John Kennedy should focus on why Louisiana is the poorest state in the country.

You know you're way over the line when even a Fox host is calling you out.

[E.J.Ingram]

He does care about her race and gender. He’s the one that brought it up!! What poll did he see? He’s lying because he was called out.

[kenfowler]

WE tell our Children not to call people names and yet here is a senator calling people names.

[FernandoSanchez-ptjl]

This is the reason why America is falling apart… having this old man as a senator is simply embarrassing

[MaggieJean]

Finally people are pushing back on the name calling.

[wildfire]

John Kennedy is another old Senator who needs to step down.

[Issayanah]

What an embarrassment .Senator Kennedy thought reporter was going to go along with it .Good they are calling them out. This is middle school behavior beneath the office they serve.

[wonderwhat]

That old senator is part of the swamp that needs to be drained. What a fart.

[PhoenixPrime]

That senator is talking like a darn bully from grade school, and that in itself is just immature. He should be ashamed of himself!

[johnny]

This is so embarassing. The reporter is young enough to be his son but it's the reporter that's reminding him not to call people names.

[DM-pxip]

Good for Neil. Thank you for pointing out Kennedy's rudeness.

[andreasmodugno]

Kennedy of Louisiana is a fine example of what the MAGA crowd are all about... petty name callers

[lorigardilcic]

“ your feelings got hurt”… he made it personal
when the interviewer was asking him about voters

[crazygrandma]

This old man is so gone, he's mummified.

[GenRN]

Zero substance, all about calling names. So typical.
Kudos to Cavuto. I hope Kennedy has the day he deserves.

[veliahernandez]

Did you guys notice? Since Trump in politics most of the GOP are so rude, I have never seen that in my 73 years 😳 I remember the debates with Reagan, Bush etc and I never heard none of them calling people names like 5 years old children, what's happening to

The look of surprise on Kennedy's face says it all. He went on Fox expecting softball questions.

[JohnT-mvmb]

He's kept Louisiana at the bottom of the barrel for a long time. Louisianians deserve better.

When even Fox News are starting to doubt about
