Scott Pelley was an absolute jerk to Trump. Hateful and snotty line of questioning and retort.

The rest of the media is his home.

“You forgot the /s.”

Nope. Look at an earlier pikachu post:

The liberals have been slandering FOX for decades now.

Now they are flooding our forum, pretending to be ‘conservatives’ and bashing FOX here.

Did you see how easily Trump handled him?

He was a piece of cake for Trump.
