Trish Regan, host of Live Free or Die on Fox Business, just called Trump ‘unpatriotic’ for not defending the US to an international bully today.
In her 3 minute monologue, she said this was clearly not Trump’s best performance and said this:
“He should have defended us. He should have defended his own intelligence community. Or just don’t take the meeting. Don’t go to Helsinki if you can’t look the guy in the eye and tell him what’s what!”

She admits that she came into today hoping to be able to say the MSM was wrong about the Trump-Putin meeting. But then I guess Trump ruined that and she’s clearly upset.
So upset that, according to Mediaite, she later called Trump ‘unpatriotic’ on-air:
Later on during another panel segment Regan again said, “You need to hit back hard and that’s what I would have expected of Donald Trump!”
Robert Wolf called it the “weakest point of the President’s term” and said, “You used the word upsetting and Neil [Cavuto] uses the word disgusting and Brit Hume uses lame.”
Regan said, “And I’m going to add another word, okay? Unpatriotic.”
She elaborated, “You’re there representing us, your country. Don’t allow the likes of Vladimir Putin to push us around, period. It’s just not appropriate.”
On Twitter, in retweeting the Fox Business video of her monologue, she also called Trump ‘unpatriotic’ there as well.
Unpatriotic. Don’t let a bully bully you on the international stage. POTUS should have defended us. https://t.co/dxg0UrBQvW

Wow. Trump has clearly done some damage today against his own base.
