Lou Dobbs was trending on Twitter on Wednesday evening, but probably not for reasons the Fox Business host would like.
Dobbs had interviewed Donald Trump, but much of talk on social media wasn’t about anything the president said.
It was about Dobbs’ softball style, which included calling Trump “one of the most loved and respected” presidents in history.
“The Daily Show” added some ’70s-era porn music to the footage:

"Lou Dobbs" Move over Mike Pence. There's another "Stepford Wife" in the room.

Dobbs should try out for a position in the North Korea information ministry. That’s some serious sucking up worthy of a despot’s stooge.

How is it possible that Lou can still breath with his head so far up Trump's ass
Lou Dobbs sadly lost his mind somewhere between @CNN and the day @FoxNews gave him his lobotomy

Only way this could be more sycophantic is if Dobbs had Trump help him glue POTUS' face on paper valentine hearts for an hour on camera. ❤️ https://t.co/D0DAbrtvit
