Donald Trump Fox News Lies Joe Biden Polls

Fox News Host Gets Her A*s Handed To Her When She Compares Biden’s Poll Numbers To Trump’s

Fox News host Harris Faulkner got hit with a dose of factual reality when she tried to make fun of President Joe Biden’s poll numbers.

Nomiki Konst, a progressive Fox contributor, was the guest, along with former Rep. Doug Collins (R-GA,) for segment on former President Barack Obama’s return to the White House on Tuesday.

When Faulker suggested that Obama was back in an effort to boost Biden’s polling, Konst reminded her:

“President Biden got 81 million votes. He has received more votes than any presidential candidate in the history of our country. I think he’s pretty popular. That’s it.”

Faulkner asked:

“Have you seen the polls?”

And that’s when Konst hit the Fox host with a reminder about the pathetic polling results Trump received during his four years in office:

“That number, his poll right now is the highest Donald Trump ever reached in polls. So you might want to check those numbers too.”

When Faulkner asked if Konst had seen “all the polls,” the guest replied:

“81 million votes.”

Rather than try to counter Konst with any facts or data, Collins finally spoke up and whined:

“Here we go again! It’s just amazing. You know, I would hate to go to lunch with you because all you know to talk about is, I want the hamburger and by the way, Trump made a worse hamburger.”

But here’s what Collins failed to address: So far, Biden has held a polling average of 48%, according to Gallup. Trump, on the other hand, had an anemic polling average of 39% during his term in office.

Donald Trump is the worst president in the history of this country. It’s just that simple.

Here’s the video from Fox News:

Fox News GOP U.S. Senate WTF?!

Marsha Blackburn Tried To Lie About Gas Prices And Got Brutally Fact-Checked By A Fox Host

Someone needs to check and make sure that the blood supply which goes to the infrequently used brain that supposedly exists in the skull of Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) is actually connected, because she can’t even keep track of her own bullshit these days.

During an appearance on Fox News Monday, Blackburn again tried to suggest that President Joe Biden was to blame for the high price of gas in the United States, even though the real causes are related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the unchecked greed of Big Oil, according to The Daily Beast.

Host Sandra Smith asked the senator:

“Do we need to get tougher when it comes to sanctions, senator?”

Blackburn replied:

“Oh, yes, indeed. We need to be tougher with the economic sanctions, there should be sanctions on Nord Stream 2. Sandra, the way that [Russian President Vladmir] Putin is able to finance this war is because you’ve got France and Germany and other EU countries still buying oil and gas from Russia.”

Just one problem: Oil has never flowed through Nord Stream 2, so how in the world would sanctions do a damn bit of good?

But Blackburn was just getting warmed up with her talking points, none of which made any sense:

“You have to make certain that our allies and our partners are not buying oil and fuel from Russia. That is going to be an imperative. And go back and put those sanctions on Nord Stream 2. What would send the fastest message? Putting sanctions back on Nord Stream and say we are not going to let you do that.”

That’s when Smith called a time out to remind Blackburn gas has never flowed through Nord Stream 2:

“But some say that was not even a revenue source to begin with, that the gas wasn’t even currently flowing.

“Are you saying Nord Stream or Nord Stream 2? Because that was not money in Putin’s pocket to begin with.”

Rather than accept correction, Blackburn churned ahead, telling Smith:

“Sandra, what it does is provide certainty as to where we are going to be. And that is vitally important to do.”

What in the hell does that even mean?! It’s complete gibberish!

When Donald Trump said he loved the “poorly educated,” it’s hard to know if he was talking about the chumps who voted for him or the elected Republicans who comprise today’s GOP.

WATCH Jen Psaki Humiliate Peter Doocy When He Claims Kindergarten Kids Are Being Taught Sex-Ed

Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy was taken to the woodshed today and then shut down with facts by White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki when he asserted that kindergarten students in Florida were receiving sex education.

Doocy made reference to Florida’s controversial “Don’t Say Gay” law that completely prohibits any discussion of sexuality for young students attending schools in the Sunshine State:

“Does the White House support that kind of classroom instruction before kindergarten?”

That led Psaki to respond with a question of her own:

“Do you have examples of schools in Florida that are teaching kindergarteners about sex education?”

Doocy could only whine:

“I’m just asking.”

The press secretary then explained why she had asked for specifics instead of speculation:

“I think that’s a relevant question because I think this is a politically-charged harsh law that is putting parents and LGBTQ+ kids in a very difficult, heartbreaking circumstance. And so, I actually think that’s a pretty relevant question.”

It most certainly is a relevant question, if only because what Doocy asked is utterly irrelevant unless he can prove that the Florida law was needed because kindergarten-age kids were being taught about sex in the first place. They weren’t.

The Florida law serves only one purpose: To create a fake issue that Republicans can try to run on since they have no actual ideas about how to make the state of Florida or the country better.

WATCH President Biden Slap Down Peter Doocy For Requesting Details About US Military Policy Toward Russia

During a Q&A session with the White House press corps on Monday, President Joe Biden was asked by Fox reporter Peter Doocy for details about how the United States military would respond to actions such as the use of chemical weapons by Russian forces, and he got resoundingly slapped down by the president.

Doocy asked Biden:

“When you said that a chemical weapon use by Russia would trigger a response in kind…”

The president corrected Doocy:

“It would trigger a significant response.”

The Fox correspondent then followed up:

“What does that mean?”

That’s when the president took Doocy to the woodshed:

“I’m not going to tell you. Why would I tell you? You’ve gotta be silly!”

Doocy:

“The world wants to know.”

But Biden was more than ready for that comeback:

“The world wants to know a lot of things. I’m not telling them what the response would be. Then Russia knows the response.”

Erin Burnett Says Her Former Colleague Maria Bartiromo Has ‘Lost Her Way’

There was a time several years ago when Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo and CNN host Erin Burnett were working for the same network, CNBC.

Since then, Burnett has gone on to host an evening show on CNN while Bartiromo currently works for Fox News, where she regularly disseminates all sorts of bizarre right-wing conspiracy theories.

Speaking with David Axelrod on The Axe Files, Mediaite reports, Burnett said she truly believes that Bartiromo has “lost her way.”

“I always thought her greatest strength was that she was a hard worker and I feel that she lost her way. Clearly, she’s lost her way. I’m obviously not personally close to her, but I think it’s sad what has happened to be honest because she was a very hard worker.”

Axelrod asked Burnett if she thought the two were in direct competition with each other during their time together at CNBC. She responded:

“We definitely were, and I don’t know, maybe as life goes on I’ll get more perspective on it, I think there is a desire out there for there to be a women versus women thing. I hope that that’s lessened over time, but when I was there that was certainly part of it.”

Recently, Bartiromo had this to say on her show:

“Some people have told me … this administration does not see Putin as the enemy, they see him as a partner on many issues.”

Really? Then why is the Biden administration arming the Ukrainian freedom fighters and the president making it clear he sees Putin as a war criminal? Bartiromo’s comment sounds like something she made up and decided to share with faithful Fox viewers who believe whatever BS the network is selling.

Maria Bartiromo is a hack. And she hasn’t only lost her way. She clearly sold her soul the day she arrived at Fox.
