Fox News Turns On Trump After Putin Press Conference Disaster
Fox News hosts are ripping Trump from throwing America under the bus by delivering a disgusting press conference with Putin.
Video Fox News host Neil Cavuto @ link...
Former Dep. Asst. Attorney General Tom Dupree said on Fox Business, What I was hoping to see today and what we didnt see a forceful condemnation of Russias interference
Neil Cavuto, There was none of that. Not even a hint of that. Zilch.
Dupree continued, That is what I wanted to see. All well and good for the president to talk about the Strzok and server and Hillary Clinton and all of that. But this wasnt the time and the place this is the time and place for the president to look Putin squarely in the eye and said you will be punished for what you did in 2016, dont ever think about doing that again.
Cavuto added, But he didnt. That made it disgusting. That made his performance disgusting. Only way I feel. Not a right or left thing to me. It is wrong. U.S. President foreign soil talking to our biggest enemy or adversary or competitor, I dont know how we define them away, essentially letting the guy get away with this, not even, offering a mild, a mild criticism. That sets us back a lot.

I reminded them it doesn't exactly mean they're innocent either.

But, I am grateful Cavuto said.. Maybe just maybe some trumphans would rather be more American than Russian.
And, anyway.. why pray tell would trump bite the hand that feeds him the "presidency".. he wants to do it right up front on a World stage.. so BE IT.
