The Daily Show gave Fox’s Trump lapdogs a perfect comedic comeuppance for complaining that media coverage of Biden isn’t tough enough.
Well done, Daily Show. We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
Do make sure to watch to the end where, for once, Jeanine Pirro gets it exactly right.
Do you like this post?

At risk of being accused of fawning, may I take this opportunity to say that I like what I’ve seen during the first two weeks of the new administration?
Their preparedness reminds me of something I learned long ago about the American and French revolutions, both of which introduced innovative approaches to government that have stood the test of time (the period of terror France, notwithstanding). Namely that the activists of the time had spent decades discussing and working out the practical aspects of what they actually would do were they to succeed in overturning the monarchies. They were ready to rumble as from day 1.
Elsewhere, I read comments that complained about Biden being dull and boring. I don’t mind that one bit, if they are competent. I can always go to the cinema or the TV for not-dull and not-boring.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so to speak.
The perception of what constitutes “respect” or “fawning” depends a lot on who’s being talked about. For a host on Fox(not)News, Trump could do no wrong, ever!, and Biden will never be perceived as doing anything right. IF only they’d be less hypocritical about their double standard.
The new administration has been in office for less than a week and the foxies are acting as though Biden had a magic wand. Bewildering.

One difference is that Biden doesn’t openly coach interviewers on how to gush over him.
No, Jesse, the MSM has actually never come close to fawning over anyone “like he’s Jesus Christ”, but Fox guests have deemed Trump to be hand-picked by God and, regrettably not shown in the above video, Lou Dobbs really did suggest that Trump might be greater than Lincoln.
