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.

Both Fox News and Business were supposed to be “We report you decide.” What the hell ever happened to that concept? Anchors should STFU and keep the comments to themselves.

Two years is a lifetime in politics. This election shows more than anything that Old America with its culture, history and traditions is on life support. The long march through the institutions is about complete. They are currently in a hold and clear pattern in this war. Whenever I hear someone say we need to put aside our differences and work for the country, it means we need to surrender.

That is not for him to decide.

Nor is it yours Leann. His opinion is just as relevant as yours......

“Now I’m more interested in what he has planned for the rest of us..”

Freedom, conservatism and individual responsibility. That really scares you!

Stop watching television.

Excellent idea. I stopped depending on that vast wasteland in 1995. Haven't missed it a bit.

People can’t help but reveal their anti-American nature when it comes to President Trump. It seems to be one of his super powers.

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

I have. Several times. Just because you haven’t see reality doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

Yes, I (sadly) dropped Varney & Co after the 2020 elections when he continued to refer to Obiden as “President” rather than President elect.

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.


Short memories? Did you miss Trump’s latest food flinging attack at Youngkin and DeSantis? We must accept that a lot voters do not want this style Trump reality show 24/7/365. We can’t wish Trump POTUS again. It’s going to take votes of a lot of people who are not hardcore MAGA and do not want this noise from Trump.

What is disappearing in that case are ballots. We are using votes instead. Ballots seem to breed. When you use just legal votes you get entirely different counts and outcomes.

Trump forgot to build the foundation and his building crumbled.

Trump failed to turn the nation. He lost.

DeSantis built his foundation first. He turned Florida from purple to 20 points red.

He delivered. BIG TIME.

mitch betrayed viable conservative candidates.

until we figure out how to successfully flush the toilet, we don’t need any more excrement in our bowl...

sometimes you have to get a cable and augur that sewage line all the way to the fertilizer plant...

we are rife with trolls.

The LIEberal press will leave DeSantis alone until such time as the LIEberal press figures DeSantis will be the Republican nominee — which I hope and pray does not occur until 2028!

Then, the LIEberal press will start their massive attack machine.

Just like they have done since Ronald Reagan was POTUS!

President Trump has the stones to fight back! That is why I support him for 2024.

And I REALLY hope that the MAGA folks have figured out how to “beat the LIEberal cheat!”

I switched to Newsmax this morning when Pence came on. I never watch Cavuto since the 2020 election.
