Trump Loses it on Fox & Friends: They’ve Gone to the Dark Side

During his Presidency, Donald Trump sometimes took shots from Fox on-air talent. Usually, the critiques came from straight newspeople like Neal Cavuto, Bret Baier, or Chris Wallace. And Trump, who spent most of his term watching television, usually responded in an immediate fashion.

Fox & Friends, the network’s popular morning show, was always a safe space for Trump. And the former President paid them back for their loyalty with special access. But Trump raged at the show on Monday over their coverage of a poll.

The hosts noted that a Turning Point USA straw poll taken this weekend was really strong for Trump. They qualified those numbers, though, by saying that it doesn’t represent all voters.

“Keep in mind,” Steve Doocy said, “Turning Point, a group of young Republican conservative activists from all across the country. So, you have got people from all across the country convening in Tampa.”

LMAO! Trump lashes out at the "School Newspaper" (Fox & Friends) for getting it wrong "I still sit at the "cool kids' table!" ,🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/l1rGVkJEX4

Trump quickly responded on Truth Social:

“Fox and Friends just really botched my poll numbers, no doubt on purpose. That show has been terrible – gone to the “dark side.” They quickly quote the big Turning Point Poll victory of almost 60 points over the number two Republican, and then hammer me with outliers. Actually, almost all polls have me leading all Republicans & Biden BY A LOT. RINO Paul Ryan, one of the weakest and worst Speakers EVER, must be running the place. Anyway, thank you to Turning Point, the crowd & “love” was AMAZING!”
