CNN: If Trump Is Killed During Inauguration, Obama Appointee Would Be President (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 
CNN has been criticized for airing a report which revealed that an Obama appointee would become president if Donald Trump was killed during an attack on the inauguration tomorrow.

Entitled Disaster could put Obama cabinet member in Oval Office, the report admits that there is no specific threat targeting the inauguration, but goes on to speculate about “who would be in charge if an attack hit the incoming president….just as the transfer of power is underway”.

An individual named the “designated presidential successor” will not attend the inauguration as a security precaution, “but it won’t be a Trump cabinet secretary….it will be an Obama appointee,” reports CNN.

The report emphasizes that “a president from the prior administration” will take power if there is an attack due to the fact that none of Trump’s cabinet secretaries have been confirmed yet.

According to CNN, the designated presidential successor is likely to be Tom Shannon, the Under Secretary For Political Affairs, and an Obama appointee.

The report teases the potential for an attack on the inauguration by asserting it would create “chaos” and “high theater,” before airing clips from ABC’s Designated Survivor show in which Kiefer Sutherland plays an obscure cabinet secretary who is “unexpectedly thrust into the presidency after an attack at the capitol during a State of the Union address.”

Given the huge number of death threats leveled at Trump – including one family friend of Hillary Clinton who was arrested after he threatened to assassinate Trump at the inauguration – is CNN irresponsible in drawing attention to this issue?

Respondents to the video on YouTube, which was heavily thumbed down, slammed CNN for almost encouraging a violent attack against Trump.

“Totally not suggesting anything here, huh CNN?” commented one.

“So leftist terrorists know who they need to take out, so that dems can stay in power? This is irresponsible journalism,” added another.

“I flagged this video as dangerous to the president elect, and that it might foment violence,” wrote another.

The charges are not without precedent. After Thomas DiMassimo tried to rush the stage to violently confront Trump during an event in Ohio last year, CNN gave him a platform to denounce Trump as a “bully”.

      No it wouldnt. It would be the Speaker of the House. A President doesnt get to choose a successor. Ever

      • Equalizer

        Libtardism” is a mental illness. One can only hope if there is a drone strike during the inauguration it is a direct hit on O-Vomit, Hitlery, Bill and Nancy Pelosi. Drain the swamp.

          The Joker the sane one in this the asylum?

      • Real Expert

        Exactly, and if Congress has to, it appoints the interim President. These fake news
        sites like CNN throw out false hope for their cupcake libtard viewers to eat like
        candy, and the fools believe them! Congress appoints the interim President,
        not the outgoing president. But in the librard fantasy world..lmao..

    • F16Hoser

      We need to “Kill-Off” CNN. No wait, Trump is doing that now. :lol:

    • LADYBRADY

      This is appalling! CNN, you know, we tolerate your commie ways…but I have seen multiple examples of what I would call Subversion. And I disconnected my Satellite 19 months ago, and haven’t watched but ONE entire news cast in 6 years! That takes talent for someone such as for me to be able catch that much evidence, when I don’t watch it.

      Who is CNNs Successor? I’m sick of news orgs picking sides…if you are unable to report honestly and fairly, reporting both sides..you do not need to be in that business.

    • Ideas Time

      I am sure everyone will be on super high alert tomorrow including all the guests who want Trump to be kept safe.

    • ItinerantPreacher

      This is fake news at it most blatant. Even CNN blowhards know this isn’t true. One of the things that distinguishes the US from other countries is the fact that there is a very clear line of succession and any deviation from that is a coup.

    • Detergent

      This is WRONG. Somebody, please read the Constitution. See Amendment 20, Section 3.

      “3: If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President. If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.”

    • coolsaint

      If Trump is ass it will mean civil war …..

    • wiseoldlady

      Agree with commenters. I am concerned about the purchased tickets of those allegedly not attending and have not returned their tickets. Do they have a plot to give those tickets to rioters or assassinators????????????????????

      • wiseoldlady

        Another thought…because I don’t know the procedure as I have never attended an inauguration (with the choices in my adult life who would want to go until now). But if the tickets are numbered and designation of seating /mall/ locations specified on tickets….do they record the ticket number and name etc. when tickets are purchased….then backcheck said info upon entrance???????????? In the Trump interview video he stated those not attending have not returned their tickets….. So what is up with that!!!!!!!!!!!

    • Tedx

      Watch for a nuke blamed on Russia.

    • desertspeaks

      it doesn’t work that way.. ovomit cannot appoint anyone to the presidency! are you this stupid in person?

    • OBSERVER

      TEST

    • OBSERVER

      If he dies, he dies on 0bama’s watch, his security negligence would be responsible and that would be in effect a civil suit liability and a national security negligence for failing to take proper precautions a the inauguration, failing to have the Atty General arrest those who threatened assassination on Trump, such a failure should be met with impeachment where the failure was a knowledgeable purposeful lapse and equitable to culpability therefore.

    • Anonymous

      wow.. generated a lot of confusion here, Jeffery.

      Maybe point out the fact that the video is addressing a situation where All the top dogs are eliminated.. who then is the proper successor? That answer is given and no, it is NOT wrong.
      Also, “the Obama appointee” does not refer to someone whom Obama chooses to be president, haha.. (remember, he too is dead in this scenario).. it is someone who was an appointee during obamas administration.

    • DISPENSER

      If President Trump is assassinated, the MSM will have targets on their backs, along with most of Hollywood, and leftist politicians, and supporters. They think angry snowflakes are dangerous? CNN is like a retarded kid, playing with a loaded weapon.

    • Judge Roy Bean

      An Obama appointee would not fly, war would begin.

    • Josie

      Trump should have been sworn in in the presidential office and televised instead of taking such unnecessary chances. Nothing is foolproof especially when Hillary is in the audience hoping he gets shot. The evil ones are in her pocket, she has no soul. Trump is a mans man, I know, but we need him, he is our last life line. Pray the Lord continues to protect him…

    • El

      Wrong, there would be a civil war like no one has ever seen before and the Obama clone would lose!

    • coveredlikeatent

      Not TRUE he can be sworn in anytime after his conformation the thing on Friday is a ceremony only. So CNN can go suck eggs FAKE NEWS!!!!! As long as it is done before 12 on the 20th and it’s my guess he has already done it. O had to do his twice did it on the karan the 2nd time around. Messed up during the ceremony with the Bible probably on purpose.

    • jdpent01

      jdp…NO, MIKE PENCE IS SWORN IN BEFORE TRUMP SO HE WOULD TAKE OVER.

    • apache5

      CNN, (clinton news network) what a libtard infested company, they should be fined for creating a potential threat to the new President!!

    • jdpent01

      JDP…CNN IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS AS ITS BUSINESS LICENSE IS BEING PULLED BY DEPT OF COMMERCE FOR INCITING RIOTS AND MJURDER, PLAYING A POLITICAL SIDE, BUT SHOULD BE NEUTRAL POLITICALLY.

    • jdpent01

    • IAMPEACE

      Friday is a day of a beginning. A start of healing. A day of hope. IF, if the evil stops the Christian foundation
      for which Trump, Bless him, is trying to help us all, then I shall have been forewarned : my life, my hopes shall henceforth be guarded. Bless Before Its news. My dad, mother, and brother all gone now so loved this country and they would have wanted me to speak the truth. ARMY, AIRFORCE .

      • Andy

        semper fli?

    • pohknee

      What a croc story. Do you know why they do the swearing in of the Vice president first?? And should he be taken out it falls onto the Speaker of the House to designate an interim. Obama appoints nobody. He is Kaput!

    • Anonymous

      I hope and pray that crazy mothalova’ is killed.

    • charlie2dogs

      fuk cnn for even putting this shit out

    • coveredlikeatent

      This is a lie from the pit there Jeff sorry but you need to do some research bud! Trump in my estimation has already taken the oath this can be done anytime after conformation so join the lamestream and spew it this is definitely FAKE NEWS guess you have joined their club!

      • Jeffery Pritchett

        This is an article from INFOWARS DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH It is about what CNN did talking crap about do you read anything?

    • Big dog.../small fish...

      DID IT HAPPEN NOOOOO. FUCKING IDIOTS

    • Boo

      Isn’t there some FCC ruling against promoting assassination of anyone through suggestive programming? CNN seems to be straddling a fine line here. Maybe it’s time to take their anchor’s off the air until they can deal with their communist programming issues more constructively. I get it … CNN is the communist arm of media on television, but geeze shouldn’t they have some common sense restraints when they go about promoting their communistic messages?
