Former President Donald Trump launched a scathing attack on Fox News, accusing the network of promoting biased polls that undercut his popularity while boosting his opponents.
In a blistering post on Truth Social, Trump slammed Fox for showcasing “FoxNews will put up Fake Confidential Democrat Polls that were ‘leaked’ to them, but not Rasmussen or any of the REAL polling groups that have me way ahead,” Trump ranted on his Truth Social website. “What’s up with FOX? I do better with CNN!!!”
The criticism came after Fox aired a poll by Democratic pollster Bendixen & Amandi, indicating Trump narrowly trailing Vice President Kamala Harris in a hypothetical matchup. This segment was highlighted by Fox anchor John Roberts during “America Reports” on Tuesday.
Trump’s ongoing feud with Fox News has intensified, with the former president accusing the network of favoring his political adversaries throughout the GOP primary and delivering overly critical coverage.
Despite support from some prominent Fox hosts like Sean Hannity, who recently featured Trump on his prime-time show, Trump’s frustration with the network remains palpable.
