During the primaries and much of the general election campaign, Fox was totally in the tank for Trump. Whenever he spoke, they pre-empted programming to carry every word. Other candidates could barely get brief interviews. Several of the personalities were or are complete Trumpkins.

And no, many if not most of those you deride as Never Trumpers are anything but neocons. But the Ever Trumpers attack anyone who criticizes President Trump on anything — even such things as throwing his weight behind the horrid AHCA — as a “Never Trumper” — despite the fact that man (if not most) of them wound up supporting Trump.

Absolute balogney. EVERY news channel, including Fox, and even some non-political ones, showed Trump's speeches and then spent the next 2 hours criticizing it, calling him all kinds of names, calling it a circus, etc - including Fox. A handful of Fox personalities become Trumpers after he locked up the nomination but even then the majority did not want Trump to win - their faces were not happy on election night (although certainly less sad than CNN and MSNBC).

The vast, vast majority of never Trumpers are Neo-cons - eg: Neo Cons try to make peace with "unfit" president. McCain, Kristol, Bush II, Boot, Rove, etc - all neo-cons that hate Trump.

And while the AHCA is a bad bill, it is still much better than the ACA and given the current makeup of the Senate, your choices are either ACA or AHCA (or even closer to ACA than AHCA) for the meantime.

Seems to me that during the primaries, they were first in the tank for Rubio and then Cruz...I could only watch Hannity and sometimes O’Reilly.

Were we watching the same station?
