Fox News host Brian Kilmeade shared his anger on Friday with President Joe Biden for not praising his predecessor during his first address to the nation on Thursday night.
Kilmeade seemed especially angry that Biden brought to notice all the people that have lost their lives to COVID-19 in the past year.
“We don’t need to go over the 500,000 dead, we had that moment. Let’s talk about the future moving forward. Every time he has a chance to praise the previous administration, he not only doesn’t praise, he kicks ’em in the groin,” the “Fox & Friends” host complained, misrepresenting the number of Americans who have died from the coronavirus. The real number is about 540,000.

Kilmeade didn’t seem to have a problem with Donald Trump attacking the Obama administration every chance he got. The Fox News host not once complained about Trump spreading lies about his predecessor on a regular basis.
Kilmeade went on to attack Biden for what he called trying to unify the country, which to conservatives means praising Trump and enacting his policies.
