaetz, in his 30s was "playing too hard....womanized, drank, and smoked more than I should have."

But that doesn't excuse CNN for its double standard on the subject.

At the end of a segment on today's CNN This Morning regarding the House Ethics Committee's impending release of its report on its investigation of Gaetz, host Kasie Hunt, speaking of Gaetz's activities, dubiously wondered, "in his 30s?" Hunt was apparently suggesting that the 30s are too old to still be a hard partier.

Annie Linskey of the Wall Street Journal agreed, saying, "I know. Maybe in your 20s."

Not so surprisingly, CNN never mentioned two other men who were still partying hard at an advanced age.

By his own admission, Hunter Biden didn't get sober until 2019--when he was 49. And then there's Ted Kennedy . . .

I know people in their 60s who still get hammered a lot. I’ll bet everyone in the CNN news room is a dope smoking drink and promiscuous. Especially this diseased s**t.

If I worked for CNN, my main concern would be getting my last paycheck cashed before CNN goes under.

John F. Kennedy was a partier until age 46.

He quit partying at that age. Permanently.

Gaetz was my Congresscritter.

We’ve known all about him here for a decade. He was a state Rep in Tallahassee, and his family is very prominent here.

We’ve known Matt and his antics here for a long time. I guarantee you he would still be reelected.................
