Co-host of Fox News’ “The Five” and former press secretary to President George W. Bush Dana Perino on Monday evening slammed Donald Trump for suggesting that Bush was partially to blame for the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
“I think it was a dismal weekend when you have liberal conspiracy theories being introduced by the Republican frontrunner,” she said on “The Five.”
Perino lamented that Trump has been pushing “soft trutherism” on the 9/11 attacks and cast doubt on Trump’s claim that he could have prevented the attacks with stronger immigration policies.
“Even the left doesn’t do what Donald Trump does. Only the farthest right lunatics were truthers,” she later added.
Trump last week suggested that George W. Bush was partially to blame for the 9/11 attacks, prompting former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) to jump to his brother’s defense.

Dana Perino: Proof that FOX News is the last refuge of Stupid Blondes who will say and do anything for money.
Miss Perino has a problem distinguishing between “soft tutherism” and hard facts.
Liberal conspiracy theories? Not really.
I’m sure some “truthers” might be liberal, but that was always way more of an Alex Jones cultist thing and the type of speculation you hear from hardcore black hawk helicopter libertarian (“jet fuel doesn’t melt steal!”) types. Not exactly people you’d place on the left of the political spectrum.
Case in point: the Republican frontrunner is the one who is bringing this stuff up.
Cognitive dissonance is a bitch, isn’t it Perino?
