Kilmeade Fumes as Ex-Obama Adviser Says Fox News Is Trump's 'Happy Place'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Dumb Fux & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade grew incredibly defensive on Thursday morning when former Obama campaign manager David Plouffe noted that President Donald Trump has Fox News on his side, claiming that Trump “doesn’t have the whole network.”

Discussing former Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign on Trump's favorite morning show, Kilmeade asked Plouffe why the suddenly resurgent candidate didn’t have a better fundraising foundation and staff during the early days of the race. Plouffe, after touting Biden’s recent momentum, quickly pivoted to taking shots at the incumbent. And, in turn, Fox News.

“Trump has this network,” the ex-Obama adviser said. “He has his unofficial campaign chairman Vladimir Putin. He has billions of dollars. He is a brilliant marketer.”

Kilmeade, meanwhile, grumbled that it was “not right” to invoke the Russian leader in that manner, prompting Plouffe to reply: “Listen, [Trump] got help last time.”

2. I would disagree with Plouffe on one point he made ..

I do not believe trump is "a brilliant marketer". Trump is not brilliant in anything. He sure couldn't market all his failed businesses.

4. He IS brilliant at bullshitting and brainwashing rednecks, racists, bigots, religious nuts,

and homophobes. IOW, his base. They will believe every lie he tells and support every policy he puts forward.

7. Well, then,

They should change the motto they use.

"Most Watched, Most Trumpish."

The old ones are the same: "Fair and Trumpled." As well as, "We be biased, you Trumpide."

19. It was "not right" for Trump to employ (implore?) Putin -- or perhaps...

... for Putin to employ Trump?

But here we are.
