Brit Hume delivers devastating slap-down to Trump-hating lefty Soledad O’Brien

It is now an established practice in roughly 90% of the American media that anything that President Trump does is wrong, and usually an outrage. Thus, when he and Melania flew to Iraq and Germany for a post-Christmas visit to the troops deployed there, it had to be bad, a transparently craven reaction to criticisms that had started appearing in lefty media that he had not yet visited troops in a war zone – as all his recent predecessors had done -- as his first term in office neared its halfway point.

Brit Hume, the senior commentator at Fox News, and a man who has seen it all in the DC swamp over the last several decades, was not an early Trump supporter, but over the last couple of years, seems to have had his fill of TDS-addled media figures hyperventilating about everything Trump does.

The liberal talking heads must get some sort of email blast early in the morning so they can all recite an approved line of attack throughout the day.

Like the holder of any elected office holder Trump is subject to criticism for various things. But it should be rational and based in some sort of fact.

The country really has had its fill of “He’s Hitler! He’s Satan!” hyperventilating. These people need to grow up.

So, what one media person says about another media person is “news?”

THIS is an example of what’s wrong with the media complex (and readers) these days.

Did we ever give a shit about what Howard K Smith thought about Dan Rather?

I went over this yesterday. Bush wen to Iraq in the 2nd year of his presidency at Thanksgiving. Trump went in the 2nd year at at Christmas. Bush started thevwar in Afghanistan in 2001 and didn’t go to Afghanistan until 2006. Thus BS about Trump not going to warzones and everyone else going is BS.

I was on a liberal site a few days ago when the news broke that he was over there and this was exactly their line - that he had been shamed into doing it.

I always crack up when they accuse the right of using talking points. As usual, they are projecting.

According to no less than Hillary Clinton who let this slip, they ALL get a fax with the day’s talking points from the DNC every morning.

devastating? Nothing ‘devastates’ a liberal because they have the support of the enemedia, and because the let don’t even know how to spell the word ‘shame’- you can not devastate or shame many liberals- they aren’t bright enough to know that they’ve been shamed-

This trip was planned weeks ago, yet somehow the Leftist Media Complex claims their ‘Shaming’ of the President on Christmas day was the impetus for the trip. OK?

My first real memory of him is he and Bush One going at it at a presser

Hume was Donaldson lite

“I notice that Fox Nation, the online subscription service that debuted recently is featuring Brit Hume as one of its attractions. If they were to give him an hour a day of commentary, I’d be tempted to subscribe.”

IF FOX wasn’t leaving the gate for Leftyville station I still wouldn’t trust anything of Brit Hume’s analysis. FOX exited the objective route long ago.

Yup. They were good for a while but, no more do I watch them. Cutting the cable helped. 😆
