Fox News Anchor Imagines How Republicans Would Have Reacted If Obama Had Made a Speech Like Trump's Rose Garden Debacle
Fox News // Fox News

President Donald Trump took to the Rose Garden on Tuesday afternoon for a press conference, but he would speak for 52 minutes before he began taking questions.

The White House grounds aren't typically used by Presidents for explicit campaigning, but over the course of that 52 minutes, the President unyieldingly railed against his 2020 Democratic opponent Joe Biden, along with his tried and true rogues' gallery of liberal lawmakers: former President Barack Obama, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and others.


Trump falsely claimed that Biden was against windows, wants to abolish all immigration detention, and intends to defund the military, among a bevy of other untrue assertions.

The presser was one of Trump's most erratic in recent months, and even Fox News's Bret Baier pointed out that Republicans would have been shocked and concerned if Trump's predecessor had given a similarly chaotic press conference.

Watch below.

Baier said:

"Presidents in the past have stayed away from overt campaign rhetoric from the Rose Garden or the White House, but it is the President's discretion. It is worth noting, however, to be fair, that had President Obama made this kind of speech from the Rose Garden, Republicans on Capitol Hill would likely have been up in arms."

It was the latest in a years-long string of instances where people observed Trump being held to a lower standard than his predecessor.

People agreed with Baier's hypothetical.





Baier was far from the only one left perplexed by the presser.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
