Fox Star Stuns Colleagues With Brutal Trump Shaming
Fox News Donald Trump got a brutal wake-up call from one of Fox News’ longest-serving and most conservative anchors.
Brian Kilmeade, 62, appeared on Fox & Friends Weekend Sunday, and raged against Trump’s suggestion that Ukraine needed to replace President Volodymyr Zelensky.
“The president got ticked off because Zelensky came out and said, ‘Do not buy five hundred million tons of diesel,’” he said of the president’s decision to buy fuel from Russia .
Kilmeade went on to suggest that Trump was placing the U.S. on the wrong side of history.
“So, Zelensky’s frustrated because now all this money’s going to flow into Russia, who started this whole war unprovoked.
They’re the bad guys.
And there’s no way Zelensky turned down any plausible deal...” he said.
When co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy suggested Zelensky was to blame for the lack of progress in peace talks, Kilmeade pushed back, saying: “There was no plausible, practical peace effort that Vladimir Putin would participate in effectively that would end this war.
“There’s one person who’s responsible; Vladimir Putin.
That is it.
And he’s getting his a-- kicked.” Things got more heated when Campos-Duffy accused Zelensky of ruining chances of peace by ignoring Trump’s calls not to bomb refineries .
“Are you for America or Ukraine?” she asked.
Kilmeade went a step further, and blamed Trump’s war with Iran for creating the fuel shortage in the first place.
“The diesel fuel got stopped because Iran was blowing up the Gulf states’ oil and their refineries.
