Fox News host sorry for calling Trump, Kim ‘two dictators’
AP ^ | June 10, 2018

Posted on 06/10/2018 2:57:21 PM PDT by McGruff

A Fox News host has accidentally referred to the highly anticipated summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un as a meeting of “two dictators.”

“Fox & Friends” co-host Abby Huntsman made the comment on Sunday as TV footage showed the Republican president landing in Singapore for a summit with Kim on Tuesday. Guest and former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci didn’t catch it.

But the daughter of U.S. Ambassador to Russia Jon Huntsman later apologized on air for what she had said. Her gaffe still took off on Twitter.

Heh, ONE of these days, I am not going to catch it in the wrong situation, and I am certain someone is going to escort me out with a cardboard box of my belongings...

NewsCrap execs endorsed John Kerry in 2004.

Fox News isn’t conservative.

That’s what I’m thinking watching it a couple of times.

Yep, it's fairly obvious.

There are very few “physically attractive” women outside of Fox.

Abby likes Trump, it was a mistake. Let’s not be like liberals and harp on misstatements.

Huntsman doesn’t like Romney at all. That was evident in the presidential primary which Romney won.

Too early for me to watch that show .. lol .. I am retired and keep crazy hours, and so I will concede to your point about Abby is not a Trump hater.

But still even I would never utter the words “2 dictators” in reference to Trump. And I am far less sophisticated or knowledgeable than Abby, and her pay grade is way above mine, not to mention I am twice as old as her.

I’m guessing she meant to say 2 leaders not 2 dictators.

You know Fox and Friends is one of the president’s favorite shows. He watches them and tweets about it.

She may have inadvertantly parroted a characterization that the Fake News Media is promoting.

I can agree. I did not watch the show, but probably was just a slip of the tongue. However on CNN & other left wing media, Trump is routinely referred to as a dictator.

Because nothing says “dictator” like supporting 2A, giving citizens more of their own money back, and slashing government regulations.

Really??? She likes Trump so much she “accidentally” calls him a dictator?

That’s one helluva accident.

Hitler was a Christian...whoops...accident.

I have seen enough of Abbey to know it was a gaffe. No way is she purposely backing herself into a lost career consisting of an CNN/MSNBC gig.
