Fox News Host: Trump ‘Sounds Insane’ on Latest Russian Meddling Denial
The president left a normally supportive Fox News host baffled after saying Russia is not still trying to interfere with U.S. elections.

With one simple contraction—“wouldn’t”—President Donald Trump got Fox News back on his side. And then hours later, with the word “no,” he seems to have lost them all over again.

Asked by a reporter, during a Wednesday afternoon cabinet meeting, if Russia is “still targeting the U.S.,” Trump replied: “Thank you very much, no.”

From there, with his arms folded defiantly, he declared, “There's been no president ever as tough as I have been on Russia.”

After playing that clip on Fox News’ Outnumbered, co-host Melissa Francis seemed utterly baffled as she said that when the question was asked of Trump, “All he said was ‘no,’ which sounds insane.”

“It does sound insane,” agreed the panel show’s lone Democrat for the day, Jake Maccoby, a former speechwriter for Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch.

“It could be that he believes we’re stopping the meddling at this point,” Francis speculated, attempting to inject some hope into the confusion.

When Maccoby suggested she was “working hard to make it sound reasonable,” Francis pushed back: “It doesn’t sound remotely reasonable and I’m not trying to say it sounds reasonable.”

1. I believe it is fact. He's fucking looney toons

2. I was reading a Francis Ford Coppola interview

and he said he went to the same military school as the moron and he has known him for a while and he didn't used to be like this. He said that something has happened to him, but he also added that he didn't know him really well. He has gotten crazier but if he has narcissistic personality disorder, has sociopathic tendencies and has borderline personality disorder there is nothing that can be done to "cure him". All of these can be partially treated with tons of ongoing therapy and that may have a small improvement, but not much. There are no meds to treat him for these disorders either. He needs to be removed from office but his cabinet is getting richer since they are corruption experts and they won't use the 25 amend.

3. Nothing to cure him - how about a lobotomy? n/t

4. That'll do it!

Brilliant idea!

5. I'd rather a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy.
