CNN political commentator Corey Lewandowski tried to hide his face from the media when he stepped off Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s plane in Newark, New Jersey on Saturday.

Politico’s Ben Schreckinger tweeted Saturday afternoon, “Lewandowski just got off Trump’s plane with a hood pulled down way over his face.”

Lewandowski just got off Trump's plane with a hood pulled down way over his face



3:17 PM - 15 Oct 2016

Weather.com reported that Saturday afternoon temperatures in Newark were in the low 70s, so presumably Lewandowski was not shielding his face from the cold.

NBC political reporter Sopan Deb confirmed that Lewandowski has been traveling with Trump’s campaign this weekend. Normally media personnel do not travel with Trump and his advisors. The CNN correspondent has faced conflict of interest questions since he left the Trump campaign and started at CNN. FEC records confirmed in August that Lewandowski was double-dipping by continuing to take funds from Trump while pulling down a paycheck at CNN.

1. CNN knew from the beginning. Eff them.

3. CNN damages its credibility every second this clown remains on their payroll.

Assume for a moment that CNN's top decision makers are probably not all functional idiots. The question then arises as to just what their real justification is for keeping him on in his fictitious role as commentator, and de facto role as in-house Trump propagandist, particularly in a time when Trump's credibility as a presidential candidate is diminishing on a daily basis.

4. Not sure how he benefits CNN

he's not sharing insider details from the campaign.

[Major Nikon]

10. Simple. Employing him buys CNN access to the Trump campaign

As his incognito appearance proves, the strategy works.

[underpants]

5. Jeffrey Lord as well.

[DFW]

14. No idea who that is

I don't get American TV and rarely watch CNN when I'm Stateside

[Achilleaze]

6. CNN, Inc. (R) sold out deliberately long ago

CNN, Inc. (R) haz zippo cred. They have sunk to the media cesspool with Fox, Inc. (R).

[Zambero]

7. Getting his talking points briefing directly

Duplicity, what duplicity? Hey, if Hannity can get away with being a blatant Trump campaign adjunct, then why not this guy? He should lose that silly hide-me hood and display a "Lock Her Up!" sign for the cameras! At least he would come across as being "sincere".

[Raster]

9. EVERYONE, and I do mean EVERYONE, associated or previously associated with the tRump...

...campaign, the tRump personae and tRump business ventures have to be confidentially running the numbers and estimating the ***DAMAGE*** association with tRump will cause their careers and their lives.

Even tRump's kids are planning their new hotel ventures without the toxic tRump name.

[calimary]

12. And we need to keep track of ALL of them.

If they try to encourage us to "forget" about this, and about their standing with Trump - I think we need to stand up and keep reminding everybody about it.

I started a thread about it recently.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12512495192

NOT trying just to kick my thread, but I AM trying to build a data base. I'd like to assemble a list of these names. People who endorsed and then backed away, AND THEN caved back in. People who remained steadfast for him. Inside AND outside of politics. There has to be a price to pay for doing so.

It's not because they refused to stand with Hillary, or Gary Johnson, or Bernie, or Jill Stein, or whoever. It's about WHO STOOD WITH TRUMP. There needs to be punishment. There needs to be a price to pay for this. There needs to be accountability.

There should be CONSEQUENCES for having stood with Donald Trump.

No, I take that back.

There MUST be CONSEQUENCES for having stood with Donald Trump.

[Raster]

15. And I just kicked that thread. I stand with you 100%. There need to be consequences...

...for bringing our Republic so perilously close to the edge.

[calimary]

21. Thank you, Raster!

I'm serious. I'm keeping track. I'm going to keep this thread active whenever it's possible and relevant to do so. Which will probably be all the time - because these people refuse to go away, OR to open their eyes and turn their backs on this shit. They are unrepentant and shrewd and calculating.

They're hoping we forget.

They're hoping YOU forget.

So let's be rock-solid sure we DON'T!!!

[Raster]

22. Make no mistake, once HRC wins -and she will, the tRump-inspired hostilities and violence...

...could very well get worse, at least for a time. tRump is already crying foul and screaming electoral thievery even before election day. We still have much ahead of us.

But, when we look back and examine just how we got to this precipice, we MUST make sure we hold the appropriate parties responsible. Already agents and entities have begun to scramble to cover their asses. Case-in-point: CNN has already lamented that perhaps they gave tRump too much fee airtime by covering his Nuremberg rallies in nauseating detail. Already CNN has started to spout their "but we were good Germans" shtick. Already trying to backtrack from their responsibility for helping to create this monster.

Knit, Madame DeFarge, Knit!

[NastyRiffraff]

24. Kicked and posted on that thread

Great idea, Calimary

[Cha]

29. +Millions!

Well deserved Karma

[keithbvadu2]

11. Right wingers whine that the media is for Hillary.

This proves different.

[Adrahil]

13. Will not watch CNN. NT

[47of74]

18. Was it a white hood?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

19. Get cozy with a Trumpster fire - get burned.

[Zambero]

20. Is it just me?

Or does this guy seem like he's on the verge of a nervous breakdown every time he opens his mouth?

[mwooldri]

23. And yet the Trumpies call CNN the Clinton News Network.

Don't know what to think but since it's not the BBC or NPR I'm not outraged. I'm sure Rupert Murdock gets away with a lot more than this

[calimary]

27. When CNN first got started, others in the industry called it Chicken Noodle News.

These days I'd only say it was the Clinton News Network because of the amount of time they spend obsessing on how horrible she is and how many "scandals" she's supposedly drowning in.

[Cha]

28. So sneak corey knew he was wrong and thought he try

to stealth off trump's plane.

How stupid do you have to be to try to make it past REPORTERS?
