The last day of Donald Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign began just after 7 a.m., as polls opened on the East Coast, with a call to “Fox & Friends,” the television morning show that had turned the reality star into a U.S. president. He got his usual hero’s welcome. But it was no longer enough.
“This has been a very special show for me,” he told the hosts of this broadcasting safe haven where he had workshopped his birther message, shared gossip and conspiracy theories, and repeatedly set the tone for his entire administration’s day. “We’ve had a great relationship, and you have a great show. So, it’s my honor.” But his remarks quickly turned pointed that Tuesday morning as he boasted about how well he had done in the job of president, despite unexpected challenges — not from China or Russia or North Korea, he said, but from the United States. And he mused rhetorically about what had changed the most for him since 2016.
“Fox,” he said, answering his own question. “It’s much different now.” As the hosts sputtered, he elaborated: “In the old days, they wouldn’t put sleepy Joe Biden on every time he opened his mouth. . . . It’s a much different operation — I’m just telling you.”

And of course Paul Ryan never wanted Trump.
No more Fox at my house. Including Tucker and Judge Jeanine. It’s all the same company, and I’m not giving the company my patronage.
I unsubscribed from Fox News on youtube.
Kept Tucker Carlson and Greg Gutfeld.
And now for last week’s news...
I didn’t watch Tucker when he was on CNN. Why watch him when he’s on Fox?
Aren’t you giving Fox hits by watching it’s hosts on YouTube?
actual segment is less than 6min.

26 Jan 2016: Breitbart: The Anti-Trump Network: Fox News Money Flows into Open Borders Group
by Julia Hahn
The announcement from Donald Trump’s campaign that the Republican frontrunner will “definitely not” partake in Thursday night’s Fox News debate has sent shock waves throughout the nation’s political scene.
At a press event Tuesday evening, Trump seemed to cite disparate treatment from the network as his reasoning for not participating. “What’s wrong over there, something’s wrong,” Trump said of the “games” Roger Ailes and the network are “playing.”
In asking the question of “what’s wrong over there?” Trump has shined a spotlight on one of Washington’s best kept secrets: namely, Fox’s role via its founder Rupert Murdoch in pushing an open borders agenda. The Trump campaign is a direct threat to Murdoch’s efforts to open America’s borders. Well-concealed from virtually all reporting on Fox’s treatment of Trump is the fact that Murdoch is the co-chair of what is arguably one of the most powerful immigration lobbying firms in country, the Partnership for a New American Economy (PNAE).
In addition to blanketing the country, media, and politicians with literature, advertisements, and a barrage of lobbyists pushing for open border immigration policies, the Partnership for A New American Economy (PNAE) was a prime lobbyist for one of the biggest open borders pushes in American history: Marco Rubio’s 2013 Gang of Eight immigration bill...
While Megyn Kelly made headlines with her heated questioning of Donald Trump, not one of the Fox News anchors asked Rubio in the first Fox News debate about his signature piece of legislation, which Murdoch’s immigration lobbying firm had endorsed. Instead, they lobbed Rubio a series of softballs, such as asking Rubio if he could put God and veterans in the same sentence.
Interestingly, Bill Sammon — FOX News’s vice president of News and Washington managing editor — is the father of Brooke Sammon, who is Rubio’s press secretary...
Sen. Rubio introduced legislation last year — the Immigration Innovation Act — which would have tripled H-1B visa issuances. This legislation was endorsed by Murdoch via the Partnership for a New American Economy, on whose board also sits Disney CEO Bob Iger...
As any casual viewer of Fox News would observe, one sees scant to any coverage at all on the record-setting, foreign-born population inside the United States; nor coverage of census findings that immigration is about to surpass all historical records; nor stories on the total number of immigrants allowed into the country each year and the strain this number puts on education, the economy, the welfare states and the profound changes to U.S. culture. By not covering these issues in any real depth, it helps clear the way for the enactment of the Murdoch-backed immigration agenda — bringing in the New American Century hoped for by Rupert Murdoch, Marco Rubio, and Barack Obama.

I’m glad many fellow Trumpers are now smelling the Fox stench. Dump it all.
I think Tucker was on MSNBC in his bow tie wearing days.
Fox calling AZ for Biden so quickly was a signal to the other media outlets that Fox was on their side.
His other newspapers around the world are mostly left-leaning, so it was just business for Fox, not an ideology.
NewsCorp also owns Harper-Collins, the publisher who printed Jim Acosta's anti-Trump book Enemy of the People.
Fox has always had smarmy Trump haters like Chris Wallace.
Lord Palmerston: “Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests.”
Faux was counting on Republicans repudiating Trump.
In fact, the opposite happened, Trump increased his hold over the GOP.
I’ve been a longtime viewer of Fox & Friends every morning for over a decade. NO MORE!!! They are now pathetic. I feel sorry for the hosts but I will not watch them anymore because of the way they’ve changed.
The only thing I watch (and record) is Tucker, Hannity & Laura Ingraham. Otherwise, Fox is dead to me.
It’s OAN & Newsman TV all the way!!!
CNN.
He was also on CNN, when CNN was more watchable
Fake news, as always. It IS over.
Credit where credit is due. CNN Tucker and Fox Tucker are two very different beasts. CNN Tucker was token conservative whipping boy and played the role they were paying him to play. Fox Tucker has been one of the most outspoken and effective conservative voices over the past year.
What will be interesting is that now that Fox is making it clear that they just want the conservatives to be tokens will Tucker go back to being a court jester or will he keep his principles and tell them to shove it? Remains to be seen.(by whoever is still watching Fox)
“ I think Tucker was on MSNBC in his bow tie wearing days.”
You see? I didn’t pay enough attention to him to even know. Just like I no longer will pay attention to ANYTHING on or about Fox.
One of the irritating things on Tucker’s show has been his practice of showing clips from msnbc and cnn, to mock them. The thing is, I don’t care what’s on those networks and I never watch them, so it’s of no interest what their hosts are saying. Now, as of last week, the same goes for Fox itself. I’m simply uninterested in FNC anymore and won’t be watching anything on it.
The only way to really make them feel it is to cut cable.
If Winston Smith had the option of not paying a monthly fee to have his telescreen go away, you don’t think he would have chosen that option?
You have that option!
and withholding the call for Florida...
