Former President Trump renewed his attacks on Fox News this week, accusing the network of underplaying a new poll showing him with a double-digit lead on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in a potential 2024 Republican presidential primary match-up.

Trump, in reference to the Fox News poll published Sunday that showed him leading DeSantis by 15 points in a hypothetical match-up, knocked the media giant for “promoting” DeSantis “so hard and so much that there’s not much time left for Real News.”

“Reminds me of 2016 when they were pushing ‘JEB!’ The new Fox Poll, which have always been purposely terrible for me, has ‘TRUMP Crushing DeSanctimonious,’ but they barely show it,” Trump wrote. “Isn’t there a big, beautiful, Network which wants to do well, and make a fortune besides? FAKE NEWS!”

I’ve never known a single person that has such a penchant for self destruction as Don.

He just doesn't get it. SMH. He's like a two year old, well, actually, there are two year olds who act more mature and sensible.

Trump promoted Rubio.

Hmmm, not sure about that, more than half of the voters in PA voted for a braindead moron.

Jeb is just trying to make himself relevant by playing Randy Remora to the DeSantis shark. Jeb was barely relevant in 2016, reached irrelevance in 2020 and through hard work continues to stay there.

Yep..., you are right. GO TRUMP GO!!!
I’m in his camp cheer-leading!

[pollywog]

We know Trump’s policies work. He has a record to run on. No one cares about his attack style.

HUGE DITTOS!!!

No, he’s not. He’s pointing out that FOX News is giving his political opponent free advertising.

[vivenne]

You are hilarious. A personal issue? It’s politics.

[vivenne]

In case you are blind, I think he’s busy with a few bogus election lawsuits of his own brought by people like the DA of Fulton County. It would be quite stupid for him to get involved as you suggest.

[vivenne]

So you’d rather be controlled by the Deep State element of the Republican party?

“Issues Don issues. Focus on that please.

This IS one of the primary issues.”

I see; Fox and how they report on DeSantis is more important than Ukraine, inflation, the border, China infiltrating this country, Iran, North Korea and so forth. Thanks for enlightening us.

“Couldn’t even watch Levin last night. Tick. DT is right as usual”

Hear no evil see no evil speak no evil. Which monkey are you?

[Pirate Ragnar]

“But that’s what people love. Trump being Trump.”

That used to be true in a sense. Now it is pissing on his own shoes and possibly losing the election.

Capitalism extends to politics.

[vivenne]

I think you are the monkey. A drunk monkey who is making no sense.

As usual, a DeSanctimonious Supporter steps up and either leaves out crucial context in order to understand an issue where Trump is concern, or twists the issue into a logic pretzel.

If a so-called "Conservative" News source, like FoxNews, picks a sides and shades the truth, leaves out crucial information for understanding an issue, reports only the positive issues where one candidate is concerned, and limits the reporting positive issues where the other candidate is concerned, or hides completely something like Vote Fraud that is central to the issues of one candidate, then yes Dufus, it is one of the central issues of the day.

These choices that FoxNews, who purports they are objective to both sides (FALSE), affects the very foundation of our electoral system.

Funny you would list the Ukraine as a central issue, as that whole war is none of our business and should be ended today.
