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.

That may well be, but DJT doesn’t have quite the support he did before and for good reason. Bottom line he didn’t deliver, and his choice of advisors can be questionable. He doesn’t appear to have learned anything from his past experience, it’s the same old same old. We’ll see if he can park is Ego, just a little bit.

Switch to Real America’s Voice. It’s very good.

I broke up with Fox News in 2016.

I admit I still watch Tucker on Rumble/Youtube

Varney has always been sanctimonious.

Even more indications that DeSantis is in bed with the GOPe.

Oh, no. I never expected Stuart Varney to go over to the dark side. Say it ain't so, Joe!

I watch NewsMax now. Fox news has moved left with some exceptions. People like Bret Baier make me sick but I’ll still watch Watters, Gutfeld . . . . . .

Maria Bartiromo and Charles Payne still seem very loyal to Trump.

The press hasn’t even started attacking DeSantis.

They will.

Guess what? People can support someone besides Trump and still be for America first.

For me, I grew tired of Trump’s all talk and no action during the rioting of 2020, turning his presidency over to Fauci to shutdown the country, spending us into oblivion with CARES and son of CARES. Finally, the third person “Trump” branding talk is stupid - he lost sight of the reasons people supported him in the first place and has now made all about himself, rather than America.

This is a long way of saying...Varney is still good to me.

That may well be, but DJT doesn’t have quite the support he did before and for good reason.

He didn't have the support before he announced in 2015 either. But, he won the necessary support to get him elected in 2016, and actually, in 2020. He'll do it again for the 2024 election. He absolutely can't be counted out. He still has the support of most of his original voters.

Bottom line he didn’t deliver

What did he have to deliver? Once he mentions support for a candidate, he doesn't have to hold their hands and campaign for them; it's up to them to win over the voters, and perhaps many of them just weren't worth Trump's support.

and his choice of advisors can be questionable.

Advisors come and go, and many are good and others not so good. But, the one that needs to set policy and implement the policies, is the candidate and president. When it comes to results, nobody can do it better than Trump and he delivered. BIG TIME. Some people has short memories.

He isn’t stupid. If he’s doing this he knows he’s hurting Deantis.

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

They demand 100% absolute and total loyalty. Any criticism at all is not acceptable and grounds for banishment.

“Guess what? People can support someone besides Trump and still be for America first.”

Especially when that person really delivers!

The greatest governor and more conservative than Trump.

Same here - https://www.bitchute.com/channel/tucker-carlson/

We don’t have TV. Not paying for cable/satellite/streaming. Would have to have a badass antenna on a tower to get broadcast TV. I watch the free streaming stuff and that’s it.
