Jake Tapper steps in it

Looks like Conservative News Network (CNN) stuck its foot in its mouth by having its mouthpiece Jake Tapper go on about how President Biden should do some reaching across the aisle bullshit and invite Orange Florida Man (OFM) to accompany him to Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral. Well, it looks like that is not happening and CNN will have to eat a healthy died of crow here. Only the President and the First Lady are invited while none of the former US Presidents or their spouses are.

Those in charge of the funeral told foreign leaders that only they and their spouse/partner could attend the funeral, or if they were sending someone in their steed that person and their spouse/partner. And to arrive on commercial flights if possible. This was all due to logistical challenges, including space and security considerations. At first, they were planning to make foreign leaders – including Biden – ride to the abbey on buses from centralized locations. (Which I have no doubt Biden would be happy to do, unlike OFM). They later walked back those requirements and said Biden would not have to ride the bus and could use his own vehicle.

These developments are a bit of good news. Not only will OFM not be invited to the funeral, but the decision was out of Biden’s hands entirely so the likes of Tapper, CNN, and the GQP will not be able to blame this on Biden (God knows they’ll probably try though). As I said, crow is on the menu for Tapper and CNN due to their arrogant presumption that the Biden could invite anyone he wanted to the funeral and the Brits would just accept that. Nope, that’s not going to happen. CNN made itself look stupid suggesting that, and the British were happy to oblige.
