Remember when Obama used a teleprompter how crazed Fox News would get?

That somehow using the teleprompter made you scripted and fake. I do believe the orange turd used to insult Obama and Hillary for using a teleprompter up until just 3 months ago. And the Fox/Trump crowd made fun of candidates that used them as being elite or whatever they thought.

Gee, who uses the teleprompter pretty much consistently now and is instructed to do so so he doesn't say stupid shit?

How the tide has turned.

Me either. Seem like from the very beginning, Foxnews was built to appeal to the racist, sexist, bigot out there not happy with just hate radio.

A Rosemary's baby of Brietbart "news" and Infowars.

That should be delightful for our national discourse and democracy.

who knows which other crazy evil folks. I hope people are getting tired of hate radio and hate tv won't make it. Watching Glenn Beck's The Blaze fall apart along with his tv empire gives me hope people are just not that into hate and racism anymore.

He takes his eyes off and he's talking total bullshit. Eyes back on, still full of shit but coherent. Eyes off, back to bullshit and conspiracies.

He really needs to go down "bigly".

they do not believe any of the reasons they give for their position. They do not believe in Christianity or that a man should be moral in his private life. They only use these things to attempt to convince other people for whom they have no respect. Thus they do not believe what they say about teleprompters either. Only if someone they don't like is using it. If someone they do like is using it, it is OK. Showing they have no real opinion on the matter.

I've ever seen. The whole idea is to make it look like you aren't using one. You're supposed to use it as an aid and not just read directly off of it. That asshole stares straight at the thing and goes all robotic.

He's such a fucking putz in every aspect of life, it's pathetic.
