Trump Hated the Fact that Fox News Hosted Bernie Sanders

In the beautiful brain of our sundowning President, everything that doesn’t go as expected is rigged by the Democrats. Bernie Sanders’ triumphant town hall on Fox News was, of course, no different.

In a tweet this morning, Trump seemed to suggest that his favorite network may be slipping into the hands of the Democratic deep state, with a planted “audience” of non-authentic Fox watchers.

So weird to watch Crazy Bernie on @FoxNews. Not surprisingly, @BretBaier and the “audience” was so smiley and nice. Very strange, and now we have @donnabrazile?

In all fairness, the crowd did not act in a typical Fox fashion. When host Bret Baier attempted to show Bernie that people did not want to transition from their private health insurance agency to a government-run system, like Medicare for All, it severely backfired: the Fox News audience went nuts in support of single-payer.

Fox News tried to prove that people like our dysfunctional, profit-driven health care system. But they couldn’t hide the truth: the American people want Medicare for All. pic.twitter.com/d40vOHIWqd

So was Bernie’s town hall the scene of a rare DNC infiltration into the far-right network? Or is the wild popularity of Crazy Bernie’s policies simply sending Trump into a frenzy, as he tries to find something he can throw at him?
