Shep Smith Mocks Donald Trump's Mitt Romney Endorsement (VIDEO)

The ever-honest Shep Smith made his disdain for Donald Trump clear during his Thursday show.

The Fox News host's hour coincided with Trump's endorsement of Mitt Romney in Las Vegas, and Smith spent the hour dripping with sarcasm about the relative importance of the event. As his show began, he looked at footage of Trump and cried, "he's talking again!"

A few minutes later, Smith took his mockery to another level.

"I've just gotten word that in the next hour, Shakira and Big Bird will also be issuing endorsements, and we'll be having live, Team Fox coverage of that!" he said. "Shakira, Big Bird and Donald Trump. In serious news today..."

Shep is the only person on Fox that is watchable. He is the token journalist on the channel.

No, he's simply the guy they use to counter their other B.S. He's worked at that propaganda channel for years, knowing full well what they do. To call him a journalist is laughable. He's drawing a check to make sure they have a guy that they can point to when questioned about their crimes.

I hate to tell you this, Shep, but you are wasting your time trying to tell midget Trump and his midget followers anything. Everything said about this egomaniac goes right over the top of his head. One can take Donald to the cleaners, or put him the wash, and blow dry him but you will never remove the stench. We can still smell him coming from a mile away

Blow drying the Donald would bring him to climax and expose his bald head.

I'll trust Big Bird's endorsement more than Trumps

Is Smith sick ? he sure looks skinnier with sunken eyes.

Unless he is on a diet .

He went on a diet after finding out he had high cholesterol and other dietary concerns his doctor had. Gave him a bit of a health scare and he say he may have gone a bit overboard with the diet.

"Shakira, Big Bird and Donald Trump. In serious news today," says Shepard Smith. There is no need to insult either Shakira or Big Bird by dumping them in with "The Donald."

I'd skip the earplugs and go right to the cyanide.

Whoa! I haven't tuned into Shep for a decade - only difference is his cheeks are sucked in like a someone on the wrong side of a crack-pipe. Maybe he got some work done, or maybe he snorts a yard line daily.

This man looks very, very sick.

Anybody know?

He recently admitted to losing too much weight. Don't think he went into the specifics (like how) but I hope he takes care of himself.

Interesting.

Ya'd think he'd have a good look in the mirror...and stop already.

He just looks....ill......

He said he went a bit overboard with dieting and exercising.

There is a saying, "Hope springs eternal". In this case I would say it sprung a big leak.
