As he often does, Brit Hume shared a fairly spectacular piece (this time from Kimberley Strassel about what Trump has said and done about COVID-19) to make his own point. Notice how Brit makes HIS point first, and then shares Strassel’s piece:
Trump said a lot of rosy and inaccurate things about Covid 19, but he also did a lot of things and still is. @KimStrassel on what he’s done vs. what other politicians have done or not done. https://t.co/49MvceChrX

And even though he pointed out that Trump himself has said inaccurate things, for some reason The Bulwark’s UrbanAchievr decided to pick a fight with Brit over Kimberley Strassel. Don’t make that face, we don’t know why these people start nonsense with him … it never ends well for them.
Despite your framing, Kim Strassel doesn't once criticize Trump for saying "rosy and inaccurate" things, so not sure why anyone should find her assessment credible.

Awww, he doesn’t like Kim’s article.
Color us shocked.
He’s usually so supportive of Conservative women.
Ahem.
Brit fired back:
I said that and then referred to her article on what he’s done. If you doubt that, go back to my tweet and read it as slowly as necessary. https://t.co/8izSupq2xu

Maybe just don’t tangle with Brit, Bundt.
Brandt.
Sorry, Christian.
We remember him when he was just a little Twitter troll – how he’s grown.
Or not.
Sometimes “Read more” is the only accurate reply, honestly

Or read more S-L-O-W-L-Y.
That works too.
Spoken like a VA gentleman. God Bless

Kim Strassel is one of the most credible reporters out there.

He might need someone to read it to him.

If only there were more pictures in her piece.
Brit, you're still pretty witty for an old guy! 🙂 You go.

He’s just a ‘straight’ guy, you know?
We expect snark from media types like Greg Gutfeld … but Brit?
That’s probably why it works so well when he does it.
