Fox has joined the Club of Idiots who could not figure this out.

If you get close to Trump, at some point he will turn on you. If you get close to Trump you put yourself at great risk. Trump is pure poison. It is unbelievable so many people could not figure this out.

Not only is FOX facing serious lawsuits, Trump is telling his voters not to watch FOX. I don't know what Fox ratings look like now. However, what scumbag Carlson just did looked like an act of desperation to get people to watch Fox.

People who supported Trump are getting everything they deserve and I am enjoying every moment of it.

however, fake news know exactly what they are doing in the past, present and future. The question is, will it work.

RWer's message, DeSatan is "smarter, younger and prettier". He's the wet dream candidate that will jettison the USA into a religious haven for RWer's form of religious insanity. Hallelujah!

Trump make money any longer, he tried to take their audience.

As of right now, Fox has been shown as the stupid enough worshipper of Mammon to actually lose its audience all by itself.

in political commentary, I think, used to say everything Trump touches dies. Does anyone remember that? I believe it to be true. He’s been trying very hard to kill our democracy for a while now with some help.

Sure, the former guy cuts everyone dead for slights real and imagined, but he told Fox that they were special, and he'd never turn on them. It's the same dynamic of so many dysfunctional relationships.

the people saw that he could bleed real blood (a woman drew first blood) and were bigly pissed off. Didn't go well for Sean after that. Went from God to loser very quickly.

So which is the God, Fox or Trump or both?

What scares me is that this country allowed him to be President for 4 years. That's about as close as you can get.

It was a fucking nightmare of a joke. It's hard to believe it happened. He had no idea what the fuck he was doing while he was president. He just listened to the people around him and did what sounded best for him. In many cases he did not care about doing the job of president. It was all about corruption and enriching himself.

Great the condemnation by some R senators of tuckem's twisting of the J6 tapes.

I heard last night (Alex Wagner, I think) that Faux only has a diehard core of 2-3 million viewers.

What Pendejo45 has, is Sadim touch (Midas spelled backwards), where everything he touches turns to $hit.

We here have known this for years.
MAGA should have figured this out by now, but they're in a cult, so it will take an intervention.

If 50 percent are above average, that means the other 50 percent are below average. The thing is, those below average often don't know they are below average. They "feel" they are above average and they are very important, but Trump has convinced these people that he cares for them and he knows they are smart. After all, they support him, don't they? He's their hero. I had a relative who is a really good person, but would really annoy me. During Trump's presidency, every time the stock market did very well, would say, Well, what do you think of Trump now?

I know that Trump had some very, very intelligent working for him. But most of the time they were delusional and thought they could control him, which they could, but only to a certain point. This is still playing out because he still has some of his core Trumpists, and of course, there are the opportunists like Carlson who I think believe in nothing, but surf the wave to greater wealth.
