During an interview with Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus on Wednesday’s CBS This Morning, co-host Charlie Rose gleefully held up a copy of the Daily News and read the mock obituary on the cover of the left-wing tabloid: “...it says, ‘Republican Party 1854-2016; Dearly beloved, we're gathered here today to mourn the GOP. A once great political party killed by epidemic of Trump.’”
Just in case Priebus couldn’t see the nasty front-page illustration, fellow co-host Gayle King described it in detail: “No, and there's an elephant, Reince, in a coffin, just to make the picture really clear for you.” The hosts laughed as Priebus dismissed the publication: “Well, it’s only fitting of the Daily News.”
