CNN: CIA officers say Trump’s speech was disrespectful, Jake Tapper tweetsplains why

Trump held a bizarre speech at the CIA where he attacked the media, bragged about his inaugural attendance, and it sounded like the crowd was cheering wildly at him. Except the media is reporting that it wasn’t so much the CIA agents cheering, but people he brought with him. Now CNN is reporting that CIA officers are telling them they thought the speech was disrespectful.

Here’s their report – watch for the end where Tapper and Schiutto express their bewilderment:

After this, the Tapman went on a long Twitter tirade to explain why it could be considered disrespectful:

I think he’s pointing to the irony here of how conservatives used to be so exercised over Benghazi.

I know a lot of people think Tapper is just the same as the rest of the biased media, but I really do think he’s an honest reporter. He also has a huge respect for the military and law enforcement, so take that as you will…
