As a journalist, Geraldo Rivera is supposed to report the facts. Sadly, the hosts of “Fox & Friends” weren’t willing to acknowledge them on Friday. It happened during a discussion about Donald Trump’s recent series of racist tweets telling four Democratic congresswomen of color that they should “go back” to other countries. Later this week, people at a Trump rally in North Carolina began chanting “Send her back!” in reference to Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), one of the lawmakers Trump targeted. Host Peter Hegseth claimed Trump’s tweets couldn’t have been racist since he never specifically mentioned anyone’s race in the tweets.
