CNN White House Correspondent John Harwood, who is leaving the network due to the purging of far-left hacks bringing the network down, used his last appearance on the network to ram into President Trump one last time.

Mediaite reports:

Appearing with CNN’s Jim Sciutto, Harwood made the point crystal clear that he fully backs Biden’s speech this week targeting extremist Republicans threatening democracy and claimed it’s “not easy” for many journalists to admit.

“Of course it was a political speech. We’re in a midterm reelection year,” Harwood said after Sciutto noted that even some in Biden’s own party thought the speech went too far. “The issues that he’s talking about are inherently political, but I think it’s also important to say the core point he made in that political speech about a threat to democracy is true. Now that’s something that’s not easy for us, as journalists, to say.”

Harwood pushed his criticism even further, calling Trump a “dishonest demagogue.”

The correspondent claimed, “We’re brought up to believe there’s two different political parties with different points of view and we don’t take sides in honest disagreements between them. But that’s not what we’re talking about. These are not honest disagreements. The Republican Party right now is led by a dishonest demagogue. Many, many Republicans are rallying behind his lies about the 2020 election and other things as well.”
