Fox Hosts Aren't Coping With Possible Trump Indictment



Fox Hosts Aren’t Coping With Possible Trump Indictment
PANIC STATIONS
“They better not put my president in prison,” worried Jesse Watters, as doing so would also mean “putting 74 million votes in prison.”

Fox News hosts fretted Monday over the potential indictment of Donald Trump for a $130,000 hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign.

“They better not put my president in prison,” an upset Jesse Watters said on The Five before clinging to Trump’s popular vote count in the 2020 election as some sort of defense. “He represents 74 million Americans. And if he’s the nominee, you’re putting 74 million votes in prison. And that’s how I see it.”

For his part, Greg Gutfeld said he didn’t want “to live in a world where paying porn actresses hush money is considered a crime.” He continued: “That’s sexist. You pay for the sex and you pay for them not to talk about it.”

Gutfeld argued Bragg “was waiting for the right time” for a possible indictment, “in order to guarantee that Trump gets the nomination.”

Because charging him would be putting over 81 million in prison.

Truly how sick of a person do you have to be to worship a man like Trump that much?

In saner times, just the act of fooling around with any woman other than his wife would be enough to ruin his career. Now they make excuses for him and say it's no big deal.

He probably knows that, but he'll continue to obfuscate to misinform the rubes who watch him.

So you morons are saying 74 million people think we should have a crooked president that breaks the law with no retribution? They need to move to some fascist country and leave us normal people alone.

And calling their own daughters a piece of ass?

And comparing their daughters favorably with their sex worker?
