Fox News absolutely lost its mind because Joe Biden wore sneakers
In this week’s episode of ‘Haven’t Fox News Got Anything Better to Talk About?’, actual adults are freaking out that the 80-year-old President wore comfy shoes.
Daily Beast reporter Justin Baragona spotted the Fox fashion police at work.
What are we outraged about today, folks? pic.twitter.com/QOFtBAu1VV

Brace yourself for some prime overreacting.
Fox host Dagen McDowell absolutely flips out over Biden wearing sneakers, claiming it is equivalent to "wearing your bedroom slippers outside" or "wearing a speedo and flip-flops to a funeral." pic.twitter.com/Wl1dWVBSkx

It brought a previous presidential scandal to mind – the #YesWeTan Barack Obama suit outrage.
Oh Dear God! Is it worse than that whole tan suit scandal?!? 😱 https://t.co/Czl43BjbCq

‘Look, I can accept multiple impeachments & indictments, 70+ felony counts, pussy-grabbing, accusations of rape, being found liable of sexual assault, treason… but wearing SNEAKERS is going WAY too far for a president!’ #Trump @POTUS #Biden pic.twitter.com/JLpeMZH67v

Dagen McDowell started off as a business journalist at Fox Business and has devolved into an embrasing far right loon giving political commentary on Fox News snows. None of them have ever shown any concern for the mental fitness of the disgraced former president. https://t.co/z3EQ2wgBEb

One, this is silly.
Two, Biden is known to have some neuropathy in his feet from spinal stenosis. If he feels more stable in these shoes, more power to him.
I wear converse or something similar for the same reason, and I’m nearly 30 years younger. https://t.co/39YgvGyJ2L

The greatest trick Rupert Murdoch ever pulled was the invention of a cable news channel that trained its audience like Pavlov’s dogs.
Instead of drooling at the sound of a bell, it’s a knee-jerk-level frothing at the brain over anything they’re told to be angry at. https://t.co/Y7RfO5UPhZ

I’ll hand this to Fox. I never thought they’d start making fun of old people for being old to appeal to their audience https://t.co/awJh8J4NsW
