‘It Works!’ Fox News Anchor John Roberts Tells Democrat That Trump Policy of ‘Threats and Bullying’ Is Effective

Fox News anchor John Roberts let his audience know exactly where he stood Monday when he exclaimed, “It works!” to Sen. Chris Coons’s (D-DE) argument that former President Donald Trump’s international policy has been made up of ineffective “threats and bullying.”

Roberts began, “Did you hear what he said this morning about possible tariffs against Mexico? When he said that…if he becomes president, on day one he’ll contact the Mexican President, Claudia Sheinbaum, and he’ll say, ‘Fix the problem with people coming up through Central America and Panama and everywhere else in the world through Mexico, or I’m gonna slap a 25% tariff on everything coming out of Mexico.’ And he believes that that’s a no-brainer for her. That she’ll say, ‘You know what? We can’t deal with that. I’ll fix the border.'”

COONS: That’s just another reminder that Trump’s idea of how to conduct international relations is through threats and bullying.

ROBERTS: But it works!

COONS: Mexico is our largest trading partner. It didn’t work really well the last time he was president —

ROBERTS: Yeah, it did!

COONS: — with our key allies around the world. I met with the heads of state from countries like Australia, Canada, Germany, Korea who found his unmoored and unbalanced leadership style discouraging, and at some times, unnerving. I do think that we need to address border security. There’s a great way to do it, a bipartisan bill that was on the floor of the Senate, and we should have past months and months ago except for a former President Trump weighing in against it on the day we were to take it up and pass it. That will get taken up, passed, and signed into law by Vice President Harris in her first couple weeks in office, and it’s my hope that we’ll have a positive agenda to work on, not one that imposes tariffs on every imported product from around the world.
