Fox News’ Juan Williams set himself up for attack when he declared that “it’s a fact” that President Donald Trump is a racist.A fiery debate erupted on “The Five” Thursday as Williams locked horns with his Fox News colleagues in a discussion about the CNN Democratic debate.(Video: Fox News)
Guest Brian Kilmeade spoke about the nature of debate questions from CNN’s Don Lemon as a moderator, contending that his claim that Trump is stoking racism should disqualify him.“I never saw a moderator take such a pointed question, just assumptive question. I liked Rachel Maddow, who obviously is an opinion anchor, moderate,” he said, referring to the MSNBC host

Not only is it opinion, it's stupid, ignorant opinion. Except when it's just a lie

The left has a long history of repeating falsehoods over and over until the sheeple accept it as a fact. This is really pissing me off. This whole lie about PT being a racist and all his supporters as well.

With Juan everything he says is carved on a stone tablet. That’s why no one watches him. Well, almost no one…
I’m not clear as to why anyone here is interested in what he says.

Hard to say if Wan is deliberately stupid, ideologically tainted, or in it (out of it?) for cash. Either way, last night, when my bride had left the room, I barked an FU at his nasty remarks.
MAGA

Sometimes I'd rather listen to Beckel, the blowhard, than this ignorant Panamanian.

Affirmative Action know-nothing concurring in coverage by Affirmative Action know-nothing. Cult member affirming behavior of a cult member. Yawn.

If 51% of people believe the earth is flat that must mean it's a fact. I gave up on TV years ago.

Are we approaching the point where almost every statement coming out of certain person's mouths is "racist"?
If that is all they have or will talk about when having to answer to conversation about issues, we are going to get to a point of the little boy who cried "wolf" and people will be so annoyed and desensitized, that when something actually does come up, there is going to be a problem with those people being taken seriously.
Facts and truths are undeniable, but when those haven't been established and documented, just throwing out the word racist to every inquiry is going to backfire and bring disrepute to folks like Juan Williams.

Wasn't it Reagan who said something like 'everyone is entitled to an opinion, but nobody is entitled to their own facts'. Juan lives in his own pathetic reality. It must be really hard living life while being that pathetic of a man.

That's why I never watch anything on Fox when Juan Williams is on a panel it was the same when the big alcoholic Bob Beckel was on there. I call Juan Williams the 'Crash Test Dummy' that's who he reminds me of.

On a positive note, I really really really enjoy Larry Elder. He is a voice of reason.

Williams is a flat out racist and a bleeding heart libnut, always spouting the black, dem talking points.
It's always predictable exactly what Williams is going to say.

Perhaps FOX will find the courage to fire Juan Williams. Nah, probably not, despite my certainty that 85% of FOX viewers can't stand Juan Williams. Somebody should do a poll on that.

Of course it's only an opinion. A hopelessly biased opinion.
PDJT never said anything racist about Cummings or about his district. The Left claims to hear "dog whistles" from Conservatives that the Left invents, repeats, amplifies, and repeats again and again until Poof! The Big Lie becomes a "fact" for Leftists like Juan Williams to cite.
For those keeping score at home, "racism" is any criticism directed at a Liberal Person of Color (Black conservatives like Condaleeza Rice, Justice Clarence Thomas, or Secretary Ben Carson are unprotected from criticism).

The leftards are terrified of the polls showing how many minorities are leaving the democrat plantation, because President Trump is getting results. Smearing the president 24/7 is all they have.

Once upon a time, Juan was intellectually honest, and was booted from NPR from voicing uncomfortable truths. He's been trying to get back into NPR's good graces ever since joining FOX.
He doesn't bring anything to the table.

I ceased watching Fox News a few years ago over the omnipresence of the insufferable Juan Williams. You can't get away from him and his irrelevant mouth. A lot of people on that channel declare him the best family man and a nice, decent human being. Oh, really? He's an obnoxious, partisan, deluded fraud with a great deal of animosity, if not hatred, to all things conservative. Like the king said to Mozart in the movie, "You don't persuade."

Fox should replace Juan with Capri Cafaro. She's a great substitute. Make her permanent.

Juan's job is to disagree with everyone else no matter how stupid it is to do so. In this matter, he chose to be stupid about an opinion without providing any evidence of fact. I suspect Juan isn't as liberal as he is in real life as he appears on the Five. I don't think he lives his life that way, but much like everyone on the left, calling a city a hell hole is considered racist even when there is nothing racist about the statement. One local Baltimore TV station went out and interviewed people who live in Baltimore, and they all agreed with Trump when it came to crime, litter, and corruption in city government. So I guess everyone interviewed are racist according to the socialists criteria.

Williams is paid by Fox to be their Race Huckster-in-Chief. I wonder if he even believes his own nonsense.

Pleasssssssssssse FIRE Juan! I don't watch FOX because of his loud mouth and his lies. This fool was fired from the Washington Post for sexual harassment and from NPR with his xenophobia comments. The idiot has also been caught plagiarizing many times. What was on his resume that enticed FOX to hire him. Or should I ask what was not on his Resume?

I think Brian Kilmeade has had enough of being on Fox & Friends. I see he's doing outside reporting programs, also for Fox. Everytime I see him he looks irritated or annoyed.
Even though that show has made him wealthy, I can understand feeling bogged down in the rut of a routine. Maybe it's time someone took his place on F&F.
