(The Hill) – Fox News anchor Bret Baier said Thursday that he made “a mistake” in not including a specific clip of former President Trump during his interview with Vice President Harris on Wednesday.

During his interview the previous day with the vice president on Fox News’s “Special Report,” Harris and Baier sparred over a clip concerning former President Trump’s “enemy from within” comments about rivals.

Baier showed a clip that came from a town hall broadcast earlier in the day via Fox News’s “The Faulkner Focus” in which Trump said he is “not threatening anybody.”

“That clip was not what he has been saying about the enemy from within. … That’s not what you just showed,” Harris said to the Fox News anchor.

“You didn’t show that, and here is the bottom line: He has repeated it multiple times, and you and I both know that, and you and I both know he has talked about turning the military on the American people.”

Baier said on “Special Report” on Thursday that he “did make a mistake” when it came to clips shown in the interview.

“I wanna say that I did make a mistake,” Baier said, with Fox News’s Harris Faulkner also on his show, in a clip highlighted by Mediaite. “When I called for a sound bite, I was expecting a piece of ‘the enemy from within,’ from Maria Bartiromo’s interview to be tied to the piece from your town hall, Harris, where you asked the former president about ‘the enemy from within.’”

In an interview on Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo last weekend, Trump brushed off concerns from President Biden about Election Day not being peaceful, and said that he believes “the bigger problem is the enemy from within, not even the people that have come in and destroyed our country.”

“I think the bigger problem are the people from within,” Trump said. “We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics.”

The Hill has reached out to the Harris campaign.
