That's not news. At best, it's an informed guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in Mich Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I try to check out the 'news' from many sources and I was watching Fox and Friends this morning. The Trump interview and following Q&A was absolutely bizarre. He did say the quote just above but later claimed he wasn't serious. The relationship between Fox and Trump should trouble you a bit if you feel the press should be a check on politicians. Trump is certainly favoring Fox in exchange for praise and leading questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Just now, peace out said: It's not out of contest. Here's a video and fuller quote. Thanks for the link. Still "sit up" at attention isn't what Skokols said; he said "stand up" which, imo, is different. It's important to get quotes exact as a changed word here or there can make a difference. Not to mention beg questions on a reporter's credibility. Don't get me wrong, it was a stupid thing to say, regardless; another example of his tone deafness. But I'm not as upset about that as I am about what he said in his FOX interview with Brett Baier earlier in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it was a joke after seeing the actual video, which is why I asked for more information before saying anything more. Joke or not, it's a tone deaf thing to say at best given our history with N Korea. Still, Skokols should have gotten the exact wording right. What he said to Brett Baier earlier in the week is indefensible, though. No need to address your gratuitous attempt to insult. It's what you do.

K-9 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Yes, he was joking, which was obvious after watching the video. But is it so hard to understand why some may not find it remotely funny or even be offended by his "joke?" My people didn't fight and die in Korea so that our president, our commander in chief, can make a joke about wanting his people to behave in the same brainwashed way as N Korea's murderous dictator's people behave for him. A murderous dictator whom we are still technically at war with, by the way. So sure, go ahead and bring the snark and hurl the insults at those who didn't find it funny. Others have good reason to take issue with those words. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
