There’s probably nobody on Fox News who hates President Barack Obama more than retired Army officer and Fox News Strategic Analyst Ralph Peters. Judging from his comments today, Peters doesn’t seem to like Hillary Clinton much more. But she’s better than Donald Trump, Peters announced on Fox Business.
Host Stuart Varney, a Trump supporter, started by promoting the bogus NY Post story about Clinton’s maid printing out classified emails. (In fact, they were not classified until years after they were printed out).
“Her behavior was and remains inexcusable,” Peters readily agreed about Clinton. But then the guy who got suspended from Fox for calling Obama a “total pussy,” who blew the “secret Muslim” dog whistle, saying he’s ‘waiting’ for Obama to start “Jihadi Lives Matter” and called him the “reincarnation of Pontius Pilate” declared that he’s going to vote for Obama’s successor.
PETERS: Stuart, I think Hillary Clinton is despicable. She has committed criminal acts, she’s greedy, she’s corrupt and yes, I’m going to vote for her. I’m going to vote for Republicans down the ballot but I’m voting for Hillary Clinton because it’s a vote against Donald Trump. I don’t want Moscow’s man in the White House.
My concern – look, I know I could be a lot more popular this morning if I say, “Oh, Trump’s a messiah. I’m going to vote for him.” This is about the future of our country. It’s about our security. Here’s a guy who apologizes for everything Vladimir Putin does, makes crazy remarks about NATO, about Syria, about nukes, about the Mosul offensive and oh, by the way, about foreign trade.
[…] Look, Hillary Clinton’s domestic policies repel me. She’s awful. But she’s safer for this country’s security than Donald Trump. And I think Vladimir Putin has a deep hold on Trump and we should all be much more alarmed than we are.
That may be the endorsement of the year.

No nonsense at my precinct. Little old lady handing out sample ballots wearing “Make America Great Again” ball cap was about the extent of the partisanship. Keep in mind I’m in a bright red precinct that goes ~70% GOP. My Congressional district is so rabidly right-wing we’re the ones who famously booted Eric Cantor for Tea Party nutjob Dave Brat.
It was odd when I left ~6:10 AM a state trooper was driving up to the polls and when I got home (I pass my poll which is an elementary school around the corner) a state trooper car was still in the parking lot.
A co-worker’s daughter here in Virginia got intimidated by a Trump supporter who got into her face screaming when she picked up a Hillary sticker on exiting her polling place.
I’ll be glad when this crazy election is over.
If you see horseshit, don’t hesitate to call the state Democrat committee.

I want to thank you for posting the link to MMFA regarding the bogus Fox News meme nasty woman and security threat Hillary Clinton let her maid print classified material. I hadn’t researched it myself but was confident it was bulls—t because the rest of the media isn’t touching it which is typically the first sign Fox News is making s—t up again.
“Fox & Friends” pimped this lie so hard yesterday morning Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade were raging about all those drone strike emails handymen, pizza delivery drivers, et al visiting the Clinton residence were reading. If you’re going to pitch a lie go full hysteria to really sell it, Fox!
Today is the last day for “fair and balanced” Fox News and FBN to line up their usual suspects like Peters to pile on the hate and fear of Hillary Clinton until ballots are cast. Thank goodness though the reality is after Hillary gets elected today, Fox’s angst will probably even get worse so the next couple of weeks will be a lot of far-right and alt-right venting on the Fox properties.
It’s 5:17 AM EST. I’m over half way through my wake-up cup of coffee. In about 5-6 minutes I’ll be trekking up the hill to line up at my polling station for its 6 AM grand opening.
I’m confident Hillary will take my swing state of Virginia.
