Breitbart: CNN’s Jake Tapper was criticized on social media Monday morning after Tapper suggested in an interview this weekend with new White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci that he had a working class upbringing.
Tapper casually drew a link between Scaramucci’s modest upbringing, which took place in a blue-collar neighborhood in Long Island, to his own. Tapper, who attended an expensive private high school in Philadelphia, claimed that he grew up in a similar type of working class neighborhood.
“I grew up in a middle-class family, where we had a tight budget,” Scaramucci said in the interview. “I’ve seen people come up to the President that are now struggling. And I’ll say something to you on national TV that is embarrassing to me. I should have seen the economic desperation in the neighborhoods I grew up in.”
“I grew up in a very similar neighborhood in Philadelphia,” Tapper replied. more
Cut the guy some slack, I’m sure his butler was a middle class guy, and then there’s that guy that drove him to the private school, and don’t forget the chef.
Uh oh, sounds like Tapper the Rapper wants to fit in with the cool kids, now. lol
Leftists live in a total fantasy world of their own creation. They believe they can impulsively blurt out the most outrageous ludicrous lies, and be totally believed.
We see it constantly. Tapper could as easily have said to Ben Carson “I too was born a poor black child”.
Leftists are chameleons, but usually poor actors. Hilary and Obama are classics with the fake regional/ethnic accents they strain to adopt for various audiences.
Tapper wouldn’t last long in Scaranucci’s old neighborhood.

Whatever portion of their history is hard-scrabble, no matter how rich they are now, is recalled with a banjo and straw hat.
Even if they have to recall family members who were lower class, “I remember my grandmother hauling water out of the crick 7 miles away just to wash her vagina…….(sobs) life is not fair!–why God whyyyyy!”
CNN’s Jake Trapper. Fake news, enough said.
Jake Tapper. Just another useless fucking Shoobie.
People who actually grew up in poverty and faced the humiliation, disappointments and heartache rarely, if at all, talk about growing up impoverished. It is not a badge of honor, but mostly associated with shame.
The poor kid had to ride bareback on his polo team.
I’m from a lower middle class background in Philadelphia. Bryn Mawr is and always was exclusive upper class. It is NOT Philadelphia – in fact you have to go through several suburbs of Philadelphia to get there.
Real news about fake history from a faker whose name rhymes with Fake Fapper.
