CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings was embarrassed as he had his own words used against him on Monday’s (March 23) edition of CNN NewsNight as the panel discussed the Department of Homeland Security shutdown.
Kasie Hunt, who was filling in for regular host Abby Phillip, asked Jennings what it would take to get President Donald Trump “to a point where he’s willing to do what a lot of people in the Republican Senate seem to want him to do?”
