Lesbian Fox host says only Donald Trump “can save the world” after Joe Biden ended it

Out Fox News host Tammy Bruce declared that the world was ended by President Joe Biden in a rant about Time magazine.

The magazine released its yearly Time 100 list of the most influential people of 2024, and Biden was not included. Bruce disagreed, saying that “clearly” Biden is “the most influential person on Earth by doing nothing, by neutering the United States.”

“Every horrible thing that’s happening- there is no good thing that’s happening because of this man,” she said, saying that he has implemented no policies but also policies “that give power to the worst people on Earth.”

“There’s now more and more people saying that they feel dumb and embarrassed for having voted for Joe Biden,” she claimed. “But that’s what fear does to you.”

Then Bruce claimed that the world ended because of Biden.

“This is why there’s this demonizing of Donald Trump, trying to make you think the world is gonna end,” Bruce said. “And lo and behold, the world did end because of Joe Biden.”

She didn’t explain what she meant by the world ending, but earlier in the rant she cited the confrontation between Iran and Israel, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and North Korea firing some short-range missiles into the ocean, which the country has been doing for decades.

“And now we’ve got a chance to make a difference here. And this is what the bad guys also know. This is why the rest of this year as Donald Trump – they’ve tried to put him in a cage – the one guy that can save this nation and the world at this point.”

“I thought Donald Trump was great and a great president,” she continued. “He’s now the guy that can save the world.”

While Bruce is a right-wing ideologue today, in the 1990s she was the president of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW). According to the LA Times, she was a “true believer who spent the first half of the 90s raising hell locally and nationally,” organizing marches and standing up to local politicians as she developed a career in the media.

Her first major conflict with other liberals started in 1995 when she helped lead protests against O.J. Simpson after he was acquitted of charges connected to the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown. The LA chapter of NOW eventually censured her and removed her from her leadership position after she faced criticism from Black feminists for making statements they said were racist while ignoring the racism involved in the Simpson case.

“Race issues are not at the very top of my list,” Bruce said in a later interview about the conflict with NOW, admitting that she didn’t think NOW should be “worrying about Black men.”

“What I worry about are women. That’s what makes me a feminist.”

Later in that decade, Bruce defended the hatefully anti-gay Dr. Laura Schlessinger and published a book entitled The New Thought Police, rebranding herself as a staunch critic of the left.

In 2003, she worked for the Republican Party and was appearing on Fox News and on Laura Ingraham’s far-right radio show. Completely free from any career-related need for approval from the left or anti-racist organizations, she attacked President Barack Obama and his family when he was inaugurated in 2009, saying, “We’ve got trash in the White House.”
