  1. chose to not agree with our people, which is poor judgment and negligence, or
  2. he believed it but chose to lie and not to act upon it for his own political reasons, which is (quite frankly) morally and ethically worse.

Fox just basically acted as cheerleaders for Trump. Whatever mis-information they passed on to their trusting and yet vulnerable viewers is on them completely, but they irresponsibly followed Trump's lead, and backed him up in his phony narrative all the way.



Many many thousands have died from it while POTUS still won't wear a mask and thinks 125k + deaths with rising numbers is all a hoax...

Say what you want about FOX, but this is the kind of gibberish you get from the left. It sounds exactly like a sound bite from the blabbermouths at CNN or MSDNC.

The left has to keep getting told that it's not responsibility of the Feds to mandate the wearing of masks. It's up to the states and their governors to make that decision. Nevada just did that and from what I've seen most people are complying.

The liberals are too shallow to grasp this concept with their low-IQ mentality that Trump is the root of all evils and the cause of everything that happens. The left doesn't have the brainpower or the guts to take responsibility for the leftist governors and mayors that have been huge failures. It's much easier to just parrot what the lame stream media feeds them and blame someone else.

Why not the Feds?! They should mandate mask wearing across the country...
one rule to eliminate any "confusion"...then the covid will decrease much faster...and economy open sooner...

Soooo...an opinion piece (clue for me, first word is OPINION) that is ENTIRELY about someone else's OPINION is what news is now.



Nice.


Hannity is not The News. He's a talk show host. He's a commentator. He's a pundit. He is not a newscaster and his entire show is ALWAYS his opinion - nothing more - just ask him. You don't have to agree with him. Just agree that his word is not meant to be news or fact. It's just his opinion. No different from Oprah.

You expect Trumpers to believe academic research from the likes of U Chicago, Harvard, and the NBER? Hannity and Tucker told them those nerds are owned by the liberal elite MSM - can't trust it!

Well there are lies, damn lies, and statistics, most of which is fed to the public by the liberal media whose only objective is to vilify Trump. We've been listening to the same BS for three and a half years, so there is no reason the start believing them now.

I wear a mask almost everywhere because I believe it makes me safer. It's not because some academics or some politician said so. I wish everyone would wear one, and yes, that includes Trump. You can bet your bottom dollar, though, that if he came out wearing one or promoted wearing them you leftist clowns would be the first to call him a hypocrite.

After that all we'd here from the liberals is that he should've done it sooner, or he doesn't have the right to tell people what to do, yada yada yada. Stop being a sheep to the media and make your own decisions, but for the left it's impossible to make any decisions without someone holding their hand and telling them what to do.

It doesn't even take a study to be aware that the right-wing media as a whole has been downplaying this pandemic! We see it with our own eyes.
