Fox Guest: Govt. Shutdown ‘A Nice Vacation’ For Workers ‘Because They Weren’t Allowed To Spend The Money’

Posted by Brian -5pc on January 02, 2019 · Flag

Fox guest Stephen Guilfoyle not only suggested to Fox viewers that the Trump Government Shutdown is no big deal, he suggested it was a big favor to the government employees not getting paid.

Guilfoyle visited Fox’s Your World show today where he was presented as one of three “market watchers” discussing the shutdown. “For investors, it’s not a big deal,” Guilfoyle said. “We go through this regularly and the people who are out of work end up getting paid back pay, so it ends up being a nice vacation ‘cause they weren’t allowed to spend the money while they were on vacation.”

Guilfoyle did have some sympathy for day traders: “The only guys this really impacts, short term, is the day traders. But you’ll see these 400, 500 point swings based on every single headline,” he complained.

To his credit, host Neil Cavuto challenged the heartlessness. If the shutdown “were to drag on for a while,” he said, “some of those workers would disagree. They might get paid later, contractors that feed and work with them are potentially not gonna get paid at all.”

In fact, the shutdown will hurt more people each day it continues.

Watch Guilfoyle’s heartlessness below, from the January 2, 2019 Your World.

You really have to wonder about the criteria Fox producers work to when choosing contributors. This guy is so divorced from actual real life, I’d be amazed if he has ever had to work with a household budget.

Well, Bill O’Reilly wasn’t there to suggest they just move, so someone had to make a callous, low-IQ comment about how bad this has already hurt many of them, and how the ones with the checks/savings to take a small hit will be feeling it in a few days, as well.

God, does Fox News care about anything but their politics being in charge? Most criminal sociopaths at least care about one thing other than their mission, but you don’t see that out of anyone at Fox.

The government shutdown will be a big deal once it starts to impact residents in the Midwest and the southern states.

Sarge will eat his words for lunch.
