Media Blasts Greta Van Susteren’s 'Meet The Trumps' Special

Greta Van Susteren’s “Meet the Trumps” special was just as awful as I predicted. The only saving grace was some of the hilariously snarky criticism.

Media Matters did a roundup so I didn’t have to. Some of my favorite reactions:

Van Susteren's brief introduction to each member of the family told you all you need to know. For example, when she introduced ex-model Melania Trump, Van Susteren gushed, "Take a look at her!" Of course, there was no mention of the raunchy photo of Melania posing in a thong and pointing a gun that has recently resurfaced on the internet. There was also "big shot in the Trump organization" Donald Trump, Jr. as well as "business mogul" Ivanka Trump "and get this: She's a mother, too!"

You can watch the nauseating spectacle below, from the May 26 On The Record. It's very brief so you'll probably be able to keep your lunch down.

Richard M, the Fairness Doctrine would have never applied to Faux (cable). But I like the sentiment anyway.

Any creepy video of Trump with a boner while daughter Ivanka sat on daddy’s lap? Just ask’n. 😉

Last go around, pimping the Mormon family as clean and wholesome folk probably wasn’t as tough sledding as this is gonna be. Aside from the dirty magical underwear here and there, they didn’t have Melania’s butt cheeks hanging out there.

Van Suckup’s infomercial with Long Dong Donald & Family was so bad it was almost hilarious. Greta has not been this much in love since she was slow dancing with the Tundra Princess at the Wasilla mobile home park.

Democrats on fox news are like the Washington Generals. A pro Basketball team that was paid well to make the Globetrotters look good! They scored a few baskets but they knew who buttered there bread! They almost always Lost!

This reminds me of ace, hard-hitting (of Dems only) FOX News journalist Bret Baier’s specials in the Dubya years.

Ever witness “Rumsfeld at War”? Inspired, no doubt, by Bret’s twin loves of anything Republican and Leni Riefenstahl films.

Bret also did some Dubya spotlight specials that were like viewing a dyed-in-the-wool fanboy chatting with a hero or star he’s loved and admired since childhood. Too bad Bret begging for Dubya’s autograph occurred during a commercial break.

They look like a cross between a false successful Amway magazine cover family and the Adams family. It’s great how you can achieve anything you set your mind to, especially if your Dad is a billionaire and everything in life is laid on.

You can’t white wash orange.

I dunno why GVS even bothered to shoot any new footage for this special: sounds like all she had to do was re-run one of her many fawning “specials” that starred The Tundra Princess, Sarah Palin, and her ~~trailer park crew~~ family, and simply digitally add in the Drumpfs’ faces . . .

Greta, the Scientologist freak-show, was practically massaging the entire Trump family with her tongue.
She was starstruck and it was nauseatingly obvious.
