Epic takedown of Charles Krauthammer by Laura Ingraham! Krauthammer is such a smug Never-Trumper and Laura called him out for it. She was fabulous!
I am a slow thinker. Mamma always said. And that’s a good thing.
Coordination: Krauthammer is repeating Jennifer Rubin’s talking points, or vice versa.

Kraut: “It’s not in his heart ... yesterday he was reading off a prompter.”
Why Trump had to be badgered to condemn neo-Nazis
By Jennifer Rubin August 14
EXCERPT
“He read from a teleprompter. Speaking from his heart would have been impossible, “
I think you meant Molly Henneberg, not Mollie Hemmingway
Yes. I commented my aggravation about Hayes on a thread yesterday. So fed up with Never-Trumpers. Trump is THE PRESIDENT! We have enough aggravation with the 99% of Big Media who is against him, without having the Never-Trumpers kicking him, too!
Wow! Not even using original thoughts? Krauthammer is due for retirement sometime soon!
I quit watching Special Report because of Charles and Hayes.
I usually like Tucker, but turn his show off if he has Kraut on there.
And, we know what a tool Rubin is.
“I like Gutfeld, Watters, and Guilfoyle. I wouldn’t like to see that show dropped. Perino is ok half the time (but usually not at crunch time), and the token liberal is usually better than the liberals on any other station.”
I Agree with you.
You could not pay me enough to watch Fox at 9 P.M. with that dumb program running.
The Fox network has lost its mind.
Welcome to FR! And I mean that!
I got DirecTV in 1998 (same year I joined this site, as a matter of fact) just to watch FoxNews. I would camp out to await Charles’ words - it was difficult to record back then.
I stopped being transfixed by him well before the 2016 election. Then the trees in front of my dish got too thick and I was forced to get Uverse.
What a surprise! They had OANN!
Now, I might watch FandF in the morning for a few minutes until they put on the first NeverTrumper, usually around 9am, and the I switch to OANN for the real news.
Then I switch to Varney on Fox Business to watch the markets.
Trump doesn’t speak to the racism narrative, in my opinion, because he truly doesn’t believe it is a big problem. He thinks that if people are busy working, taking of their lives, feeding their families and paying their bills there is no time for that ridiculousness. It is an excuse for a generation constantly looking for an excuse. Someone is prejudiced against you??? So what? Toss them aside and make your life worthwhile. He believes in law, order, accountability and results. He isn’t a touchy, feely guy.
The media wants another Obama. Someone to feel their every pain and deep seeded guilt.
Trump is a man. The media needs to get used to it.
I can’t wait for Laura to get her own show in FOX.
OAN is Channel 347 on DirecTV or watch online.
Laura says Trump called out the neo-Nazi’s and the Klan in his Monday statement. Krauthammer says that was on a teleprompter and that Trump didn’t condemn the Klan and Nazi’s on Saturday because “it’s not what’s in his heart.”
Laura says “you can read hearts? Wow!”
“ Perino is ok half the time”
Nope.....Perino is not ok all the time!!
bkmk - to watch later...
I still DVR the show but zip to the panel. If Laura, Mercedes or Mollie is on, I watch.
I DVR Tuckers show too but usually end up fast forwarding through most of it. Can’t take what passes for ‘debate’ on that show.
Krauthammer just ain’t what he used to be. He drones on and on. Tonight him making the statement he knew what was in Trump’s heart.....just wow. Instant loss of any remaining credibility. Laura - “You really DO have a PHD !” LOL!!!
“...Trump didn’t condemn the Klan and Nazi’s on Saturday because “it’s not what’s in his heart.””
That really p!sses me off. How the h!ll does Kraut KNOW what is “in Trump’s heart”? What absolute pompous sanctimony.
“One of the themes Krauthammer hit on tonight was that slavery and segregation was a uniquely American problem”
I wish I had the context of that statement, otherwise, it is stupid. Slavery has existed from time immemorial. The British and the Americans were the ones who stamped it out. Slavery destroyed the job market for Roman citizens. With each military victory, the Romans brought back hordes of the vanquished as slaves. The result was that it eventually turned Rome into a dictatorship.
Laura starts out her very first remark all over the place, trying to force all that trump says and does into the “advance his agenda” cubby hole.
Krauthammer wasn’t having any of that “agenda” business.
He wanted to speak to the “moral” side of Charlottesville and the remarks of the president as they applied to that side of the argument.
Kraut does not like Trump, but Laura is only luke warm on him, herself. She makes her DC living off of his loyal supporters or would be otherwise rather against him.
THAT is why FAUXNews may want her.
“Trump didn’t condemn the Klan and Nazi’s on Saturday because “it’s not what’s in his heart.”
That is a vile and despicable and stupid accusation.
