Support for Donald Trump while at Fox

Nauert is known for being a supporter of Donald Trump. In February 2017, after Nordstrom's ended sales of Ivanka Trump's clothing line, Nauert tweeted that she would buy 2 pairs and wear them all week and accused Nordstrom's of "caving to liberal pressure".[8]

Trump says “a rock” will “be considered a firearm.”

He is encouraging border agents and soldiers to commit crimes. Shoot to kill anyone who throws a rock at the southern border. No commander at southern border will allow shooting anyone for throwing a rock.

This is all about scaring people to vote for Republicans next Tuesday. There is absolutely no compelling reason for Trump to deliver this speech at this time in this setting.

President Donald Trump insisted on Wednesday that the Democratic Party does not have the midterm momentum that its leaders have claimed, proclaiming that “the blue wave is dead.”

In an interview with the Christian Broadcast Network’s David Brody and Jenna Browder, Trump expressed confidence that Republicans would win the Senate and “do very well in the House." His comments came one day after House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) declared that Democrats "will win" control of the House and perform well in Senate and gubernatorial races across the country.

“I think the blue wave is dead, frankly,” Trump told CBN in an interview taped Wednesday aboard Air Force One. “And I think we’re doing very well. It looks like we’re going to win the Senate, which is very important.”

Trump stopped short of predicting that Republicans would maintain their majority in the House next Tuesday but slammed Pelosi, the longtime Democratic leader that GOP candidates have used as a foil in races nationwide.

Princeton historian Kevin Kruse, in a lengthy Twitter thread, breaks down the reasons why the new Trump ad may be the most racist TV ad he’s seen — even worse than the infamous Willie Horton ad that aired in 1988.

Kruse begins by noting how infamous Republican campaigner Lee Atwater at the time knew that his ads tying Democratic presidential nominee Mike Dukakis to black convict Willie Horton would be seen as racist, which was why he outsourced their funding to a third-party group called “Americans for Bush.”

The ad was so racist, Kruse documents, that Atwater actually felt the need to apologize for it on his deathbed.

Trump, Kruse says, feels no need to distance himself from the racism in his ad — and has even pinned it to his Twitter profile.

“This new ad is coming directly from the personal Twitter account of the president himself,” Kruse writes. “It isn’t just that the president of the United States is personally pushing white nationalist politics in its ugliest and crudest form, it’s that he’s doing it proudly and with purpose. That is so, so much worse than ‘Willie Horton’ ever was.”

Trump promises concentration camps and indefinite detention for border-crossers: "One other thing -- important -- we're not doing any releases anymore... We'll build tent cities, whatever we have to build in terms of housing. We're not doing releases."
