Fox Guest Gushes 'Trump Is The Power Of Positive Thinking'
This was gag-inducing, even for Fox. Charlie Hurt goes into full Dear Leader mode while pretending Trump is going to suddenly become some great "unifier" following the assassination attempt.
Here's the back and forth between Hurt and host Harris Faulkner during some of their pre-RNC coverage, making the ridiculous assertion that Biden is no longer allowed to attack Trump if there's another debate, and pretending Trump is capable of unifying anyone other than his hardcore MAGA cult base.
FAULKNER: And some of the problems don't go away. I mean, you heard in that interview that we've played this hour, that exclusive sit down with Donald Trump from Mar-a-Lago the same day that the attempt on his life was made, he said, look, I'm ready to debate. And the question remains, would Joe Biden really go into that fold again?
And now it's really going to be about policy. And it's really going to be about a unification message from Donald Trump. He can't just take those punches that we've heard Biden make and say, well, I'm going to take them around back. You can't, you can't go there now.
HURT: You know, and the concept of unity is such an elusive thing, and it seems so impossible to us considering the politics we've seen over the past couple of years. But you know, if there's a guy that's like in the business of impossible, it's like Donald Trump. And when he sits there and he tells you that “People tell me that if, you know, George Washington and Abe Lincoln ran against me, I would beat them.”
