Episode 824: Jake Tapper's Haitian Danger Hypocrisy
About this episode
The episode discusses Jake Tapper's contradictory statements about Haiti over the years, particularly in relation to President Trump's comments and a Conan O’Brien special.
In 2018, after President Trump suggested Haiti was a terrible place, Jake Tapper gave a softball interview to comedian Conan O’Brien, who made a special for TBS mocking Trump by going to Haiti and telling everyone what a beautiful place it was. Now in 2026, Tapper lectured that Haiti is a very dangerous place, so you shouldn't send Haitians back home.
