Listen, we understand that the Democrats and the media(but we repeat ourselves) are having a not-so-very-good day. We also understand that they have nothing else to cling to beyond their fevered imaginings that everyone and everything associated with the new Trump administration is somehow a secret code for an impending Nazi regime.
CNN decided to take that hysteria to a new high. Or is it a new low? Either way, take a look:

It was quick. I think our viewers are smart and they can take a look at that, but it certainly was, it's not something that you typically see at American political rallies." Musk: "My heart goes out to you."
We're not sure 'smart' is the right word to use for CNN viewers. Blinded by TDS and anti-Musk hatred enough to pick up what these commentators are putting down? Yes. Smart? Eh, maybe not so much.
Speaking of smart, it's probably not a real great idea for CNN to go after Musk like this in light of the recent defamation judgment against them:
CNN's Erin Burnett and Kasie Hunt omit @elonmusk saying "I'm giving you my heart" after greeting the crowd, failing the "smear @elonmusk as a Nazi without saying Nazi so as to avoid another defamation lawsuit" challenge pic.twitter.com/3Pd0mHO7DE

Can CNN really afford another defamation lawsuit right now?
