Here’s CNN’s Jake Tapper Quoting the ‘Immortal Words’ of Taylor Swift to Talk Cohen-Trump
In a blink and you might miss it moment on Friday’s The Lead, CNN’s Jake Tapper quoted Taylor Swift to discuss politics, or the Trump world’s most newshogging saga du jour to be more exact.
Here is what he said: “In the immortal words of Taylor Swift, ‘now we’ve got bad blood, we used to be mad love.’”
Tapper was referring to the love turned to hate relationship between former Trump fixer and confidante Michael Cohen and Trump himself.
Earlier in the week, CNN aired a tape of Cohen and Trump talking about the Karen McDougal hush money deal.
Then on Thursday, another bombshell dropped when CNN broke the news that Cohen is now claiming Trump knew about the infamous Trump Tower meeting.
Trump responded, as he often does, in a Twitter slam of Cohen, his one-time fixer friend:
Arrived back in Washington last night from a very emotional reopening of a major U.S. Steel plant in Granite City, Illinois, only to be greeted with the ridiculous news that the highly conflicted Robert Mueller and his gang of 13 Angry Democrats obviously cannot find Collusion…

….,the only Collusion with Russia was with the Democrats, so now they are looking at my Tweets (along with 53 million other people) – the rigged Witch Hunt continues! How stupid and unfair to our Country….And so the Fake News doesn’t waste my time with dumb questions, NO,….

…..I did NOT know of the meeting with my son, Don jr. Sounds to me like someone is trying to make up stories in order to get himself out of an unrelated jam (Taxi cabs maybe?). He even retained Bill and Crooked Hillary’s lawyer. Gee, I wonder if they helped him make the choice!

Bad blood, indeed.
