Things are getting even more pathetic on Fox News, as the network is now trying to compare Donald Trump to John F. Kennedy, whiling taking shots at President Obama in the process.

(70,182 posts)2. ha ha... all because trumpy talks to the press....
...."Forget whether Donald Trump wants to echo back the party of Ronald Reagan," host Neil Cavuto said, before asking "is he more imitating the likes of John F. Kennedy?" Cavuto was speaking in reference to Trump's latest press conference, where he took a wide range of questions in a short amount of time.
"Donald Trump talked for 26 minutes and took in 29 questions. Barack Obama, in his last press conference back on July 15, spoke for one hour and eight minutes and took 10 questions," Cavuto said, taking yet another shot at Obama. Cavuto then turned his focus back to Kennedy, linking him to Trump while hitting back at Obama for a second time.
"John F. Kennedy. He had 64 press conferences by the time of his death. The typical press conference included upwards of 35 questions. In other words, triple the number of Barack Obama...and on par with Donald Trump."
While he has had his issues with Fox News host Megyn Kelly, Trump can still call the network home. With the number one cable news station in the country having a long history of conservative bias, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Fox News would like to capitalize on the popularity of Democratic icon like Kennedy and link him to the Republican party front runner.

Obama gets questions like "how do you intend to soften the blow to the us economy from the collapse of chinas stock market?"
Trump gets "is that your real hair?"
Anything more complex than that, the questioner gets removed from the building
