CNN's Brianna Keilar Expertly Dismantles Trump's Idea Of Fox Sycophants As Moderators

President Donald Trump this week suggested that some of his favorite fawning Fox News hosts — like Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Tucker Carlson and others — would be “fair” hosts of a 2020 presidential debate.

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Newsroom,” anchor Brianna Keilar examined how the highly unlikely scenario could play out.

“Seems like he’s kidding, but these are the people he flocks to, people he says are fair,” Keilar said. “If his wish came true and they moderated a debate, do you think they’d really press him on the administration’s failed response to the coronavirus?”

Keilar aired footage of various personalities on the widely watched conservative network stumping for Trump, defending the government’s catastrophic handling of the pandemic, and criticizing Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

"How great would you be in a second, third and fourth term?" "Aren't you, in fact, the greatest president in the history of the world?" "It is well know that you are the perfect physical specimen, how can anyone disagree with this?"

So now he realizes his bullying and lying didn’t work very well and as usual wants to change the rules in his favor. Pretty much the story of his failed life. He is too incompetent to be successful at anything so always looking for some way to cheat. What a LOSER!
