Brit Hume says voters may ask if Trump picked Vance because he ‘sucked up effectively’
The Hill ^ | 07/15/2024 | Nick Robertson

Posted on 07/15/2024 6:13:43 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Fox News analyst Brit Hume questioned former President Trump’s pick of Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) to be his vice presidential candidate, pointing to Vance’s past harsh criticisms of Trump.

Hume posited that voters may come to question how Vance became the candidate over other top picks.

“You think, well, is this person, how did he get the job? Did he get it because he was really the best qualified to be president?” Hume said. “Or did he get it because he sucked up effectively to the nominee? People will have questions about that.”

Vance was a fierce critic of Trump before becoming a close ally, once calling himself a “never-Trumper,” and dubbed Trump “a total fraud,” “a moral disaster” and “America’s Hitler” during the 2016 campaign.

Hmm let see a venture capitalist and newbie politician. I suspect the has beens in DC are just pissed because Trump picked someone like him instead of one of theirs.

The Murdochs hate Vance about as much as they hate Trump. They are for the war machine while Trump and Vance are against it.

I cord cut along time ago... so all those talking stuff, I’d rather listen to self made Youtubers or just sports radio.

However, I will admit, man I miss Rush and wonder what’d he’d think of this news cycle.

Fox viewers could just as easily ask Hume if he got his position at Fox on his knees.
Such things happen in the world of liberals, including liberal republicans.
KMA Fox

Saw him once in person at a local chain box store. It’s kind of funny because he was walking just behind me and I heard the voice first (he was talking on his cell) and it sounded like someone from TV I thought wow that sounds just like Herman Munster - Fred Gwinn and I turned and looked at him and my first thought was “Fred Gwinn!” until I remembered he had died long ago. Then I recognised it was Brit Hume.

"Well, that sure beats Biden’s form of ucking up effectively."

And beats Kamala's form of sucking people off.

I had to stop watching Fox News today when it had a panel full of Trump haters. Who does Fox think is watching their channel? I was hoping for some speeches from the convention.
