A Fox News anchor and a right-wing pundit freaked out on their liberal on-air guest when he merely stated a fact about Trump and Nick Fuentes dining together. Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner and star pundit Tammy Bruce were absolutely apoplectic on Monday when a Democratic on-air guest reminded them how Donald Trump once dined with an avowed neo-Nazi. During a standard Fox News panel segment on President Joe Biden falling behind Trump in 2024 presidential polling, Faulkner brought up Saturday Night Live’s latest cold open, which mocked Biden and his Democratic allies for claiming he is extremely sharp amid rising concerns about his advanced age. Faulkner, who laughed throughout the clip, and Bruce giddily suggested the clip proves Biden is losing support. “Comedy is a remarkably important political statement, and when you have lost Saturday Night Live, when they are ridiculing you, the audience in New York is laughing hysterically, that is another sign that things perhaps might be lost,” the conservative pundit noted. Democratic strategist Jonathan Kott, meanwhile, asserted that the Biden associates he’s spoken with insist that the president “takes meetings long into the night” and is “very detail-oriented.” The former comms chief for Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) then made a bold comparison to Biden’s predecessor. “I would say this, I would rather have a president who maybe has a stutter once in a while than one who spews conspiracy theories, racist nonsense, and has dinner with Nazis,” Kott declared. “If given the choice between one or the other, I’m happy Joe Biden might misspeak once in a while when he’s trying to name a president of a foreign country.” After Faulkner shot back that “nobody had picked on” Biden for his well-known speech impediment, Bruce jumped in and took issue with Kott’s reference to Trump’s meal shared with neo-Nazi activist Nick Fuentes.
