Fox’s Ainsley Earhardt Hawks Ways For (Clinton) Voters To Change Their Early Votes

Fox News’ Ainsley Earhardt did her part to get out the vote for Donald Trump today by promoting ways for early voters (who have trended Democratic) to change their minds. She didn’t mention the latest developments in the Clinton emails that Fox has been exploiting, but they could never be far from any Fox News watcher’s mind.

Earhardt, a blatant Trump sycophant on Fox, didn’t mention that the early vote so far favors Democrats. Somehow, she also controlled herself from explicitly arguing that the latest email developments mean voters should change their minds. Instead, she feigned neutrality in her introduction and just suggested that people would if they could.

EARHARDT: Millions – 22.5 to be exact, 22.5 million people – have already cast their ballots in the 2016 election. But what if you have had a bad case of voter’s remorse and you’ve already voted? A Google search for the words “change early vote” has spiked in recent days.

“Here to explain the options” was guest Erin McPike. And she just happened to highlight Pennsylvania, a swing state where Clinton has been leading in the polls.

“That is one of the states that Donald Trump has been saying is a must-win state for him,” McPike chirped. She sounded just like somebody auditioning for a Fox News job.

According to Fox, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan also allow voters to change their votes. I lost track of the number of times Earhardt and/or a graphic on the screen reminded us about that. We also got instructions from McPike on the subject.

But just in case anyone missed what Earhardt was up to, she asked, “Donald Trump is really campaigning hard in these states. Will he be able to change some of these blue minds to red?”

“It’s possible,” McPike assured her. “I think the state to watch, really, is Pennsylvania.”

In other words, probably not.

Never mind the palm oil trade – how many orangutans/honey badgers had to die to keep The Ugliest American so gorgeously coiffed he can’t venture out of doors without a brain-squeezing cap??

Actually, I did read somewhere that Trump’s hair specialist (lives in the same building) charges the great dunce $20-25,000 PER MONTH. (Really truly)

JM, but the hair color matches. The Donald has the disposition of I’m not sure what kind of critter found in nature. Not the African Honey Badger, the animal with the meanest, toughest attitude on Earth.

Desperation City! I’m sure you could count the number of Clinton voters who SUDDENLY feel the need go through all the rigmarole involved in flipping to The Bigliest Loser™ on the fingers of one foot.

P.S. Orangutans are lovely. Real ones, that is.

Ainsley asks, “What if you have a bad case of voter’s remorse and you’ve already voted?”.

Uhhh,…..yeah Ainsley, in the primaries an orangutan was somehow chosen by one side. I’m sure a good many voters are now very remorseful.

Cubs up 9-2. Bottom of the ninth. Chicago is gonna sell a LOT of beer.

This is a clear indication of where the Fox News mindset is right now. They know that Clinton is ahead in the early voting, and they are frantic to turn that advantage around. They are also frantic to suppress the non-white vote. When this is all over a week from now, I believe they’ll once again be in the position of trying to figure out how they alienated so many people. Behavior like this would be a good place for them to start their self-analysis.
