Before the debate, many conservatives believed CNN would be lopsided during the debate, but Fox News’ Sean Hannity gave credit to Dana Bash and Jake Tapper for being “fair.”

Conservative media personality Sean Hannity gave kudos to “fake news CNN” for delivering a fair presidential debate despite “trashing” former President Donald Trump “for many years.”

Hannity said: “In fairness to fake news CNN, Fake Jake, and Fake Dana, they put aside their prejudice, their hatred towards Donald Trump for the night, and they actually asked questions and waited for answers.
