NextImg:'Gaslighting' Sean Hannity Mocked After Going Full 'North Korea' Over Trump
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Fox News host Sean Hannity is facing heat on social media for his over-the-top praise of Donald Trump after a rambling interview with John Micklethwait of Bloomberg News.

Trump frequently veered way off topic, attacked Micklethwait and often avoided direct answers to questions in an interview that Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign called “angry and unfocused.”

But Hannity declared it one of Trump’s “all-time greatest moments on the campaign trail” and said the former president “absolutely schooled” Micklethwait.

“Trump frankly masterfully navigated the situation, laid out what was a clear vision for American prosperity,” Hannity said.

Some compared Hannity to North Korean state-run media, which is known for its extreme gushing over Kim Jong Un. Others compared him to “Baghdad Bob,” aka Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, who provided reality-defying updates during the Iraq War. Still others compared him to the propaganda machine of the Soviet Union.

Hannity’s critics fired back on social media:

Gaslighting doesn’t get more extreme than this. Incredible. How does this bloke sleep at night? https://t.co/X3ExyifjNa

Baghdad Bob lives! Ludicrous @seanhannity embarrasses himself with a sycophantic rant that competes with Saddam Hussein’s infamous press secretary in Baghdad. #LOL https://t.co/Xv5i9MXihx

The worse something goes for Trump, the harder they go with the propaganda. This is how you know how badly today’s event went. https://t.co/j6D8xxkTtk

It never ceases to amaze me the depths Fox will go to just to sane wash Trump.

That economic interview was a little embarrassing for anyone with a kindergarten level of education.

Growing up during the 70s +80s, I (and many Americans) would laugh whenever we saw propaganda from the USSR, Cuba and other Soviet bloc nations. It seemed insane state media thought people would buy such blatant lies. And yet, millions did.

Not so funny anymore. https://t.co/rdkpNIuRz3

My lord @seanhannity this is comical even for you. He answered nothing. He’s a clown. You’re a clown. I cannot wait until you retire back in the cave you came from when this is all over. Nary a truthful word has come from your face for years. https://t.co/SSPq8pOhiW
