Trump Bashes Fox for Acknowledging Republicans Running Against Him

Donald Trump is scheduled to appear on Fox News Wednesday night for a town hall discussion ahead of next week’s Iowa caucuses . He began his morning by bashing the network that serves as his primary propaganda arm in the media. “So funny to watch Steve Doocy of Fox & Friends desperately trying to save Ron DeSanctimonious, a sinking ship.

Whatever happened to that guy??? Also, the CNN Poll used by Fox, even though I’m winning big, is a FAKE outlier,” he wrote early Wednesday morning on Truth Social. The former president was responding to a segment on Fox & Friends in which Doocy mentioned that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis may have a turn out advantage in Monday’s caucuses, which require in person participation.

“The big question is who has got the best ground game to get people out,” Doocy said. “That is where Ron Desantis looks like he’s actually got the advantage. Even though his number in Iowa – he’s currently at 19% in the popular polls — but his Iowa super PAC has organized. They have knocked on the doors of 812,000 Iowa homes according to The Des Moines Register .” “Yesterday in the Des Moines Register , they talked about how he has found and located and gotten pledges from 1600 caucus captains and canvassers who are going to turn out people …they pledge to either bring five or ten people with them to the caucuses,” he added.

Trump is also not happy with the polls the network is promoting. “Why does FoxNews keep using a Fake CNN Poll (where I am still winning by a lot)?” Trump added in a separate post on Wednesday. On Tuesday, he bashed the network for using “a Fake News CNN Poll to build up Nikki Haley in New Hampshire,” adding that Fox “just doesn’t get it, as is reflected in their ratings.

No One Asked for Them Bill Ackman is the First (and Worst) Wife Guy of 2024 Haley has been polling well, but Trump has long singled out DeSantis as his primary opponent throughout the race for the 2024 Republican nomination.

Last week, the Trump campaign mailed out flyers to Iowa voters preemptively accusing DeSantis and his wife, Case DeSantis, of “trying to rig the Iowa Caucus.” It’s safe to say that if DeSantis over performs on Monday, or manages to pull off a major upset victory against the former president, things could get even uglier, very quickly..
