Fox & Friends this morning praised President Trump for his meeting with Vladimir Putin yesterday and said that bringing up election interference completely shut down one of the Democrats talking points.
He wasnt supposed to bring up the meddling, Abby Huntsman said. The Democrats were saying hes never gonna talk about this, hes not even gonna touch it, so guess what? President Trump not only touched it, it was the first thing he brought up in this meeting.
She concluded that Democrats have nowhere to go now because Trump raised the election interference issue directly to Putin.
Pete Hegseth said the Democrats have been in the fantasyland of collusion for too long. He said it should come as no surprise to anyone that Russia lies. Huntsman asked, Then why do Democrats believe what they say today?
Exactly. And its amazing to watch the Democrats do whatever they can to discredit this President, Hegseth said. First he was wrong because he wont bring it up. Then when he brings it up hes wrong cause the Russians are giving a different story. Theyre gonna spin whatever they want to make themselves look good. If anything, theyre expert propagandists.

(101,320 posts)so that they can be convinced of the preferred Trump regime lie before exposure to reality. So they present the proles with "Trump Is Tough!!! Dems Know Nothing!!!", and by the time they talk to someone whose seen the real news, they can dismiss that as "Fake Nooz!!!!!".
It is the American Pravda.
