S.E. Cupp... Wow! Holy Crap!

On CNN just now.. I think it was Wolf who asked her...

"In your opinion why does the F.B.I rank and file not stand up to the manner in which Trump is treating them as a whole"?

S.E. Cupp responded by saying straight out.. "Trump has Emasculated the F.B.I"!!! My God, if I was one of those guys.. I would state to my fellow Agents around me.. "It's time that we go to war on that piece of shit"!


I mean these guys are supposedly tough as nails.. Meanwhile S.E. Cupp, young and beautiful just stated this/

Love it!..

One thing more... The word might have been" castrated!"

Yea.. I know all about Cupp.. But a port in any storm.!

I'd bet the FBI rank and file are too dependent on their paycheck to walkout. That's sad. Hoyt Nov 2018 #1

was not appropriate. I had never thought about it. They are, of course, correct.

Once you're aware of it, you start recognizing how often people say it.

I noticed one day that people say, "He's smart." Then they say, "She's a smart woman" or that's one smart lady" without ever realizing how insulting that is to women.

Is she still calling herself a Repub?

I also think .. You know, being an FBI agent is a big deal and it deserves to be.. Part of it is the Tough guy image... Which is true! IMO .. But when a very young attractive female T.V. Personality states that Trump has" emasculated the F.B. I" I'm sure that won't sit with them well.
