Fox News' Bret Baier Mimics Trump, Sparking Laughter At Journalism Forum
HuffPost
“I don’t get to do it on the show that much," said the "Special Report" anchor.
Fox News’ Bret Baier entertained the audience with his impressions of President Donald Trump during a journalism forum on Wednesday.
The “Special Report” anchor was talking about the “confidence” of Trump’s second administration — and the president’s record-setting long address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday — at an event hosted by nonprofit newsroom NOTUS when he suddenly jumped into character as the president.
“Internally, you know, the word went out that [former President] Bill Clinton had the longest State of the Union and joint address at one hour, 28 minutes,” Baier told The Wall Street Journal’s Josh Dawsey, who was moderating the event.
The Fox anchor suggested Trump was “looking at the clock” during the speech and then said, in Trump’s voice: “I’m going to get 139.”
The audience laughed and Dawsey responded: “That’s not bad. That’s not bad.”
