Trump turns against favorite network after shock poll
Share and Follow

Donald Trump continued his recent feud with Fox News, saying liberal commentator Jessica Tarlov’s appearances are what ‘make MAGA absolutely hate’ the network. 

Trump posted to Truth Social Friday: ‘Why does Fox News allow failed TV personality Jessica Tarlov to ‘soil’ The Five? Her voice, her manner, and above all else, what she says, are a disgrace to television broadcasting.’

The president appears to be reacting to Tarlov – the most consistent Trump-hating voice on the show and network – discussing negative polling numbers on Friday’s show. 

‘I’ve had the best poll numbers that I’ve ever had, and she is constantly saying the exact opposite. The just out highly respected Rasmussen Poll is at 56%, Insider Advantage 54%, and many others are at 56% to 68%! Sadly, the audience has to listen to her spew off that I am doing poorly in the polls, while I am beating the democrats by 15%+ points and, more importantly, I just won an election against two candidates, Sleepy Joe and Kamala, in a Landslide by winning all 7 Swing States, and the Popular Vote by millions, with records broken everywhere!’

Trump still stood by commentators Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld, saying the pair are ‘terrific’ but that they ‘don’t see all of these poll numbers and can’t, therefore come to my defense. But I can!’

He continued: ‘Nobody can stand Tarlov! She lies over and over again, and MAGA is complaining, BIG LEAGUE, that she’s all over Fox. Watch their ratings go down by keeping her on the show — nobody wants to listen to her. Why doesn’t she talk about the fact that I had ZERO illegal aliens come into our Country last month, whereas Sleepy Joe Biden allowed 62,000 people in, many from prisons, mental institutions, and gangs.’

The president finished by writing that ‘people like Jessica Tarlov make MAGA absolutely hate Fox!’

Tarlov was citing polls that had Trump in the red with both independents and overall voters on key issues.

‘When we say the people don’t like this, they don’t like it. That doesn’t mean that Democrats aren’t still unpopular. That doesn’t mean I don’t know if the election was held again today Donald Trump might very well win again if it was.’

However, she said that ‘directionally’ the polling numbers are going against the president.

His comments Friday come after Trump went on a tear Thursday morning after a new Fox News Channel poll showed Americans split on the Republican’s immigration policy. 

‘The Crooked FoxNews Polls got the Election WRONG, I won by much more than they said I would, and have been biased against me for years. They are always wrong and negative,’ Trump posted to Truth Social. 

‘It’s why MAGA HATES FoxNews, even though their anchors are GREAT,’ Trump fumed. ‘This has gone on for years, but they never change the incompetent polling company that does their work.’ 

He then pointed to the latest survey. 

The poll, which was released Wednesday, showed Trump with a 46 percent approval rating overall, with another 54 percent disapproving of the job he’s done so far. 

His numbers on ‘border security’ were better – with 53 percent approving and 46 percent disapproving.

When voters were asked about ‘immigration’ his numbers were lower again. 

Forty-six percent said they approved and 53 percent said they disapproved.  

His lowest numbers were actually on the topic of ‘inflation,’ with 64 percent disapproving of Trump’s handling of this top economic issue, and just 34 percent approving.

Still, he took offense at how he was being rated on the border. 

‘Now a FoxNews poll comes out this morning giving me a little more than 50% at the Border, and yet the Border is miraculously perfect, NOBODY WAS ABLE TO COME IN LAST MONTH,’ he wrote. ‘60,000 people came in with Sleepy Joe in the same month last year.’

‘I hate FAKE pollsters, one of the Worst, but Fox will never change their discredited pollster!’ the president complained. 

The outburst came Thursday morning as the world continued to wait and see whether the United States would join Israel in its current bombing campaign against Iran. 

The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday night that Trump had signed off on an attack plan for Iran but the president had yet to issue a final order. 

Overnight Thursday the U.S. did not get involved in the week-long war between Israel and Iran. 

‘The Wall Street Journal has No Idea what my thoughts are concerning Iran!’ also wrote on Truth Social Thursday morning. 

The president also slammed Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell – who he appointed – after the Fed decided Wednesday not to push interest rates down as Trump has demanded. 

‘”Too Late” Jerome Powell is costing our Country Hundreds of Billions of Dollars. He is truly one of the dumbest, and most destructive, people in Government, and the Fed Board is complicit,’ Trump wrote. 

‘Europe has had 10 cuts, we have had none,’ he continued. ‘We should be 2.5 Points lower, and save $BILLIONS on all of Biden’s Short Term Debt.’ 

‘We have LOW inflation! TOO LATE’s an American Disgrace!’ Trump wrote. 

Overall on the economy, the Fox News poll found that 40 percent of registered voters approved of the job Trump was doing, while 58 percent disapproved.
