CNN reports, "Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and
Fox’s Sean Hannity exchanged
more than 80 text messages between Election Day 2020 and Joe Biden’s January 2021 inauguration, communications that show Hannity’s evolution from staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump’s election lies to being “fed up” with the “lunatics” hurting Trump’s cause in the days before January 6."
On the afternoon of Election Day, Hannity texted Meadows at 1:36 p.m. to ask about turnout in North Carolina. Two hours later, Meadows responded: “Stress every vote matters. Get out and vote. On radio.”
“Yes sir,” Hannity replied. “On it. Any place in particular we need a push.”
“Pennsylvania. NC AZ,” Meadows wrote, adding: “Nevada.”
“Got it. Everywhere,” Hannity said.
Politico reports, "Sean Hannity repeatedly tried to scale back Donald Trump’s effort to use the Jan. 6 session of Congress to overturn the 2020 election results, according to text messages between the Fox News host and former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows revealed publicly Tuesday."
“I do NOT see January 6 happening the way he is being told,” Hannity said of Trump’s efforts in a text on Dec. 31, 2020, to Meadows, obtained by the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack. Instead, Hannity told Meadows that Trump should go to Florida and become a vocal supporter of election reforms.
Is Fox a news organization or a political arm for the Republican Party?
I really can't believe the Donald Trump dominated Republican Party. The Republican Party has captured the minds of those who live in the rural counties of America. Trump's followers are mostly farmers and rural shopkeepers. They lack education and they are not well-informed. Most of what they know about politics is by word of mouth. They are unfamiliar with what happened on Jan. 6, 2021. They only know Trump is their savior. For obvious reasons they are not members of internet forums like this one.
This crowd has captured the GOP, and the Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, other GOP leaders, and the Republican ranks in Congress are all beholden to Donald Trump and his rural dominated uninformed followers.
Do we let them acquire the American government again?
