Now you know another reason that FOX has tried everything it can to derail Trump. They are colluding with Rubio. Rubio of course supports amnesty for illegal aliens.

Wow, the GOP is eating itself alive, and even Faux News isn't safe from all the poo-slinging.

Libs, grab some popcorn.

Cons, grab your ankles.

It not unusual in politics to get news organizations to see your point of view in order to sway public opinion. Pretty sure Nixon, Reagan, LBJ, JFK did it all the time. They were always in touch with the big newspaper publishers and editors or trying to get Cronkite and network anchors to see their point of view in their stories. That is how LBJ got his and JFKs civil rights laws passed.....power of public opinion ....a political tool.

...Their mission was to persuade Rupert Murdoch, the owner of the media empire, and Roger Ailes, the chairman and chief executive of its Fox News division, to keep the network’s on-air personalities from savaging the legislation and give it a fighting chance at survival.

Mr. Murdoch, an advocate of immigration reform, and Mr. Ailes, his top lieutenant and the most powerful man in conservative television, agreed at the Jan. 17, 2013, meeting to give the senators some breathing room.

But the media executives, highly attuned to the intensifying anger in the Republican grass roots, warned that the senators also needed to make their case to Rush Limbaugh, the king of conservative talk radio, who held enormous sway with the party’s largely anti-immigrant base...
Is anyone still under the illusion that the media is NOT bought and paid for political hacks? This goes for the left and the right.

All. Media. Lies.

I know! It's funny to watch. The GOP Oligarchy is loosing their minds. The twit Nikki Haley from South Carolina actually said that they don't want people to start looking at the parties current value system and implied it would be dangerous. For her and the other elites trying to stop Trump it would be very dangerous.
