President Donald Trump lashed out at Fox News after host Neil Cavuto expressed shock at Trump's announcement that he is taking hydroxychloroquine as a prevention for the coronavirus.

The drug has not been proven as an effective treatment for the virus, and the Federal Drug Administration recently warned that there was a "risk of heart rhythm problems" and shouldn't be taken outside of a clinical or hospital setting.

Trump tweeted on Monday night that Fox News is not the same. "We miss the great Roger Ailes. You have more anti-Trump people, by far, than ever before. Looking for a new outlet!" Trump wrote.

Look, all the top rated programs on Fox on prime time are Trump loyalists, Tucker Laura Hannity etc. Same with weekends with Judge Jeanine and Greg Gutfield and Mark Levine.
I am not really worried that they have some Dem loyalists like Cavuto at 4 pm or Chris Wallace Sunday mornings. Fox has to appear to be fair and balanced. They may can't have 100% conservatives.
President Trump needs to chill.
There is simply need other Trump friendly news outlet out there that has the ratings Fox has.
I like OAN but their ratings are still low.

DJT should use his influence to get OAN on most cable networks, in airports.

Far better than CNN, MSNBC.

I’d like to see OANN get access to the big cable systems that won’t carry them. I’m lucky to be a Verizon FIOS subscriber and OANN has been on Channel 616 since I signed up with FIOS 5 years ago. Newsmax is on FIOS Channel 615, Fox Business on 617 and Fox News on 618. FIOS is also running new news channels such as Cheddar (Ch 614) and Newsy (Channel 613, which is a Scripps Howard channel, and quite liberal) Newsmax has got much more access to cable subscribers than OANN.

With respect to Neil Cavuto, when he stuck to financial news and analysis he was very good; Roger Ailes brought him over from CNBC to found the Fox Business Channel. He obviously hates DJT with a purple passion (similar to Judge Andrew Napolitano). His latest outburst has brought him squarely into douchebag territory.

My comment was a general comment and not directed at you. I was addressing Americans, so there's no need for you to comment.

Trump is the American President. You should concern yourself with Merkel. Foreigners' opinions on American politics are non-essential.

While you're at it, replace your signature China wet market image with something American

How ironic coming from a foreigner. I would do as you say if you were the boss of me. But you aren't, so I won't. I consider soccer to be a foreign sport of gayness, and in America we are entitled to our opinion. German jackboot thuggery is frowned upon here.

Have a nice day.

Hasn’t Comcast recently added OAN?
And they recently started streaming on Pluto TV as well.
Meanwhile, Trump needs Fox for the coming elections.

we are the news. We are the people. That is what he is looking for. Citizen Joe’s to take the journalist handle.

Soccer is not my sport, I enjoy playing asphalt tackle American football with my neighbors in the street.

Are we even sure soccer IS a sport?

It seems fishy to me.

Trump meets countless people every day and doesn’t wear a mask or gloves and he still ain’t sick, so many Cavuto should shut his yap.

Cavuto's (and Pelosi's) theory that HQC will kill you if you take it, will be put to the test very soon. If Trump lives, we will know. If he is alive in a week, what will Waterhead Cavuto say then?

Watching it seems like watching fish go after a poor ball of dough (euro carp fishing reference) they dodge and swim and can’t even get it into the net for ever for like hours and hours. I drank a lot of pints in a pub in London once not pretending to like soccer, that was fun. They thought and were right, I was an American soccer hater.

You enjoy being stupid. You posted to me. Add to that, I told you I am an American citizen in the thread you were Trolling me two days ago. You are still angry.

I told you repeatedly that I am an American citizen just two days ago. But your butt-hurt is affecting your brain. I gave you a helpful suggestion so you won't look insane.

Btw jackboot thuggery is you telling me I am not American and should not freely reply to you:

My comment was a general comment and not directed at you. I was addressing Americans, so there's no need for you to comment.
I will have great day.
You enjoy another butt-hurt day, earned for yourself by thinking you have the brains to Troll me.

Fox News - specifically Tucker, Sean, Laura, and Mark Levin - has been indispensable in Trump's defense and in counter punching the Political Left and the Deep State.

Only Rush Limbaugh connects with a larger national audience.

Without those five media personalities and Tom Fitton (Judicial Watch), Trump would have no chance for reelection.

Trump makes great campaign speeches, but he has no clue how to defend himself in the current political environment.
