Fox & Friends On Trump's Mid-Speech Water Break: 'So Cute How He Used Both Hands!'

by Colby Hall | 7:46 am, November 16th, 2017

Yesterday, President Donald Trump gave a post-Asia trip speech touting the highlights and diplomatic accomplishments from the White House, during which he took a brief water break. Many in the media – and on Twitter – saw similarities to when Senator Marco Rubio took a similar swig of water while giving a speech on live television, of which he was derided by many, including then-GOP candidate Donald Trump.

This morning this light moment was addressed by Fox & Friends, the top-rated cable news morning show which has become a reliable voice of support for the Trump administration. Predictably, they also saw the humor in this event but also mocked those on the Internet who had fun with this event.

But it was co-host Ainsley Earhardt who had the sweetest and most maternal reaction to the clip of Mr. Trump hoisting the bottle of Fiji water to his arid maw, saying “it’s so cute how he used two hands!”

Some may see this comment as a sweet and improvised reaction to a light and funny Presidential moment. Others may see it as an example of infantilizing the most powerful person in the free world and Commander-in-Cheif.

We report. You decide.

In the day care center that is the oval office, they'd never forget a nipple for his bottle. Sad!

Repeat everything the left is saying about the moment, and say it while laughing. Masterfully done. I'm depressed.
