Brit Hume Spars With Stephen Hayes and Bill Kristol Over ‘Bizarre’ Weekly Standard Anti-Trump Editorial

Mediaite reports on this Twitter-war.


"For many conservatives it almost felt like when your favorite uncles start arguing with each other at the Thanksgiving table."Fox News Senior Political Analyst and elder statesman Brit Hume took to Twitter Friday afternoon to publicly criticize an anti-Trump editorial in The Weekly Standard titled “The Surrender.” Hume’s colleague, Fox News Contributor and Weekly Standard Editor-In-Chief Steve Hayes responded and it, as they say, was on:" . . .
. . . 
 "Indeed, the back and forth between the two “Fox News All Stars” was a rare, public display that only escalated after Bill Kristol, a former long-time Fox News contributor and the Editor-at-Large (formerly EIC) at Weekly Standard chimed in with a rebuke of Hume’s critique.

The (bizarre) premise you have to accept not to be alarmed by Trump: “Hey, he’s just a normal GOP president backing a routine GOP agenda.” https://twitter.com/brithume/status/924103762591014913 

"Hume continued the public spat by responding to Kristol in kind:" . . .
