“One of the pillars of our nation.”
Remind your boss of that.
Mr. Carson never answered the questions and Mr. Tapper never called him on it.
Villalon Vincenty Yeah,have you heard any other of this guys interviews? Doesn’t matter how much he’s pressed, he never gives a straight answer. If he does get pressed, he just waffles on & on until the interviewer gets fed up and moves on. Honestly, do a search – he’s just another one of the conservative yes-men, who won’t critisize a thing.
He once said it was unconstitutional to critisize a sitting presidency- even though the constitution gives the American people the right to do so lol
Cuomo wouldn’t let that shot slide
Maybe Tapper was just focused on staying awake. I swear Dr. Carson is a walking cure for insomnia.
@Mark Greenhowe Ben Carson sounds like a man of honor and principle.
This dude needs to be tough like Tucker on Fox when these people come on dodging questions and spewing crap.
How can he be tough if he doesn’t know the answer???
I always thought the same thing, too soft
“I don’t get into demonizing other people”
But I serve a president who does…
@beobe99 we do understsnd but they are never satisfied with anything you do for them
@Tom Rass Thank you.
Carson demonizes poor people for not being exceptional enough to pull themselves up by their bootstraps like he did himself.
@cellonpot well look who you become when you do pull yourself up. At least he ain’t playing victim.

Old Ben, is avoiding the answer.
@boss 630 😉🤣
Genevieve i have an 9 inch when hard is like a can of coke in girth.
think about it!!!
hey! That’s our Uncle Tom!
Ben answer all of question wizely.
Ben handles CNN the same way I would. I don’t play games with racist people. CNN is racist. They do nothing to unite Americans so why should they deserve a answer.
That was a wasted interview. Dodged every damn question. Smdh
Because Tapper is an idiot and Dr. Carson can run intellectual circles around him. He was never going to fall for the set up – it was so obvious what Tapper was trying to do, and since he didn’t have any good comebacks, the cycle was: awkward pause, breathe, agree with Dr. Carson, and next question…
More like CNN is a wasted news station
The idea of kneeling came from a veteran, Ben has no backbone.
The idea of the OKC bombing did too
@Pat Jenkins
Sooo you’re comparing a bombing that claimed lives to a peaceful protest that you can easily ignore by pressing a button or looking away,….sure I get it
We all no they so afraid of yellow man
I agret with u.
He said he has no problem with NFL players kneeling for social injustice as long as it is understood that they love their country and respect those that have served their country. What’s wrong with that answer? I agree 100 percent with that.
When ur kneeling ask for forgivness
Tapper gets a D for this interview. His inability hold Ben to the questions is amateurish
I agree that it would mean a lot to me to have him hold a better interview… but I also think that for every intelligent viewer they can see the dodge and lies and Tapper’s non-verbal incredulous responses for what they are. 🤷🏽♀️
tapper is a stooge; Carson is fucking clueless. basically “good people on both sides”
Probably realized this was a mandatory bot worth an argument. But Carson is such a sad sap that this the energy he always brings.
He should have but I think he was trying to appear “neutral”.
The kid that’s told “tell them I’m not here” when he answers the phone for mom!
He really is one of the dumbest, most pathetic people in our government. It’s wild he used to operate on people’s brains. Jesus Christ.
Ben Carson has to be brainwashed. Cannot speak up about his boss. Another spineless republican!
Irving Martin if he is thinking for himself then he is just wrong and uninformed
@Irving Martin and you are a sheep from the red team t and all of us together are CASH COWS OF THE SAME SYSTEM THE RED AND BLUE TEAM WORK FOR sounds more accurated righ ?
He loves his job and the pay…what do you expect working for Satan
Ben Carson is completely self aware of the absurd bad faith excrement that’s coming out of his mouth. He is a selfserving parasite sycophant grifter without shame or guilt who is oppurtunisticly helping a fascistic takeover of the United States Democracy. O…O..Oreo? My luggage My luggage!
Spineless like the liers Pelosi, Shummet, Nadler, Schiff , who wasted millions of social security, have fun working till your 80yrs old to survive. This is your wonderful democrats for you.
Waste of time interviewing him, you should have just put a mannequin in the seat and run ‘no comment’ as every answer for all the good this ‘conversation‘ did.
Why is Carson being interviewed…he is a liar.
You sound like a racist!
His answers divert and slide here and there. Slimy.
my name is Ben ,,,,,,,i m a brain surgeon I do brain surgery on those who have NO brain or a DECOMPOSED brain
Assistant: Doc, there’s a call from one Donald Trumpf asking for an appointment, he says it is Urgent !
He didn’t answer a single question
Dis guy did not answer any of the questions, he doesn’t wanna get fired
On July 7, 2016, Micah Xavier Johnson ambushed and FIRED UPON A GROUP OF POLICE OFFICERS in Dallas, Texas, killing five officers and injuring nine others. We are tired of this liberal crap that thinks violence only goes in one place…. OH AND HE WAS BLACK….https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPf4B7z7uAU
Q: “What do you think?”
A: I don’t have an opinion.
“What do you think” was really a ploy to get him to say nasty things to then have follow-up show talking about all the nasty things he said against the Trump administration. Duh… not going to happen, the man is not interested in useless drama and helping CNN make money.
@Rebecca You notice how upset liberals get when they don’t get there gossip and slander.
“If only they had explained why they were kneeling” at the end there, is just mind-boggling. Why did no one think to mention it was about injustice? The cognitive dissonance is strong in this one.
This is what Dr Cornel West means when he says “black faces in high places” isn’t generally helpful with fixing systemic racism.
What doesn’t fix system racism is the fact that you buy it and think the white supremacy is real…. it’s not that’s something that white liberals tell you to keep you down. You can do and be anything that you want. This isn’t the 1950s. Y’all youngsters have it way better than anyone yet this whole racism thing has become just and excuse for people who don’t wanna do anything. I half black and I think it’s really weird that my generation had it good. Blacks and whites got along for the most part and blacks weren’t going around crying and asking to be coddled. I’m so embarrassed by all the white guilt and condescending coddling I hear when I turn on the tv. I’m not oppressed because I choose not to be and more people need that attitude and stop worry about the white man and what he got. Get your money together and make something of yourself and stop worrying about systemic racism. It’s a bunch of bs.
CORNEY WEST IS MARRIED TO A WHITE WOMAN!! HIS NAME DOESN’T NEED TO BE METIONED!
There is no systemic racism in the United States.
How RUDE!!!
Jake should’ve at least waited until Dr. Carson was fully AWAKE!!! 😂😂😂
