And yet if Obama hadn't been wearing the helmet FOX would have said he was setting a bad example or some BS like that. I miss the days when this is what the presidential 'scandals' were.

Personally, I find it very comforting to know that Sean Hannity considers safety equipment "dumb."

[valentintourtois]

Lol. Mocking the president, or anyone, for wearing a bike helmet is already stupid. But the worst part is, you can clearly see he's biking WITH HIS DAUGHTER. He's showing her a good exemple damnit ! Not everything revolves around virility....

Their aversion to head protection explains so much about their mental capacity.

I lost my Brain cells watching the news anchors

"Humiliating. Unnecessary. You Deserve Better." That should be the new slogan for FOX News.

[Powdaburn]

I would have disliked his irresponsibility if he wasn't wearing a helmet. That's not a message a leader of the country should be sending to his people.

Im german, and i honestly thought that would be satire here, ive witnessed alot from america but this... Wow

[aswintgopal]

Now we know why Fox news anchors are like this, they never wore a helmet in their childhood and hit their head hard.

[dunmatta]

I think I fried a few brain cells watching this.

[JohnDoe-qshk]

What? Safety on a bike? How unmanly. And I even heard he doesn’t even cheat on his wife!

[ocharni]

Whenever you think "OK, it literally cannot get any more stupid than this or that" Fox comes along and proves you wrong...

[TinaB]

These seem even more rediculous now 😅😂

[chrisphafner]

Unbelievable..Obama was setting positive Public Health Role-modeling standards. I WAS PROUD TO HAVE SUCH A RESPONSIBLE PRESIDENT -one whose brain was worth protecting.

[ruben]

If Obama hadn’t worn a helmet, Fox News would call him out for being reckless and not wearing a helmet.

I was riding a bike without a helmet, hit a bump and crashed, landed face first on a rock and had to get 100 stitches. So you could say I wish I was wearing a “dumb” helmet.

[strangeroamer]

Fox should make fun of construction workers as well. I see construction workers wear hardhats and steeltoe boots and safety harnesses. Bunch of pansies with their safety gear.

It’s hilarious how they compare those two photos. On the left, we basically have a meme for male insecurity. And on the right, we basically have the cover model for a fitness magazine. And yet somehow Fox thinks the guy who’s cycling is “weaker” than the guy who is sitting on a horse.

[DavidJ]

This is the kind of idiocracy that led to Trump. If foxed were banned today, by tomorrow, America would literally become 10xs better overnight.

O.M.G. I finally figured out what's wrong with fox news. They're suffering from brain damage! This is why helmets are important kids.
