CNN's Latest "Star"- Andrew Gillum

Always count on CNN to add to its stable of questionable characters as analysts and commentators. Just in recent weeks, LA ambulance chasing attorney Michael Avenatti suddenly disappeared from the CNN screen after he was charged with beating up his girlfriend. In addition, the "Most Trusted Name in News" cut ties with Marc Lamont Hill after his speech at the UN that excused Palestinian violence and repeated that cute little ditty about "from the river to the sea", which explicitly calls for the destruction of Israel.

But as any baseball team will tell you, every team needs a deep bullpen, so CNN went out and signed free agent Andrew Gillum, the former mayor of Tallahassee and recently defeated in a bid for the Florida governorship. CNN will need a quick hook, as they say in pitching, because Gillum is under investigation all over the place for corruption and ethics charges.

I can just see Gillum sitting there with Wolf Blitzer, Jeffrey Toobin, Gloria Borger, and all the rest analyzing the case against Roger Stone and whether this is the end for Trump. This should really be rich.

In all likelihood, Gillum will suddenly disappear from the CNN studio when and if that hammer drops on him. Better keep another arm warmed up in the bullpen.
