Slowly but surely former President Donald Trump is making a list of Fox News hosts who he believes do not support him.
According to Rolling Stone, the former president is reportedly obsessed with the amount of airtime that FNC is giving to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Some pundits believe that Trump and DeSantis will tangle for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.
The former president is reportedly keeping tabs on which hosts truly support him. Trump believes Sean Hannity is on his side but has some doubts about whether Laura Ingraham supports him.
“Per usual, the former president has also asked certain confidants for their opinions on which Fox News regulars and right-wing media stars might be jumping ship from Team Trump,” the article said.
Earlier this week, Trump posted a “Truth” about Fox & Friends which he said has “gone to the dark side.” He blamed the show for messing with his poll numbers which he claims has him leading all Republicans and President Joe Biden.
“Fox & Friends” co-host Steve Doocy was discussing a straw poll conducted at last week’s Turning Point conference in Tampa, Florida. Trump won the poll by 60 points, but Doocy asserted that the actual number represented a, “slim portion of the Republican party.”
Newsmax anchor Eric Bolling told Rolling Stone Trump’s dislike for some FNC personalities dates back to 2015.
“Trump was watching and called me after the show,” Bolling said. “He said I should sue [Dana] Perino for libel, based on her accusations that I had motives [for sticking up for Trump] other than opining.”
