Donald Trump: Fox News Is ‘In Love’ with Marco Rubio, They Protect him
Breitbart ^ | Feb 18, 2016 | Julia Hahn

Posted on 02/19/2016 9:45:51 AM PST by JSDude1

GOP frontrunner Donald Trump slammed Fox News and the broader Rupert Murdoch empire for its open adoration of donor-class favorite Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)79% . As Breitbart News has previously reported, Rubio has been Congress’s biggest champion of Rupert Murdoch’s open borders advocacy efforts. Trump explained that Fox News has “protected” Rubio — constantly buoying his campaign, even as he has continued to perform dismally.

“They’re in love with Rubio. Why? I have no idea, but they’re in love with Rubio,” Trump declared on Thursday’s program of Breitbart News Daily on SiriusXM Patriot 125.

“They are in love with Rubio and it’s amazing to me,” Trump said.

Perhaps further delineating the chasm between the media’s portrayal of Rubio and his actual performance, Trump has previously described Rubio as “a choke artist… And we can’t have that as a president can we?” Trump explained that, under pressure from Chris Christie, Rubio could not stop sweating during his televised debate meltdown. “I was standing next to Rubio and I thought he just got out of a swimming pool” Trump said.

Yet Trump pointed out that Fox has gone to great lengths to “protect” Rubio. “After he [Rubio] cratered in the debate, they protected him,” Trump said.

I'm flattered that you think that we Trump idiots would line up behind Cruz when it's obvious that we're so easily bamboozled.

Indeed it is.

So if we’re so stupid, why would we line up behind Cruz when Bernie has all the free stuff he’s giving out?

Trump comes on Fox & Friends 2 or 3 mornings a week.

It’s not hard questions there.

That wittle baby Trump is on Fox and gets more Fox air time than anyone.

The problem is: He’s Trump and he doesn’t get it all.

Why would Fox News need cheap labor. It’s hotels and gambling joints that need cheap labor.

That’s why Trump opened that back door in The Wall.

The Donald does pick fights with everyone but it’s never hand to hand combat.

He uses lawyers.

Exactly what I said, Richard.

If someone would add it up, he’s probably logged twice as many TV hours on Fox as Mario has.

And three times as many as Cruz.

There is one problem, though. Trump wants all the hours.

Mine, mine.

Murdoch should buy Trump and sell him to China.

At a discount.

Cruz knows the constitution by heart.

He would not be running if he was not sure he qualifies as a natural born citizen.

Why doesn’t your idol, The Don, bring that Lawsuit?

“And all his life, Cruz’s father has referred to Teddy, as the “King”, referencing his being the “Seventh King”, soldier of God, “face of God” to America. You know, lunatic fringe, cult lunacy.”

Well, I called my daughter the Princess.

Parents are allowed to say these things.

Problem: Most of the Trump supporters think the Donald is the King or at least a Mystical Ruler sent by heaven.

It is hysterically ironic to see a Trumpee refer to cult lunacy.

Sounds like you’ve reached the point where Fox is becoming predictable. Not long now before you join those of us who’ve dumped that propaganda rag.

Ted speaks fluent Canadian as do I.

He also speaks a little Spanish.

You seriously expect me to click on your link after you called the freeper a bitch?

Language, people.

It isn’t hard.

Maybe for Trump.

Yes. I do.

And yes, I did. It’s called an internet meme. I’m sure you’re familiar with those.

Besides, when it’s in response to being called an idiot, what should my response be? Ask for another? When I’m compared to a chimp, should I just be silent? When you and your ilk treat me with utter contempt and condescension, should I sit there and take it?

Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, I think the old phrase goes. And YOU can stick that where there is a 100% absence of sunlight, little miss holier-than-thou.
