Shepard Smith attacks Trump, auditions for CNN
American Thinker ^ | February 18, 2017 | J. Marsolo

Posted on 02/18/2017 6:14:33 AM PST by NYer

Shepard Smith, a Fox News anchor, whose job is to report the news, instead went off, unhinged, attacking President Trump because Trump criticized CNN reporter Jim Acosta.  Evidently, the news media boys believe they can attack Trump, but when Trump responds, then it is an attack on the First Amendment.  They cannot handle being criticized.

Smith said:

It's crazy what we're watching every day.  It's absolutely crazy.  He keeps repeating ridiculous throwaway lines that are not true at all and sort of avoiding this issue of Russia as [if] we're some kind of fools for asking a question.  Really?  Your opposition was hacked, and the Russians were responsible for it, and your people were on the phone with Russia on the same day it was happening, and we're fools for asking the questions?

Evidently, Smith does not understand or care that WikiLeaks released emails from John Podesta that document that Hillary sold access to the State Department and that Obama knew that Hillary Clinton was using an unsecure email server.  FBI director James Comey said Hillary's emails were subject to hacking by hostile foreign actors – meaning foreign countries, not actors like the Hollywood lefties.

snip

Smith obviously does not like Trump.  Smith and the mainstream media do not care that the U.S. intelligence agencies leaked the General Flynn conversation with the Russian ambassador.  This is a good leak.  Smith and the MSM believe that it is news to leak classified information if it damages Trump, but to reveal the truth about Hillary is a bad leak.

Fox also has supposed conservatives, such as former Bush press secretary Dana Perino and former Walter Mondale speechwriter Charles Krauthammer, who cannot resist taking shots at Trump.

Sheep and Maria Hart are Liberal Red Meat for leftist viewers - take it with a grain of salt for once in while those enemy viewers are subjected to well reasoned opposition to their viewpoints.

Same here!
And while I cannot stand Shempf, I appreciate the generally positive coverage Trump receives on Fox-—since the election.

And though it comes on waaaay too early here on the left coast, when I do catch Fox and Friends I LOVE how Steve Doucy and Brian Kilmeade are soooo pro Trump!
And before the election, my favorite show was the one on Sundays hosted by Harris Faulkner, which featured the three “political insiders”. While they were clearly “political”, they also clearly cared about the future of this country, and even Doug Schoen finally had to admit he could no longer support HRC.
THAT was an amazing moment, and watching it live on Harris’ show gave me a real sense of hope that Trump might win over enough “old school” Democrats to win the election.
And I so thank God that he did!!!

Shep may be taking an “attitude adjustment day”. It is certainly overdue.

But he would have to take a LOT of days if the objective is to actually get a reset to his thinking. He has gotten pretty doctrinaire of late.

Trump won. The Republicans hold a majority in the House and (just barely) in the Senate, Democrats are on the decline most everywhere.

The uber leftist sodomite Smith started crying on his show when his hero Bathouse Barry was reelected in 2012. The worthless sawed-off POS never misses a change to badmouth the president or any other republican. He’s Don Lemon with a tan. Fox should be boycotted until this creep is fired.

He is Gay

He's not "gay"...he's perpetually angry, petty, shrill, childish and underhanded. Just another stompy-foot democRAT.

He is, however, queer as a three dollar bill, and probably a frequent-flyer at Comet Pizza.

Huh? Nobody on Fox directly takes on the leftists better or more frequently than Tucker. I’d say he’s more “ballsy” and “self-assured” than “hysterical” or “whiny.”

It’s not about opposing Trump “policies”.

It’s all about creating “hatred” of Trump. Make up your own reasons... or don’t. Reasons optional.

This is great for ignorant intellectual fools like Shemp and the great unwashed. They don’t need to “know” anything (policies, actions, positions, beliefs, etc.) because just “hating” is enough. It is the goal.

Boycott Fox News. Watch Fox Business, especially Lew Dobbs. He’s a diehard Trump supporter.

Good. Let him go. I’m sure he’ll be as popular as what’s her name is now.

Shep Smith is a GAY political hack who can not get away from his own sexuality.

Nobody cares.

He is a gay activist

The activist part we care about.

Save your private moments for your private life, where there are people who like having it shoved down their throats...

Hope little shep doesn’t get arrested for fighting over a parking spot down in Atlanta like he did in Florida in 2000.

Some shops that open directly onto the sidewalk have parking in the rear.

Just sayin'...
