Scott Jennings just flipped the script on Ana Navarro during a heated CNN segment over presidential pardons.
As Navarro attacked Trump for pardoning a January 6th defendant who allegedly threatened Hakeem Jeffries, Jennings fired back with a BRUTAL dose of reality.
NAVARRO: “Donald Trump wanted to make a big splash with pardoning them all with a blanket pardon on his first day. The first thing he signed…If time had been taken to analyze each of them individually, maybe some of these things could have been avoided.”
But
@ScottJenningsKY was standing in the gap.
JENNINGS: “It is a risk when you blanket pardon a group without really looking into the individuals.”
“The same risk applies to Joe Biden who pardoned THOUSANDS of drug criminals without looking into the individual files at the end of his administration.”
“I don’t know how many of them have reoffended. I’m sure if they haven’t, some probably will because of the volume of them, and he’ll be responsible for that.”
Abby Phillip quickly tried to jump in to save the moment:
PHILLIP: “Are you suggesting that because Joe Biden did not personally look into each file, or because it did not go through a process? Because I’m not sure it didn’t go through a process.”
JENNINGS: “I’m saying…it’s pretty well reported that the president himself did not go through each individual case and I’m just saying it’s a risk. When you blanket pardon, it’s a risk.”
