‘Fox & Friends’ Host: ‘It’s Incumbent Upon’ Trump to Concede: ‘With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility’
The Wrap ^ | 11/25/2020 | Lindsey Ellefson

Posted on 11/25/2020 10:05:39 AM PST by marcusmaximus

Hosts of “Fox & Friends” said Wednesday that confusion about the presidential election — and the responsibility to clear up that confusion — lies squarely with President Donald Trump.

“At some point, it’s going to be incumbent upon him” to acknowledge that Joe Biden has won the election and there was not widespread fraud that would overturn the results, Jedediah Bila said. “It’s going to fall on him. With great power comes great responsibility to say, ‘You know what? The process is done. This is the verdict. Let’s move on.'”

Bila and co-host Steve Doocy both pointed out Trump’s responsibility for sowing distrust in the results of this month’s election, which he has so far refused to concede to President-elect Joe Biden. Trump has baselessly insisted there was widespread voter fraud though his campaign has yet to produce any evidence to substantiate that claim.

“When the president says that the election was rigged against him — he says it a number of times — it starts to ring true to people and they start to believe it,” said Doocy, referring to a CNBC poll from earlier in the week that found only 3% of Trump’s voters consider Biden the winner of the election.

Bila took Doocy’s statements further, adding, “It’s always going to be deeply disappointing when your candidate of choice doesn’t win. With that being said, as of right now, the evidence shows that Joe Biden is the president-elect.

I distrusted the government long, long before Trump said a word about it. They have never given me any reason or proof they could be trusted.

Seeing the stupidity coming from Fox News every day now, makes me extremely grateful that I shut that network off years ago. I don’t watch any news programming.

Bila has turned out to be a real disaster the past couple months. Used to find her as a fair host, but she went way off the reservation this fall. Total anti trump. No rational thought behind her views.

Who TF is that? Oh, some assclowns that still believe their projections are the “be all/end all” when it comes to THE FINAL RESULT! The heck with the constitutional process.

She’s the reason I dumped FNF back in the early fall. She kept on and kept on and finally I turned the channel and haven’t been back since and will not. Between her and that bigot arthel or whatever her name is its a race between a black bigot and a liberal airhead.

I hope President Trump will declare full plenary powers , annul the election , suspend Congress and declare martial law .
If they think they can overt steal the election and grab total power in & over this country , I say all bets are off. It’s time to utterly crush the usurpers and straighten things out in this country , once and for all . Or partition.

I’m kind of surprised Doocy would buy into this nonsense.

I know this may not be a popular statement but I think it is time to move on and stop this national stress. The candidate has a lot of baggage and won’t be on earth forever—repent before too much time has passed. Concede, Joe.

He wants healing and unity. His legacy would be greatly enhanced. Now is the time for Biden to concede. Thanksgiving could be one of the greatest Thanksgivings of all time—Just magnanimously concede, Joe.

“This is the verdict. Let’s move on.”

*************

Former viewers of Fox have reached a verdict on the network and decided to move on.

AMF to Fox.

Astute post by a participant on another website:

The Dems and RINOs wouldn’t be pushing so hard for Trump to concede if they thought that his court case was weak.

Isn’t it ironic that the media ignores the OBVIOUS evidence of fraud and lack of election security YET they accuse Trump of sowing dissension and making baseless claims?

You cannot make this stuff up. It is as breathtaking as Cuomo’s dictator comments. Total lack of self-awareness and more evidence that the majority of Fox personalities and those who write the news on teleprompters are partisans.

You would have to be a fool to ignore the evidence of fraud in this election. It will NEVER go away. NEVER. The media can say whatever they want and it will not change this fact.
