Fox News Anchor Rips Donald Trump For Ripping Her Colleagues: “Bullying Journalists Is Not Presidential”

President Donald Trump laid down some friendly fire Sunday night when he called out a pair of Fox News personalities on Twitter. A colleague of hit back today on the same social media platform.

Former Fox Report Weekend regular and current fill-in anchor Julie Banderas decided to punch back at the jabster-in-chief who referred to FNC’s John Roberts and Gillian Turner as “having even less understanding of the Wall negotiations that the folks at FAKE NEWS CNN&NBC!” Oh, the shame.

Anyway, here’s how Banderas chose to respond to POTUS’ broadside at her FNC brethren:

A few minutes earlier, Banderas had replied to a rando who counseled her that if she “can’t stand some criticism, time to find a new line of work. She hit back, with an “@POTUS” target:

We can and do stand plenty of criticism every day which is fine coming from everyday viewers. Our jobs are not meant to please others. But the office of the @POTUS ought not to be the one lashing out. That’s not how this country works. That’s not how Freedom of the Press works. https://t.co/buakHRRwPO

Less than a half-hour later, Banderas replied to another tweeter who agree with her but added: “But where have you been the last few years? Trump has criticized virtually EVERY OTHER REPORTER ON THE PLANET (other than Fox). Where were you when targets were being put on their backs?” Here is the FNC anchor’s reply”:

We’re speculating that because more than 12 hours have gone by without a presidential pushback tweet, Trump’s phone must be out of charge and lodged between the rear seats of the Beast. Isn’t there a Secret Service person assigned to that?
