The propagandists on Fox & Friends Weekend with the most ridiculous takeaway yet on the Trump-Musk fallout.
We had Hannity complaining that the rest of the media was reporting on the fallout at all, which Fox was desperate to ignore until it became apparent that was going to be impossible.
Now we’ve got them doing their best to downplay it, and here’s the latest spin from Charlie Hurt, Lisa Boothe and Brian Brenberg this Saturday:
BRENBERG: So let’s, should we talk about what are they calling it the big beautiful breakup, the big beautiful beef?
HURT: Yeah, I like the big beautiful beef.
BRENBERG: My kids always say I’ve got a beef with you, right? That’s their line to me.
HURT: Rappers are always beefing.
BRENBERG: Is that what they do? Is that what they say as well?
So you’ve got this, you’ve got this breakup, this beef, call it what you want. The press was asking President Trump about it on Air Force One yesterday. Here’s what he had to say.
(Cut to Trump saying he’s not really thinking about Musk because he’s too busy with other things.)
Okay, so we’re clearly at the phase where some parts of the press just want to try to make this worse and worse, and so they throw every, you know, the key and, and the Tesla, are you gonna give that back.
