I don't want to ruin my day.

I'm guessing, however, that the coverage of MelaniaGate isn't nearly as extensive as it is on CNN/MSNBC.

I believe he watches FOX so I'm wondering what kind of deceptive garbage they're spewing.

I'm sorry!

Well, I can tell you that on the other news channels, whenever a Republican talks about this they look like they just swallowed a bug.

BUT not enough to turn on Fox!

I'm sure someone here is monitoring Fox today.

http://www.newshounds.us/fox_s_varney_complains_it_s_a_disgrace_for_socialist_media_to_cover_melania_trump_s_plagiarism_071916

"According to Fox’s Stuart Varney, the only reason the media is covering Melania Trump’s plagiarized convention speech is because it “wants America to be more like bankrupt, socialist Europe” and “to get us there as fast as possible.”

Varney was part of a dual effort to rehabilitate Melania Trump on Fox Business Network’s Mornings with Maria program today. Coincidentally, Varney and host Maria Bartiromo adopted the same strategy as the Trump campaign: pretend Trump’s plagiarism was a non-issue. As if they’d ever have shown any Democrat such forbearance."

So it's not Melania's fault for plagiarizing, it's the MSM's fault for covering it.
