Fox News Poll Affirms that America Overwhelmingly Supports Biden’s COVID Policies

In what has become a recurring circus of hypocrisies, Fox News has released a poll that contrasts sharply with their editorial positions on the coronavirus. The staunchly pro-COVID network routinely features commentaries from their hosts and guests that malign efforts to mitigate the harm caused by the virus, such as getting vaccinated and wearing face masks.

Joe Biden, GOP, Titanic

Fox News spent months downplaying the severity of the virus, in synchrony with Donald Trump’s deliberate pattern of deception. Trump and Fox News have even refused to promote common sense mitigation practices for fear of upsetting the Trump cult and/or benefitting President Biden.

However, the latest poll from Fox News reveals where the American people stand on Biden’s plan to defeat COVID. And it does not remotely match the anti-vaccine, anti-mask, malarkey peddled by the likes of Tucker Carlson (who says that vaccines don’t work), Sean Hannity (who steers viewers away from getting vaccinated), and Laura Ingraham (who mocks CDC guidelines). In fact, the results show that Biden’s plan – that was viciously disparaged on Fox News – is favored by significant majorities of the American people. for instance…

  • 69% believe face masks are effective
  • 65% believe vaccines are effective
  • 67% believe schools should require masks for teachers and students
  • 66% believe businesses should require masks for employees and customers
  • 61% support vaccine mandates for teachers
  • 58% support vaccine mandates for federal government employees
  • 55% support vaccine mandates for business employees
  • 56% favor requiring businesses with 100+ employees to require vaccination or weekly testing
  • 54% favor requiring proof of vaccination to participate in indoor activities
  • 55% approve of Biden’s overall handling of the pandemic

These numbers show that most Americans are not fooled by the Fox News lies and disinformation. They have the common sense to do the right thing. And Democrats should be encouraged by the support for Biden’s initiatives. In fact, they should run hard on these results and challenge Republicans to defend their pro-COVID positions. After all, almost all of the new cases, hospitalizations and fatalities are among the unvaccinated. And that means they are mostly among Fox News viewers and Trump Republicans.

Separately, Fox News also released a poll on the human infrastructure legislation proposed by Biden and Democrats in Congress. It found that the $3.5 trillion bill is favored 56% to 39%. Also, Biden’s overall job rating is 50% approval, despite a rash of bad news about the Delta variant surge, and the Afghanistan withdrawal.

These polls are further evidence of the strength of the Democratic agenda going into the 2022 midterm elections. And Democrats need to recognize that strength and use it to push a blue wave of voters in November of next year.

Eric Trump Whines to Fox News About Getting ‘Subpoena After Subpoena After Subpoena’

There aren’t very many things that are more pathetic than a trust fund billionaire baby bawling on national television because he thinks he has been so grossly mistreated by the powerful elitist class that he has always been a part of – or hoped to be. But that’s the spectacle of doleful victimhood playing out on Fox News by Eric Trump, spawn of Donald.

Fox News, Maria Bartiromo, Eric Trump

Little Eric was “interviewed” by Fox’s Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo. The segment began with Bartiromo and Trump reanimating a zombie story about Hillary Clinton and slandering her without a smidgen of evidence. That segued into a defense of the vaccine expertise of Dr. Nicki Minaj and her cousin’s friend’s swollen testicles. And in between the pair pontificated on “the problem with the Democrats…”

“The problem with the Democrats is they dig so deep that they always find themselves. And the reason I’m frustrated about this is every single day since my father ran for president, my father and our entire family and our company has been under investigation. Every single day, Maria, we get subpoena after subpoena after subpoena.”

If Eric is disturbed that he and his crime family have received so many subpoenas, he might want to try committing fewer crimes. After all, the Trumps have already been found guilty of a cornucopia of corruption from running a crooked charitable foundation to operating a sham university, and so much more. But Eric still hadn’t sufficiently expunged his paranoia and wrath. He continued…

“I mean, they [Democrats] weaponized the entire system in this country. They’ve weaponized the DOJ. They’ve weaponized our military. They weaponized the educational system in this country. They’ve weaponized the medical system in this country. The Democrats weaponize absolutely everything they can to use again their political opponents.”

This is textbook projection on Eric’s part. His father planted shameless sycophants in Cabinet posts and White House positions, including his daughter and son-in-law, Ivanka and Jared Kushner. And he tasked them with missions of vengeance against his foes, political and personal. President Biden has done none of that, and Eric conspicuously failed to provide a single example.

However, Eric did declare his support for another Trump campaign for the White House. After a leading question by Bartiromo that alleged some vague but rampant corruption in Washington, she asked if Eric wanted daddy to run again. Sleazy E replied

“You know, I do. Because, honestly, he’s the only person who can save this country. And it is an incredibly corrupt system. I see it every single day. It’s incredibly corrupt. My father returned respect to this country.”

Once again, Donald Trump is held up as the Great Messiah who is the sole savior of humanity. Never mind that in his First Coming he nearly destroyed the nation by mismanaging the deadly COVID pandemic. killing more than a half million Americans. He tanked the economy throwing millions out of work and bankrupting thousands of small businesses. He divided the nation with his overtly racist rhetoric and support for white nationalists. Then he sought to stage a coup and crush democracy (which he’s still trying to do) because he couldn’t handle being a big loser.

Naturally, Fox News is aiding and abetting the Trump crusade to undermine democracy and our constitutional republic. Even though Trump himself has taken to lambasting Fox as a part of the “lamestream media,” the network continues to provide a platform for Trump and his brand of lies and disinformation. It’s what they were created to do, and thus it ever will be.

UPDATE 1/26/2022: Eric Trump was eventually deposed by New York Attorney General Letitia James. He invoked the Fifth Amendment 500 times. As a reminder, his father famously declared that “the mob takes the Fifth Amendment. If you’re innocent why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?”
