Frank Luntz Shows Bill Maher How To 'Change Minds With Evil Words'
Frank Luntz is the master of polling, the gold standard of Fox 'News' GOP-TV, the place where right wing voters go to get some infotainment. Luntz seems to understand the Republican voter's 'mind,' or whatever visceral organ they use to make political choices. He is the go-to guy whom Fox News employs when they need data extrapolated for a desired outcome. He can ask a completely baseless and fictional question in a way that incriminates his Democratic opponents before he gets the subject even thinking about an answer.
Luntz specifies, as if it matters, that he works for Fox and CBS. Either way, his demographic will tune in to wherever this mismatched, high-top sneaker-wearing fashionista appears on their teevee. When you hear Luntz, I doubt the first thing you're thinking is CBS, as he reminds you of some of his Caucasian smug pundits who are not terribly fond of exercise. Frank can be interchangeable with a younger Karl Rove or the Chris Stirewalt, who share much in common with Frankie. .
The exchange was heated right away. Bill Maher asked how in the Hell is it possible that Hillary and Donald Trump are at an equal standing in the polls.
MAHER: explain this to me how an insane racist in orange greasepaint can be tied with the former First Lady, the Valedictorian at Wesleyan, The Secretary of State, New York Senator. 40-40? What is going on here and who's the other 20?
