Ex-Trump staffer out at CNN amid "false and defamatory accusations"

Source: The Hill

CNN political commentator Jason Miller, a former aide to President Trump, announced Saturday that he will be leaving the network amid his ongoing child custody dispute with A.J. Delgado.

A.J. Delgado, a former Trump campaign senior adviser whose affair with then-co-worker Miller produced a child, alleged in court documents obtained by Splinter that Miller had another affair with a woman he met in a strip club.

Court documents claimed once Miller learned the unknown woman was pregnant, he slipped her an abortion pill without her knowledge, which allegedly led to the termination of the pregnancy.

With the addition of these allegations to court records, Delgado is reportedly asking the court to order Miller to undergo a psychological evaluation.

Remember Paris Dennard, a former surrogate for Trump? He is mentioned at the end of the article:

The news comes less than a month after CNN announced it was suspending a pro-Trump commentator and former surrogate for President Trump's campaign, Paris Dennard, after it was revealed he was fired from Arizona State University (ASU) four years ago for alleged sexual misconduct.

Trump is a magnet for every corrupt degenerate person out there.

I don't think I was ever surprised by anything he said. He always towed the GOP party line and defended Spanky at the expense of the truth.

Why the hell did CNN keep him when he was a Trump aide? In the middle of trying to cover the massive White House scandals, he’s an odd choice to have on the media payroll.

Every time I saw him, I thought his head looked like a balloon with too much air, as if his head was about to pop. Especially when he'd get all indignant with some one speaking truth to his BS lies in defense of Stumpy the Mushroom.

but every time I saw that creep on CNN defending #45, I knew something wasn't right about him. I knew it but I couldn't put my finger on it.

It's unsettling to get creepped out about these guys and then find out that my gut was right.

I feared the worst out of this crowd, and they, and all of their vile transgressions against the Constitution, against our citizens, against our nation's security, and against common human decency, have proved even worse than my worst fears. You're right: they're every bit as repugnant as they seem on TV.

Looking at Miller's list of clients in his Wikipedia bio is like visiting the rap sheet for the worst of the Republican party: Issa, Cruz, Trump, and much more.

Not to mention the fun fact that he's been married as he's carried on with his multiple affairs, and that Delgado's child was born only 6 months after his second child with his wife.

Yup, those Republican family values.

First that insufferable Paris Dennard and now that gasbag of shit Jason Miller. If the frothy mix would just resign in protest that would be a hella trifecta.
