Kudlow has been slurping that fake news maga Kool aid though. He's as pathetic as Lindsay Graham in terms of how much he's become a MAGA delusional

Perhaps the other Trump supporters at Fox will join Hannity on the "new" network.
This is how I see things happening in the very near future.
That certainly wouldn't be a conflict of interest, now would it?

FOX is fair and balanced. The other media outlets are not.

Fox will do whatever gets them the best ratings and right now they think this approach is working for them.

Fox and Trump seemed to have a special relationship during the Trump campaign, and up to perhaps the Mueller report, then things changed.
Now, Trump is angry with fox, because some on that station don't care for him.

Typical of New Yorker's,(city dwellers) if they are backed into a corner, they come out swinging, even if no one cares.
Step just a little on their toes, and they get extremely defensive.

What I see ahead is, Trump is going after OAN news.
He will make them an offer to purchase the station, and will do this soon, so that it will be up and running during the 2020 campaign.
I also believe he will use his very good friend Bill Orielly to head up the station, and take Hannity from Fox to join the station.

Bob.
Right from the beginning I'm thinking "say what?!?"

I follow/read a good many news sites every morning including Fox News. Fox is so uniquely and heavily tilted toward it's target audience, I can't imagine how anyone can believe Fox is "fair and balanced," unless they have no real frame of reference that helps them know better.

Good reason to stop considering your further takes, and I'm sure you mean O'Reilly (I like to call him O'Really), and again REALLY? Now at this time when every deekhead is going down for sexual harassment, you think one of those poster boys, Trump's good friend, even deserves mention let alone consideration?

After O'Reilly's career went to the crapper when it came out he paid six women nearly $50 million to settle sexual harassment lawsuits? O'Reilly and Fox News had settled $13 million and an additional settlement of $32 million that O'Reilly paid to settle a sixth harassment claim?

THIS is your take?

David Brooks:

"... what struck me this week was how the debate changed around Donald Trump. There has been whispering, is he mentally not as fit as he was? Are impairments rising?

That somehow seemed to rise and now become public conversation. When he said his father was with born in Germany, when your father was born in the Bronx, that's not something you normally get wrong. That his wife is good trends with the North Korean leader, when she had never met him.

I mean, there are just a lot of things coming out of his mouth. And this has always been the case, but the verbal patterns — psychiatrists are not allowed to judge people they haven't met, but there are certainly a lot of people out there raising a lot of red flags.

So, that — to me, among the tumult of — the political tumult the G7, the psychological tumult is almost one of the key takeaways."

We've all heard how Trump supporters don't mind describing Trump as "rude, crass and insulting," others even question his mental stability. Sometimes I wonder if Trump supporters love Trump because he's "one of them" or just why so many people don't seem to mind all the "red flags," but obviously it's something like how art appreciation is all about the "eyes of the beholder."
