Following a joint statement on Thursday from Senate Intelligence Committee leaders refuting President Trump’s claim about being wiretapped by his predecessor, CNN’s Wolf Blitzer and David Chalian could barely contain their glee, heralding the “clear rebuke” of the “third grader” in Trump who, they claim, could put the issue to rest if he apologized to Barack Obama.

The reality is, however, that the media would not simply move on if Trump apologized or retracted his tweets. Why? It’s how the media and liberals work. They demand something from their opponents and when they get it, they move the goal posts.
