[See NewsBusters for more.] Appearing on CBS This Morning, former RNC Chair Reince Priebus excoriated co-host Tony Dokoupil for his “ridiculous” connection of riots in Wisconsin to proof that the Republican Party is “giving up on “broadening” its appeal. Determined to not sit back and take the liberal narrative, the former White House Chief of Staff accused CBS of “dismissing the fear that people have in this country of wild violence.” Dokoupil began by offering this linkage: “You're a Kenosha native and not too long ago you were calling for the renewal of the Republican Party by broadening the base, reaching out to minority voters.” He continued, “The President yesterday seemed committed to a very different strategy. He only visited sites of destruction. He praised law enforcement. He did not acknowledge systemic racism. Has he given up on trying to broaden his appeal?”
