Obama Blames Democrat Losses on 'Fox News in Every Bar and Restaurant'
newsbusters ^ | 11/30/2016 | Tim Graham

Mediaite pulled out the funniest part of Barack Obama’s latest softball interview with Rolling Stone publisher Jann Wenner. When asked about Donald Trump’s victory, he blamed part of it on “Fox News in every bar and restaurant in big chunks of the country.”

Let’s not wait for PolitiFact to judge whether Fox News is actually on the TV set in every bar and restaurant in the red states. (They won’t.) Conservatives on Twitter quickly made several apt points:

LOL! These fools can’t face up to the fact that their policies stink, and people figured it out, despite the incessant Dem drumbeat from the predominant establishment media.

The only thing keeping CNN afloat is that all public buildings, airports, etc. apparently are required to have CNN as their only news channel on TV screens.

Bar patrons usually get the channels they want.... And nobody wants to watch CNN, CNBC and other liberal/leftist agenda oriented news stations. They prefer conservative news, or local news (which tends to to be more moderate or conservative).

Stations espousing a dripping left wing attitude are boring, and more importantly annoying with their politically correct trash.

If he believes that he misses the main point.

the “Why” of it.

Democrats just cannot come to terms with the fact that there are a lot of people they haven’t been able to brainwash yet.

Someone needs to inform Obama that MOST bars & restaurants have CNN all the time, as do all airports......DUH!!!

Libs live in their own little world of a false reality.....like Reagan said, “It’s just that so much of what they believe JUST ISN’T TRUE!”

Shows how out of tough the a$$ is . . . everywhere I go, airports, restaurants, etc., all seem to have CNN. I have to ask them to put on FOX, and they usually growl at me.

So, I don’t know where this total a$$ is coming from.

Lame Duck L’Orange is delusion. I travel a lot and the primary news channel I find in bars and restaurants is CNN, not FoxNews.

The Democrats know their policies reek, but can’t admit it. The only thing that will destroy that party is for a significant number of their brain dead zombies to wake up and leave it in droves.

This contrived assertion sums up all that is wrong with this a—hole.

We tried a new Chinese restaurant, that just opened up near home. They asked how we liked everything and we said “We’ll be back, if you promise to NOT have CNN on, from now on”.

I guess 0blama doesn’t get out into the real world, much...like airports, etc...where all you see is CNN.

Why watch depressing news from ugly newsreaders?

Even if the news isn’t any better, the “optics” are at Fox News. Besides, most bars have the sound off unless it’s the “big game”.

Yeah, because Megyn Kelly is so into Trump.

Megyn has run off the rails.

She brings people on the show so she can attack them.

It won't be long before she springs out of her leg chair and physically attacks someone on camera.
