WHY DID O'REILLY ASK dRumpf THAT LOADED QUESTION ABOUT PUTIN?

I am wondering why he asked that question. He knew dRumpf could not answer. He also put him on the spot about lying about the voter fraud bullshit. Was it a set-up? Repug typically orally fellates the doofus. Is there a crack in the repug traitor armor? WTF? I can't believe O'Reilly just handed the American people confirmation dRumpf is a traitor. What is going on?

Of course he just handed us powerful ammo and I am quite sure O'Reilly has absolutely no interest in objective journalism, so what's up in the Repug ranks? That Putin factor is kryptonite for Orangehead. Is this the first sign the repug fellatio fest might be cracking? Maybe he thought he could get him to answer directly to stave off the growing evidence regarding dRumpf is Putin's poodle. Not sure but it does make me wonder.

Chris Wallace was taking him to task more than Chuck Todd and John Dickerson last week.

Yes it is all Bizarro world now.

Maybe some of them are getting scared and they know they have the power to bring him down.

Maybe O'Reilly did not expect him to give such a shite punt answer but if that is the case, then why are they releasing that particular clip. Also they released a tense question about the voter fraud non-sense which he did not answer. Please let this be a sign from the heavens the KGOP is getting nervous about the lunatic.

...FOX did not edit... and they released this clip to promote. They love ratings but they don't make their own people look this bad. Strange.
