Jake Tapper Rips Into Trump For Repeating “Delusional And Untethered” Claims About Clintons [VIDEO]

Jake Tapper really went after Donald Trump this afternoon:

“Once again, journalists are in the unhappy predicament of trying to decide whether and how to cover false allegations raised by a candidate for president of the United States,” Tapper said at the start his show “The Lead.”

“The notion that this was a murder is a fiction born of delusion and untethered to reality and contradicted by evidence reviewed in at least six investigations, one of them by Ken Starr, hardly a Bill Clinton defender,” Tapper said during the segment.

“To say otherwise is ridiculous, and, frankly, shameful,” Tapper continued, reiterating that his scrutiny of Trump’s comments wasn’t “pro-Clinton” or “anti-Trump,” but a “pro-truth position.”
