“”Fox News held a town hall event with Buttigieg, who is in third place among the more than two dozen candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination. (The Blaze) "They're putting more Democrats on than you have Republicans," Trump lamented. "I did want to watch, you always have to watch the competition, if you want to call it," Trump continued. "And he was knocking the hell out of Fox and Fox has put him there. Someone's going to have to explain the whole Fox deal to me."
“On Sunday the president scorned Fox News from his Twitter account in a pair of angry missives. (The Blaze) "Hard to believe that @FoxNews is wasting airtime on Mayor Pete, as Chris Wallace likes to call him. Fox is moving more and more to the losing (wrong) side in covering the Dems," he tweeted.”Much worse than that, Fox News is giving major ‘town hall’ publicity to Sen. Bernie Sanders who currently seeks the Socialist takedown of America, Mr. President. It was back in March when the Democratic National Committee (DNC) decided to forbid Fox News from hosting any of the Democratic presidential debates. “DNC Chairman Tom Perez stated that Fox is “not in a position to host a fair and neutral debate,” following a report alleging journalistic malfeasance from the New Yorker.

“Democrat (read Socialist) presidential hopefuls don’t so much get standing ovations at Fox News’ ‘Town Halls’—they bring them with them. (Canada Free Press, May 20, 2019) “This is how Fox News brass explains the network’s change in attitude: “Our attitude has been, ‘Let’s do some town halls but be selective about it,’” Bill Sammon, Fox’s senior vice president of news, told the Washington Post last week. “There are two dozen candidates. We’re not going to get to all of them. That’s just reality. So let’s carefully select the promising candidates and space them out a bit. We’re not going to put them on every night or five in one night. We’ll do it every couple or three weeks and have an impact.”

"Alfred E. Newman” Buttigieg will never be President!" President Trump concluded in a weekend tweet. (The Blaze) “The town hall on Fox News for Buttigieg got twice as many viewers as his event on CNN.”But Pete-Alfred-E.-Newman-Buttigieg is so much dandelion fluff compared to Senator Bernie Sanders and what Fox News did for him. In an era where four out of 10 Americans approve of Socialism and one in which the ‘Progressive’ Dems have jumped into the tank with the Sanders-led Justice Democrats, Fox News garnered Sanders some 2.6 million viewers in their first town hall. That’s a lot of exposure for a Socialist in the prelude to Election 2020. If on-the-fringe-of-the-fringe Democrat primary candidate Buttigieg is Alfred E. Newman, Sanders is the resurrection of Karl Marx, and if he wins the DNC nomination and the 2020 presidency, the end of America.
And it is for sure that the Town Hall meme will continue over at Fox News where you can count on anti-Trump screeds from Chris Wallace, including his recent criticisms of Barr, the political advice of ex-DNC chair Donna Brazile, and the odd pot shots from the likes of Judge Andrew Napolitano, and most recently Brit Hume, with anti-Trumpster Neil Cavuto bringing up the rear. (Canada Free Press, May 20, 2019) “Nor should anyone forget that just before the Fox ‘Town Hall’ brouhaha, the network claimed in a poll—of 1,000 Americans—that most Americans trust Robert Mueller III more than they do Attorney General William Barr”.
