Fox News Host Lou Dobbs Created A Viewer Poll About Trump's Leadership That Is Giving The Internet Some Serious North Korea Vibes

If you know one thing about Fox News host Lou Dobbs, it's likely that his support for President Trump is unconditional and unwavering in the face of even the most shameful, shocking scandals (of which there have been many).

Even as President Trump's mismanagement of COVID-19 has sent the country into a state of panic and isolation, Dobbs can't help himself.


He posted a poll to Twitter asking how people felt about the President's performance.

The options he gave as potential responses seemed like the kind of thing you'd see in a dictatorship like North Korea.

Twitter was pretty disturbed by the levels of Dobbs' devotion.



The poll seemed more like a parody one might see on TV.



It's important to remember, however, how many real people actually watch Lou Dobbs and trust what he says.

Even if it's a tiny minority of the total population, that could amount to millions and millions of people influenced.


It's also worth noting how many scientists would never sign on to such a clearly biased source of information.


The internet agreed: it's time for Lou Dobbs to go.



Other polls posted by Dobbs also seemed primed to misinform the American public.


It's OK if you love Dear Leader, Lou, but if you don't want to hear the truth, don't bother posting a poll.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
