It was a fitting end to this cross-country clown show. Last night at his final campaign rally of 2018, Donald Trump brought along a couple of bonus acts to the circus. How did they ever get all these egos in one arena?
There was Fox “News” host Sean Hannity who broadcast his program from the event site but had promised earlier in the day he wouldn’t appear on stage with Trump, you know journalistic integrity and all that rot. But low and behold, there he was!
Sean Hannity just took the stage next to Trump in Cape Girardeau. Earlier today he released this statement: "To be clear, I will not be on stage campaigning with the President."
And then he called the actual reporters in the back "fake news".

And then he took a little swipe at his colleagues calling them “fake news.”

“All those people in the back are fake news,” Hannity said while standing at the presidential podium. In the back, in the press pen, were reporters and producers from all the major networks, including Fox. How do you think it felt for the Fox staffers, who were just trying to do their jobs, to be insulted by Fox’s biggest star?”
Also on hand for the love fest was another Fox host, Jeanine Pirro.

And, then there was the largest bag of wind, Rush Limbaugh, who can lie with the best of them. He said it was Hillary Clinton colluded with the Russians.
