Et tu, Fox and Friends?

Two days before his summit with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, Trump declared that the mainstream media would fake news the heck out of his meeting.  He assured everyone that he would not be treated fairly.  It was a good thing you could get the real, fair and balanced word on the situation from Fox News.  If you wanted the real inside dope on Helsinki, Fox News wouldn’t steer you wrong.  So what did Fox News have to say regarding Trump’s meeting?  Abby Huntsman, one of the hosts of Fox and Friends, Trump’s favorite show, said that he was “throwing his own people under the bus”. Brian Kilmeade, another host of the show said his rhetoric was “ridiculous”.  In fact, all across the network, Fox News was breaking ranks to voice their dissent, that is until you get to Prime Time editorial shows.  Sean Hannity was sure to try and spin this the best way he could, by bringing Trump on to clarify the things he said, but even Hannity could hide his obvious discomfort at some of the things Trump was saying that night.  Trump may have tried to backtrack on his positions the next day, but you can’t stuff that monster back in it’s box.
