“Even though he’s entitled to his opinions, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts”
During a broadcast of Donald Trump’s speech at a “Get Out the Vote” rally in Rock Hill, South Carolina on Friday evening, Fox News host Neil Cavuto cut into the footage to point out inaccuracies in what was being said by the former president and 2024 Republican frontrunner.
Taking issue with Trump claiming credit for the market going up while, in the same breath, blaming Biden for inflated gas prices and whatever else, Cavuto said, “We’ll continue monitoring the president’s remarks and I mean no offense to him or some of you who might want to continue to hear him, but I did have to say that even though the former president is entitled to his opinions, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts.”
It’s true. Time and time again these fools are radicalizing their base, and then when it gets out of hand they can’t rein it in and it bites them.
Fox and a handful of right-wing politicians made radicalizing into a profitable business that’s not regulated and freely available to anyone with no scruples and an imagination.
Let’s not forget social media companies and their algorithms that take advantage of human psychology to drive profits. Not helping.
