O'Reilly Thinks Hatred Towards Trump Has Reached Dangerous Level
Democrats and others who oppose President Trump are getting carried away with their “hatred,” according to Bill O’Reilly.
Breitbart News reported that the host of “The O’Reilly Factor” on Fox News called for civility during his show on Wednesday. “Here’s a question I would like posed to the American people,” he said. “Do you believe that the hatred towards President Trump has reached a dangerous level in this country? The answer is yes. Whether you like the president or not, it is brutally unfair to undermine his administration, as some of his opponents are trying to do.”
O’Reilly noted that former President Obama also faced intense criticism, but claimed the animosity toward the current commander-in-chief is more severe. “As fair-minded people will concede, there was hatred towards President Obama. There was,” the host recalled. “But in the first months of his tenure, there was no apparent undermining of his administration. But now, we have a climate of hatred where there are no rules, and the media feeds the beast every single day.”
O’Reilly continued: “As a historian, I can tell you I have never seen the national press despise a president more than they do Donald Trump. Richard Nixon might have come close at the end of his term but what we have now is unfair and destructive for America. Hate should not be part of the political landscape.”
The conservative political pundit slammed Democratic congressional leaders for allegedly “refusing to cooperate on anything.” He pointed out that Democrats are opposed to Trump’s nominee for the nation’s highest court. “Now, it looks like Senate rules will have to be changed to appoint Judge Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court because not enough Democrats will support the man,” O’Reilly explained. “It is clear that Judge Gorsuch is qualified. It is also clear the most powerful Democrat in Congress, Senator Chuck Schumer, would look askance at any of his colleagues who support the judge. Many Democratic senators fear Mr. Schumer (the Senate minority leader from New York).”
