In this episode of "Why Can't We Be Friends?"...
CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King posted a beyond-pleasant selfie with Fox News host Jesse Watters, both of whom happened to be on the same cross-country flight on Monday.
The smiling snapshot of King and Watters predictably sent leftists into apoplectic meltdown, apparently because the notion of King sharing a good time with an evil Fox News host — particularly Watters, one of Trump's most ardent defenders — was just too much to wrap their poor little indoctrinated heads around.
King wrote on her Instagram account:
Two TV people from competing networks walk on to a plane and to the surprise of them both, they’re seated right next to each other for over four hours. How did it go? Speaking for @jessewatters here: A good time was had by all! Hi, Jesse…saving your number!
Oh, the humanity!

As I suggested in the headline, TDS-riddled leftists across the fruited plain not only reduced themselves to bitter gobs of goo over the mere thought that King would not only post a selfie with Watters, but also because the two media personalities — who couldn't be more diametrically opposed, politics-wise — could actually enjoy each other's company.
Watters no doubt loved every minute of the left-wing loon meltdown.
So, yeah — leftists were outraged by the selfie, but then again, what doesn't outrage the rabid left?
Anyway, here are a few examples:
I respect and love you, Gayle. Your seat mate, however, is harming our country….
Read the room Gayle,,,you should have kept this to yourself,,,,,there is no tolerance for his racism and bigotry,,,,
Fox News are likely scrambling to put out a statement to reassure their viewers that he tried to switch seats and didn’t have a good time at all.
On the other hand, there were oodles of comments praising both King and Watters for setting politics aside.
Great to see this! We all need to work harder at getting along!!
Civility in public! How refreshing! We could certainly use more of that in Congress.I think it’s great!!!
Two people had a great time together and didn’t put their political beliefs in front of a friendship or flight home! That’s the way it should be.
Still, King is no fan of Trump; the TDS-riddled co-host seldom misses an opportunity to bash the president, whether her reasons are fact-based or concocted.

Meanwhile, there are family members and friends across the country who no longer speak to each other because of political differences. Even my own brother, who's usually not all that into politics, recently made a disparaging comment to me about Charlie Kirk that almost set me off.
Instead, I decided to suck it up. Why?
Because political differences — regardless of what we see in the media — shouldn't destroy relationships between people who otherwise care for each other.
