Mormon Tabernacle Choir member disregards CNN's disrespect showing she is more informed (VIDEO)

Jan Chamberlin, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir member who quit instead of singing for Donald Trump's inauguration appeared on CNN Newsroom where the anchor seemed to be condescending. CNN Anchor Carol Costello showed a level of condescension that was unbecoming. Jan Chamberlin came prepared and handled it well. She was steadfast on her reason for quitting the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

I also think people shouldn't do what makes them feel queasy. I support the choir person.

I like Ashley Banfield the best on CNN. Carol is usually pretty fair.

That's not the question. The question is, why is tRump skirting so closely to Fascist instead of doing everything possible to avoid such comparisons?

He's not trying. Therefore, we can only assume, like Hitler escalated his rhetoric, the more power he gets the more dangerous he might become. For those knowledgeable about history, we DO NOT want to go back to a time like that. If we use the same ratio of deaths caused by WWII to today's population (3% of World's population), you could expect 222,000,000 lives lost.

There is a lot at stake.
