Fox News host and longtime Trump pal Jeanine Pirro has come under fire by Media Matters and Salon for suggesting that Democrats hate Trump and his supporters because their 'plot to remake America' has been disrupted.

During a Wednesday appearance on "The Todd Starnes" show on Fox Nation, Pirro said:

"I've often wondered, who do they hate more?" Starnes asked Pirro. "Do they hate Donald Trump? Or do they hate the people who put him into office?"

"Well, they hate Donald Trump. He's the one they want to get rid of, because people like you and me who put him into office — their plan and their plot to remake America is to bring in the illegals, change the way the voting occurs in this country, give them licenses," said Pirro. "They get to vote, maybe once, maybe twice, maybe three times, and you know, you've got motor-voter registration on the day of the election. You've got people with — We've got voter rolls that haven't been purged of dead people in years where the Democrats have resisted that."

"Think about it," Pirro added. "It is a plot to remake America — to replace American citizens with illegals who will vote for the Democrats."

According to Salon, Pirro's comments were quickly spun into an 'embrace of the white supremacist "great replacement" conspiracy theory' used by the El Paso, Texas shooter.

Yet another case of wrongthink. We can only imagine, applying the same logic, that Bernie Sanders is embracing the murder of tens of millions by espousing socialist views.
