On Tuesday night, Sean Hannity applied his Fox Information platform to spew the usual MAGA election speaking details: The entire world is coming to an close and only a rich, fraudster scumbag can help save it. When Donald Trump demanded the Republican Celebration blow up the bipartisan border protection offer previously this month in purchase to be in a position to operate on there being no border safety offer, he still left the position of squaring that circle to sycophants like Hannity.
President Joe Biden and Trump have prepared appearances at the border Thursday. All through the fabricated border disaster panic phase of Hannity’s show, he attacked the information that Biden programs on browsing the border this Thursday, contacting it “a cynical political stunt by the president. And frankly, it is outside of disgraceful.”
Devoid of taking a breath, Hannity included, “And we will be at the border with President Trump on Thursday. His policies actually worked.” He will have to be chatting about Trump’s plan for alligator moats, proper?
Hannity’s double conventional for border wall appearances is a special form of cognitive dissonance. His general premise is that Biden is going to the border as a publicity stunt that is “disgraceful” due to the fact Biden hasn’t finished just about anything about it.
Recall when Biden, Senate Democrats, and Republicans launched a bipartisan border stability and Ukraine funding monthly bill that the Republican Household speaker declared would be “dead on arrival?” It’s possible Hannity’s neglected that. I question if he may well remember all of the many moments Republican officers have set up cameras at or close to the southern border of the United States in purchase to rating political details when doing absolutely nothing other than fundraising for by themselves.
There was the time Rep. Jim Jordan took his House Judiciary Committee out to the entry port of San Luis by a dam together the Colorado River for a “field hearing.”
And Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and his “Operation Lone Star” stunt forced 1000’s of troopers to the southern border and price tag so a great deal funds to … do a ton of very little.
Try to remember how previous Republican Gov. Doug Ducey of Arizona stunted at the border by stacking delivery containers as a makeshift wall? That useless little bit of spectacle price tag much more than $one hundred million to clean up up.
But of course, Biden is “beyond disgraceful.”
