Why Does Lou Dobbs Have To Hate America In Order To Love Withdrawal From Paris Climate Agreement?

Fox Business host Lou Dobbs promoted Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement by suggesting that viewers should love it merely because “Dimms, Globalists & the Enviro-left” hate it.

In his online poll, Dobbs suggested his viewers should admire the climate decision by “pretty close to perfect” Trump because it upset the climate-agreement supporters:

#LDTPoll Does your week seem all the better because the Dimms, Globalists & the Enviro-left are having a lousy week?
— Lou Dobbs (@LouDobbs) June 1, 2017

As Mediaite noted, Dobbs has frequently employed this tactic because some Trump supporters “seem to care less about the substance of the decision” because they are “too busy reveling in the idea that it disappoints his opponents.”

The problem for Dobbs is that most of America disagrees with his adoration of Glorious Trump. He’s deeply unpopular, in general, and the overwhelming majority of Americans wanted the U.S to stay in the agreement. Rather than respect those views, much less honor them, Dobbs chose to deliberately smear and denigrate them.

In other words, Dobbs is putting his politics over patriotism or even common decency.

Perhaps even worse is how this kind of animosity toward fellow Americans by a news host seemed to whip up like-minded loathing in his viewers. Granted, the poll is not scientific but it probably is indicative of Dobbs’ followers.

Lou Dobbs hate mongering: It’s not just for people of color any more.

What I’m liking after the USA withdrawal is the confirmation of strong commitment to the Paris accord by governments, including those of the biggest polluters. If that commitment leads them to pass environmentally sound laws and regulations, the USA won’t be able to export its own stuff. The President also wants to impose tariffs on imports but that’s another opportunity for “tit-for-tat”. If the USA levies a tax on German cars (most of which are built in the USA anyway), Germany will probably levy a tax on American imports to Germany. I believe that’s called a trade war.

@EOF: I OD’d on Hannity (Cavuto, O’Reilly, and all the leggy blonds) a long time ago. However, I do believe that we ignore FOX at our own peril, so I keep up with them on this blog. Thanks Ellen, Richard, Brian, Priscilla and to all the posters. You guys help keep me sane.

I think I’ve about OD’d on Hannity. He’s driven crazy being Trump’s adoring champion.

Idiot Dobbs starts off mocking Dems for not being “inclusive” then hypocritically calls pretty much all of them “clowns” before taking a breath.

Just a pair Trump sycophants racing to see who can drop to their knees the quickest.

The building that host Hannie Pie’s little show is LEED certified. To put it bluntly, it’s a green building.

This News Horror skyscraper complies with environmental laws by reducing pollution and water usage, among others.

The masses can inform others through radio, tv, social media and columns.

Make both of these clowns look like fools.

It’s not even Dobb’s politics, it’s just his adolescent resentment of people who got into better schools than he did, or better jobs after school. It’s pure “mean girls” stuff.
