Discussion: Fox News Host: Trump Comments At Press Conference Were 'Disgusting'

Realisticly, that is very doubtful.

One of the big problems that the conservative movement has facing it, is that they have been completely devoid of new policy ideas since the 1980s. Everyone of the 17 republican candidates last year, with maybe a slight exception for Paul, ran on the exact same platform that Reagan ran on in 1980…big tax cuts, big military spending, and anti abortion. When a political movement is that devoid of new ideas, the old ideas become rigid dogma, and the radical fringe elements start to pervert them for their own means in order to infiltrate the power base.

So while republicans may be offended by the notion that their party is the American Nazi party, they still offer up nothing to avert that, no new ideas to replace ideas that have been their stock in trade for 40+ years. In their case, this is made all the worse because they have been practicing tactics…aka the Southern Strategy as one example…for even longer that specifically target these groups to BECOME part of the GOP.

Yes. It’s everyone who won’t stand in front of a statue of Robert E. Lee with folded arms whinging about “heritage”.

Like Trump co-opting the term "fake news: expect to hear “alt-left terrorist” become part of the FOXNews newspeak.

Speak altly and carry a big Nazi flag. The so-called Pr*sident has officially lost his mind by saying in effect Abraham Lincoln was equivalent to the vandals that defaced the Lincoln Memorial. That the Union troops were the same as rebel traitors. That equality for all is just like equality for a select few. That right and wrong are just the same. Holy Mother of Pearl.

The whole world that was laughing at us is gasping in disbelief today. 25 45.

…she couldn’t believe what she had just heard regarding President Donald Trump’s press conference on Tuesday…

Then you haven’t been listening. And you call yourself a News Specialist.

Maybe a GoFundMe effort could be started to erect a statue of Adolph Hitler. Using Trump’s criterion of someone who is beloved by one of “many sides” of the political spectrum.

Perhaps it could be placed in the lobby of Trump Tower?

Well, Fox has to do something to scrabble some of its ratings back from MSNBC.

Kimmel’s comment on Trump plugging his wines,

I have one of the biggest wineries in the US, you should try our wines…especially the white!

looking for a job.

Don’t worry. This disposable Fox B-level “host” will go silent and Fox will push the talking points the White House issued.

Bank on it.

I never heard of alt-left before yesterday. Just what is it?

I don’t disagree with you - but I don’t think it’s hopeless either. Aside from the obvious damage Trump is doing to the GOP, this nightmare is changing the Democrats too. You have a tougher, more idealistic (which is good and bad) and more confrontational party - a party ready to deal with the GOP.

The key to moderation, as always, is to systematically destroy the GOP’s electoral viability, leaving moderation as the only viable path forward. I think you’re seeing the start of that process - spurred on by none other than Trump.

It is a figment of Trump’s fevered imagination. It is a necessity required to fill out the “both sides do it” equation.

And here Rupert spent his own valuable time getting Prez T all softened up, then this, this… lackey goes and shoots off at the mouth. Unforgivable.

False equivocation.

Honestly, I’d never heard the term before a couple of days ago.

The racist right came up with the sanitized term “alt-right” as a way to rebrand themselves as mainstream. Trump is using the term “alt-left” as a way to equate the Nazis with the anti-fascists. This fits in well with Trump’s “many sides” are equally to blame rhetoric.

There is no “alt-left” nor is there any “alt-right”.

Brave FOX FemmeBot will likely be on her way back to Wichita by bus in a few days discussing daily weather reports on the radio. When Murdoch and his SexAbusing Mngt. want her opinion, they’ll give it to her.
