'Don't say that!' Mike Johnson flips out on CNN's Tapper over Trump's vulgar rally story

An attempt by CNN's Jake Tapper to get a reaction from House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Donald Trump's vulgar storytelling at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday was first met with bluster and then anger on Sunday morning.

Johnson was booked for "State of the Union" long before Trump spent over ten minutes regaling his rally crowd with a story about golfer Arnold Palmer's genitalia.

Confronted with Trump's vulgar story, Johnson instead spent his time attacking Vice President Kamala Harris until Tapper brought him back by asking about the appropriateness of Trump talking about the golfer's penis.

'I am actually stunned': MSNBC host rips into the 'most disturbing' part of Trump rally

Reacting to a clip of Donald Trump regaling a Pennsylvania crowd with a story about legendary golfer Arnold Palmer's genitalia to kick off a rally on Saturday, a fuming Michael Steele expressed his disgust with not only the former president but also the rally attendees who were eating up his vulgar tale.

On MSNBC's "The Weekend" the entire panel looked on in dismay as the clip ran and it was co-host and former RNC chair Michael Steele who put into words what they all seemed to be thinking.

Momentarily at a loss for words, he finally admitted, "I'm actually stunned that this is what our country is doing right now."

He then continued, "You have the Republican nominee for the presidency of the United States standing on stage at a rally, not talking about the economy, not talking about creating jobs for the next generation, not talking about providing health care or even dealing with the intractable issues around climate. No – talking about a man's genitalia."

"But this is the part that is the most disturbing," he elaborated. "The people behind him who are laughing and yucking it up and thinking that is good political discourse and that is what the next president of the United States should spend his time talking about."

"They weren't offended, they were amused," he accused. "And that's the rub with Donald Trump. It's all about the amusements, all about the entertainment and yucking it up and dumbing you down enough to be stupid enough to buy into these narratives about other people, about our country, and about another man's genitalia."

Alec Baldwin returns to SNL to roast Fox News' Bret Baier for badgering Harris

Saturday Night Live kicked off the last episode before going on hiatus until the last weekend before the election with a surprise appearance of Alec Baldwin portraying Bret Baier of Fox News who caused a ruckus this week with his hectoring of Vice President Kamala Harris in an interview.

With Baldwin's Baier admitting he looks like a "businessman made in Minecraft," he began aggressively peppering Harris, played by Maya Rudolph, with inflammatory questions about immigrant "murderers," interrupting her repeatedly after only a few words or so.

"Bret, I'm glad you up the topic of immigration..." Harris began.

"A million, two million?' he interrupted.

"Okay, the first thing we did in office was to introduce a bill..." Harris attempted only to have him interject, "Ten million? Give me a number."

"That was followed with a rapid fire, "May I please finish?"

"I'm asking you to."

"Then you have to listen."

"Well I can't because I'm talking."

"When will you stop?"

"Maybe when I go to bed," Baldwin's Baier smirked.

In another exchange, he attempted to get her to criticize Trump's MAGA supporters by providing a litany of slurs, telling her, "So, you're telling me Trump voters are misguided – are they stupid? Are they idiots who can't think for themselves? Morons, slack-jaws, stump-humpers, cross-eyed meatheads?"

"Bret, you're trying real hard to make me say something bad," she protested.

"But they are at least fat, right? Some of them are very fat," he offered.

"Bret, lets move on," Rudolph's Harris suggested.

"So you're not denying that they're fat?" he attempted once more to which she replied, "Oh my dear god!"

"You're very sexy when you're angry, you know that?" he replied.

"Yes, I do," she shot back.

Donald Trump's former White House advisers worry that, if he's elected again, he could misuse a dangerous "doomsday book" to hurt his personal enemies and enhance his own power, an expert said Saturday.
