I knew Fox News was bad, but holy shit!

I stopped tuning into Fox News a long time ago. I'm watching The Daily Show on my DVR. They are playing some clips from Fox and Sean Hannity is literally telling his audience Booker will ban meat if he gets elected. Is this the kind of absurd shit they are telling their audience about all of our candidates? And their dumbass audience believes this stuff? And they refuse to listen to anything else because Trump calls them fake?

that a president could have the power to ban meat if he wanted to do so. That could be because they believe Dear Leader Trump's power is absolute, which is also scary.

Were they sleepwalking through their lives up until the second the Dear Leader descended the Golden Escalator? Come on, where did all their knowledge up until that moment disappear to?
