I broke up with Fox Business' Stuart Varney today
American Thinker ^ | 11/16/2022 | Leann Horrocks

Posted on 11/16/2022 10:05:57 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Stuart Varney's show on Fox Business has been a staple for me in the mornings for a very long time. I liked him — his story, his style, and the way he brings along others to build their careers. He has always maintained his dignity and been civil to his guests.

Now, however, he has a full-blown case of Trump Derangement Syndrome and is blowing a long career for it. He doesn't like Trump. Okay, I get it. Since just before the election, however, he has become an activist and an unfair one at that. He has a segment called "my take" where he clearly states his opinions. The entire program is now "my take."

We are all disappointed in the election results, but he has put all his energy into lobbying for Ron DeSantis and destroying Trump. I don't think he is helping the Florida governor much. Neither Trump nor DeSantis nor the Republican Party needs a fight right now. But Varney wants one and is spending his hard fought success to get it.

He aggressively states at every possible point that he doesn't think Trump can win in 2024, and that DeSantis is the "future of the party." That is not for him to decide. He solicits virtually every guest to join his crusade — even if it means political suicide for the guest. He is personally outraged that Trump "smeared" DeSantis by calling him "Ron DeSanctimonius." Varney is far more upset about this than DeSantis is. For his part, DeSantis knows that his success will beget a lot worse comments than this, and he knows that a verbal volley with The Donald at this time is a bad idea.

It looks like many old time Freepers like me are now “in bed with the GOPe”.

Or—so you think.

You may want to look very hard in the mirror—and see what is looking back at you.

“he didn’t deliver”

No, we didn’t deliver. He did his part, now he’s giving us another chance to get it right.

“We’ll see if he can park is Ego”

This is the argument of the left.

Yep, the word has gone out. I watched a bit this morning and the girls in unison said the reason Ron did so well in Fla was because of his positive message. Not one word about him locking down the voting process.

Varney admits he was a saocialit/communist as a youth.

Trump never was, and never will be.

REMEMBER FAUX NEWS IS NOT YOUR FRIEND.
They used to pretend to be our friends but now the mask is off and Faux news is the Drudge Report of the airwaves.

She’s most definitely right about that, IMHO.

I understand completely, but he MUST make some adjustments. Get his minions to do the dirty work. You can’t forget this is still politics.

I’m all for destroying the Establishment Uniparty, and no one is more popular on the outside of that cabal than DJT.

However, when he says he is going to end the Deep State by pushing term limits on congress, that tells me that he STILL has no idea what the Deep State is and how to destroy it.

Or that he’s secretly protecting it for some reason. I just don’t understand how he cannot see the evil of the alphabet agencies and how they have been weaponized to push the communist takeover of this country.

I agree with Stuart. Trump cannot win.

What part of $5.00/gallon gas and runaway inflation and near war with Russia and open borders and crime run amok do you prefer to Donald Trump's presidency?

McCuckold threw away the Senate by pulling support in New Hampshire and Arizona, and actively working against Murkowski's non-RINO opponent in Alaska.

And Trump's endorsed picks were like, what, 230-30 or something?

Troll.

Trump '24 - DeSantis '28... Besides this choice is UP TO THE PEOPLE TO DECIDE - NOT UP TO THE 'ELITES'...

You keep posting that same old line. but it won’t work after seeing what DeSantis has done in Florida.

What?

Are you talking about the 940,000 disappearing Democrat "voters" in the 2022 Florida gubernatorial "election"

Very similar to the 250,000 Democrat "voters" who disappeared in Missouri in the 2012 presidential election.

Close to a million Democrats just up and "disappear" from Florida, and nobody has any questions about that?

True - but DeSantis can't win, either.

“Can’t be worse than that snake Cavuto...”

You got that right. Cavuto’s character is somewhere below pond scum.

I saw what he's done in Florida.

Now I'm more interested in what he has planned for the rest of us...Maybe he'll have to check with Schumer/McConnell, our new self proclaimed shared party leaders to find out what they want (as if I didn't know)

They have a new puppet. Guess who'll be dangling from their puppet strings? He might wish he was back in Congress naming Post Offices.

Results aren’t enough. President of the United States requires a degree of diplomacy. No man is an island.

Walk softly and carry a big stick. DJT walks loudly with a tiny stick considering his opposition. He needs to defeat them. He didn’t.

He did pick Wray to run the FBI didn’t he?
