Doubling down on a recent podcast where she excoriated MAGA influencers who are reveling in the attention given to them for turning on Donald Trump, longtime conservative commentator S.E. Cupp pointed out that she got death threats for opposing the president after he took office in 2016 so they get no grace from her.
During an appearance on CNN’s “Table for Five,“ Cupp launched into an extensive rant aimed at newly minted Trump critics like Megyn Kelly and ex-Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), accusing them of “buyer’s remorse.”
“I have been out in these streets since 2015 opposing this un-American, anti-democratic, fascistic garbage,” she began. “And while at the same time, these people that they’re mentioning, the Marjorie Taylor Greene’s, that name them, the long list have been defending it [MAGA] for fun, for money, for clicks, for fame.”
Adding “Not all converts are the same,” she continued, “It’s not just for Democrats to decide [acceptance]. It’s for never-Trumpers who are conservative as well, to decide we should not be aligning with people who are losers, liars and grifters who have only come to see the light, because either it’s politically expedient or it’s profitable or whatever.”
“For the professional liars, losers and grifters? No, we don’t want you!” she exclaimed. “And just because you’ve come to where we have been for ten years, doesn’t mean you get to use us to launder your reputations — not happening on my watch. And I don’t like this conversation where it’s like, ‘well, shouldn’t we give them credit?’ No, no, no credit, no credit. It’s the 11th hour. It’s the 11th hour of this and he is a lame duck. He has gone in two years, what took you so long?”
“This is personal,” she admitted. “I’ve gotten death threats. I have lived this life at the expense of my profession, the expense of friendships, at the expense of money. I’ve done it. It’s been hard, but it’s my conscience telling me to do it. You don’t get to flip a switch and say I don’t like him anymore.”
