Fox’s ‘Democratic Strategist’ Sanders Supporter Is Really A Donald Trump Operative

Posted by Ellen -7835.60pc on June 11, 2016 · Flag

Shocker! Harlan Hill, the so-called Bernie Sanders supporter, also identified as a “Democratic strategist” on Fox News, turns out to be a Donald Trump operative.

Hill has appeared many times on Fox News and Fox Business recently, usually identified as a “Democratic strategist” supporting Bernie Sanders:

In fact, we posted yesterday about Hill’s appearance on Your World on Monday, June 6, where he was paired with Danielle McLaughlin, a Hillary Clinton supporter, to discuss the California primary coming up the next day and efforts by Democrats to have Sanders concede the nomination and get behind Clinton.

In his appearances, Hill has repeatedly suggested he’d support Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton. But that day had already come on Monday. On June 3, several days before he appeared with McLaughlin on Your World, Hill had already tweeted, in a pinned tweet, that “next week,” he would launch “@TrumpDems.”

During that subsequent June 6 Your World interview, Hill was first introduced as a “Sanders supporter.” But host Stuart Varney later said to Hill, “You used to be a Bernie Sanders supporter. You’re not now.” That was it as far as cluing in the viewers of the "We report, you decide" network as to who and what Hill really is.

As Hill replied, the lower-third banner read, “DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST.”  He also said, “At what cost do we want to win this election?” It was a deliberate suggestion that he was still acting as a Democrat. He went on to accuse Clinton of being “a neocon” and “to the right of Donald Trump” in hawkishness and foreign policy. Nobody disclosed his current affiliation.

Hill also said, as if he were a Sanders insider, that Sanders would not drop out if he lost the California primary the next day.

However, I seriously doubt this dissembling will put a dent in Hill’s Fox News hits. To the contrary, I expect we’ll see a lot more of this “Democrat for Trump” in the days to come.

Watch Hill again on the June 6 Your World and then watch the mashup video found on the “TrumpDems” website that features “Democratic strategist” and “Sanders supporter” Hill attacking Clinton. That video was posted to YouTube on June 2, four days earlier.

Fox News, the ultimate fake news site.

Thanx mj.

At least he is NOT a BLOND talking head !! Why am I not surprised that Faux would LIE with a Guest who was a fraud. It is expected from an entertainment channel.
Yes Faux is NOT a News channel just as the Canadian Government.

So when Faux is showing a republican being led off in handcuffs while their bottom of the screen scrawl identifies the handcuffed one as a democrat, Faux claims, “Oops!! We made a mistake.”. OK. They can plausibly get away with that, even though they’ve pulled it a hundred times.

But this wearing of the bowtie kinda makes me pissed off. They’ve thoughtfully have added an extra layer of deceit in their skullduggery. In a court of law that would count for something going the extra mile to decieve.

@ Bemused: “A query: what’s today’s equivalence of ‘a broken record’. That saying must have gone out with vinyl.”

I was going to say “a skipped CD”, but the CD has largely gone out, too.

“A looped MP3”, perhaps?

Harlin would have tweeted earlier in the week he’s all-in for #WhinyLittleBitch The Donald but he was too busy occupied on his honeymoon with Pat Caddell. ;^)

Spy School for republicans???!! Please don’t give them any more ideas on how to be underhanded. They will take it rather than try and get votes the old fashioned way. By convincing voters of the rightfulness of their cause.

The bowtie is not the Tucker Carlson look. It is the traditional apparel of a dyed in the wool democrat.

Looks like a real weasel.

I’m not surprised one little bit: he had the Trump talking points down pat (i.e. word for word). Fox should give these people a bit of training in how to paraphrase the talking points with a view to avoid sounding like a broken record.

A query: what’s today’s equivalence of “a broken record”. That saying must have gone out with vinyl.

That Hill is a Drumpf supporter/operative shouldn’t come as too much of a shock: as the second photo above shows, he’s got the _ucker Carlson bowtie look down pat . . .
