Jerry Falwell Jr.: I Told Trump 'He Needs to Coin a New Term -- Fake Republicans'

by Josh Feldman | 10:18 pm, October 13th, 2017

Jerry Falwell Jr. told Sean Hannity tonight that President Trump should start using the phrase “fake Republicans.”

-snip-

Falwell and Robert Jeffress spoke tonight with Hannity, who pointed out how they’ve been criticized for their support of someone like Donald Trump. But he believes that “issues of faith matter to this President.”

Jeffress agreed, but went on to blast Republicans in the “do-nothing establishment” for obstructing the President’s agenda. Hannity said he doesn’t trust Republicans like Mitch McConnell or John McCain. Falwell made this observation:

“I spoke to the President last week and I told him he needs to coin a new term: Fake Republicans. Because that’s what those people you just named are. They’re not really Republicans. We don’t really have a majority in the Senate, and I think that would be a good term for him to start using.”

If they sink then they are fake, but if they float then they are real
