In a stark revelation of hypocrisy, former Fox News commentator Geraldo Rivera has been caught at odds with his own rhetoric. Following President Trump’s bold initiative to ramp up deportations of illegal immigrants, Rivera labeled Haiti as 'hell' — a country he once lambasted Trump for disparaging.
Back in 2018, President Trump famously identified Haiti as one of the 's**thole countries,' sparking outrage among the left and globalists. Notably, Rivera was one of Trump's harshest critics at the time, demanding an apology for what he perceived as disdain towards the troubled nation. Fast forward to 2026, and Rivera’s recent comments reveal a disturbing flip-flop.
Social media has erupted with criticisms, underscoring Rivera’s hypocrisy. One viral tweet by @Decentralreser1 states, "🚨 UPDATE: Geraldo Rivera just got brutally exposed as a massive HYPOCRITE after he said President Trump sending Haitians back to Haiti is 'sending them straight to hell.' Geraldo Rivera, 2018: 'Trump should apologize for calling countries sh*t holes!' Calls Haiti 'hell...' gets," providing evidence of a glaring inconsistency.
The story doesn’t end there. Another tweet from @ryanottawapoker slams Rivera further, saying, "Geraldo Rivera just got exposed as a total hypocrite 🔥 He’s out here saying Trump sending Haitians back is 'sending them straight to hell.' But back in 2018, Geraldo slammed Trump for calling Haiti a s**thole and demanded an apology. Same guy, same country, completely," capturing the sentiment of patriots across America.
It appears the gloves have come off, with Rivera’s contradictory words now part of a broader pattern of rhetoric that mainstream liberals use to disguise their own bias and maintain a double standard. A scathing remark shared by @77WABCradio poses an important question: "GERALDO THEN vs. GERALDO NOW. In 2018, Geraldo Rivera blasted Trump over his reported comments about Haiti. Now, while criticizing Haitian deportations, Geraldo himself says sending migrants back to Haiti would be sending them 'straight to hell.' So… which is it?"
As Trump and his administration prioritize American safety and enforce immigration laws, it’s critical to question the inconsistent stances taken by establishment figures like Rivera. Are these reactions genuine, or simply convenient political theatre? For everyday Americans dedicated to securing our borders and reinforcing sovereignty, the answer is evident. Will Rivera issue an apology for his damning words against Trump’s decisive, America First policies? We all know patriots will be eagerly watching.
