Americans were shocked to learn that John McCain and one of his top aides participated in trying to frame Donald Trump for Russian collusion.
Donald Trump called it an act of betrayal.
But what one Fox News host said in reaction about John McCain will leave your jaw on the ground.
Fake News reporters in the so-called “mainstream” media pretended to be horrified that President Trump would point out McCain’s role in spreading the Russia Collusion Hoax.
Their only real interest was driving a wedge between Trump and other Republicans.
But conservatives could not believe the reaction of Fox News host Neil Cavuto.
Cavuto took Republican Senators to task for not standing up to Trump because they were afraid of ending up on the wrong end of a Presidential tweet storm.
Mediaite reports Cavuto saying:
“Maybe these guys figure it is really not worth the fight. Maybe they calculate you rip him back, he will just rip you to shreds; rarely in person, more coldly, more consistently, via tweet,” said Cavuto, nodding to the time former State Secretary Rex Tillerson found out he lost his job through Twitter, and how Mike Pompeo timidly jokes that the same will happen to him…
…Cavuto compared the Republican response to Trump to the abusive relationship between spouses who won’t defend themselves in order to avoid conflict. He added Republicans’ usual response has become “no response,” and their silence has become “deafening.”
“Just ask Jeff Sessions, a punching bag while in office, until he ultimately lost his office,” said Cavuto. “A lot of these guys just swallow their pride and keep taking the hits, hoping the machine gun threatening fire out of the White House will find another target.”
Cavuto said the are probably making the calculation to be silent “no matter how much it hurts you or demeans you, or makes average folks wonder whether there is any backbone to you.”
Cavuto was buying in to the fake news lies.
President Trump wasn’t demeaning John McCain’s military record.
Donald Trump simply stated the unquestioned fact that McCain and his aides participated in the coup against him by trying to convince the media and the FBI to buy in to the Russian collusion hoax.
McCain bought into the fake-news Christopher Steele dossier hook, line, and sinker.
Trump has every right to point this out.
The fake news media – many of whom are now claiming it is un-American to criticize John McCain – had no issue with Democrats savaging McCain in the most personal terms in during the 2008 election when he ran against Barack Obama.
And Fox News Neil Cavuto buying in to this junk so shows the powerful ability of the fake news to create a false narrative out of thin air and have people who should know better buy in.
We will keep you up-to-date on any new developments in this ongoing story.

Apparently, Cavuto has gone to the “dark side” — He has been doing this for a while and he gets turned off in our house when he comes on.

Just like most on the “dark side” he is always interfering with his guest trying to respond to the question he asked of them. He seems to try to get them to respond the way he wants not really the way they are trying to answer in their own manner. Many of my contacts feel the same way about his leading to the left. We are also switching to other channels when he comes on. I have tried to send a response directly to him but never happen chance of response back. I like Varney & Co, Daily Ledger, Tipping Point, Hannity, Tucker Carlson and others much better.

I detested John McCain. I have never considered him to be a hero. He despised Trump for winning the Presidency and he was very angry with the American voters who put Trump in office. He truly felt that this country owed him that Presidency. WELL, WE DID NOT.
I IKE cAVUTTO BUT HE IS DEAD WRONG ABOUT THIS.

I always felt that President Nixon should not have pardoned McCain & his TREASON…….He should have been in prison all those years……….But then that is what those dumb DEM/RINOS do, they actually want all those idiot politicians to serve the USA LEGAL CITIZENS…
