David Koechner agrees with Will Ferrell … there’s a similarity between Ron Burgundy and Donald Trump. We got David at LAX Tuesday, and he can’t say enough bad things about the Prez … from him being a fake Commander in Chief, to his involvement…

Anchorman Tells Viewers to "Check Your Panties"
Perhaps Donald Trump made the right move last week when he destroyed a Teleprompter in front of screaming fans at a campaign stop.
Why? What has caused us to actually praise Trump for… well… anything?
Allow the following video to explain:
It features Eric Philips, an anchorman in Virginia, who at least caught himself pretty quickly after making a rather obvious and hilarious blunder on air this past Wednesday.
Reading from a script, the NBC12 reporter told viewers, very simply, to “check your panties.”
He went on read a few more words before stopping and realizing that the script was supposed to say something else.
It was supposed to say “check your pantries.”
After all, the line was meant to lead a segment on a recall of 175,000 rice and slow cookers due to a fire hazard.
That really has nothing to do with anyone’s underwear and taking a close look at said underwear.
“I couldn’t warn you before. I saw it and I couldn’t warn you, Eric,” co-anchor Karla Redditte said between laughs.
Philips recovered from the mistake like a true professional and later took to Twitter to joke about the gaffe.
“Ok…so this happened this morning. Soooo embarrassed! #CheckYourPanties,” he wrote.
There was also this funny Tweet:
You might as well embrace, it, right?
“My partner in news is making sure I go over my scripts with a fine toothed comb because….you know…#checkyourpanties #checkyourscripts,” Philips also wrote as a caption to the following social media picture:
HA! We love it.
For once, too, Twitter users even came together in praise instead of mockery.
“You handled that so well and gave America a good laugh and a new hashtag! Roll with it!” one person wrote.
We agree with this person.
