I think Democrats don’t know how to handle an audience that hasn’t been rigged for them. It’s such a staple for them now.

This wasn’t fox news covering an event run by a candidiate.

This was fox news covering a fox news town hall. They slapped their name and reputation on an event they called a ‘town hall’ and then let the candidate pack the audience.

As far as I know, abc nbc cbs have never let a republican candidate do something similar for an event actually run by their news organization. But i don’t know very much, i’m just an overenthusiastic forum participant.

So Fox News should cover only candidates that you like?

LOL. I can see you a gaslighting Never Trump who likes strawman arguements. Nobody suggested FOX not cover candidates. Giving the America hating Democratas a platform to spew biased propaganda on voters is certainly not acceptable.

The article complains about a candidate packing a “town hall” with their own supporters who give a standing ovation.

Doesn’t our side do this too?


On CNN? No. On NBC? No. On MSNBC? No. Fake News rarely even allow supporters of POTUS let alone actual GOP candidates unfiltered access to their viewers.

Now you are over the target. But of course the virtue signalling “true conservatives” who love to sit in the peanut gallery and criticize will never admit it.
