Fox Business Network's Dagen McDowell mocked Bernie Sanders supporters with the kind of derision she’d almost certainly never show toward Trump supporters.
As a guest on The Greg Gutfeld show, McDowell showed blatant disgust for Sanders supporters as she discussed their purported role in violence at Donald Trump rallies:
McDowell:When Bernie eventually has to step out of this race, where do you think that all of his loser supporters are gonna go? They’re either gonna be in their dorm rooms, smoking that cool bong that they just bought with - attached to a gas mask, or they’re gonna be at a Trump rally.
And it’s gonna get worse. Although if you’re stoned, I guess you wouldn’t be violent, which is a positive.
Yeah, real positive. And real fair and balanced.

So here we have Dagen acting like a little Ann Coulter. Saying outrageous insults for attention realizing FOX’s geezer audience are looking across a gaping generation gap.
Of course, the backdrop is Gutfeld’s comedy show so I’m sure it’s an attempt at being funny. As I noted in a previous comment, conservative humor tends to be meanness directed at their political foes and completely devoid of wit, timing, or anything else associated with professional comedians or quality satire.
It amazes me how lazy and crappy so much of the cheap pundit shows on FOX are yet they dominate the ratings. Shows like “The Five” and “Outnumbered”. It makes me think FOX News could display a static screen saying “Hillary sucks” (with a news alert warning flashing, naturally) and it’d win the Nielsen’s. 😉
