Donald Trump Trashes Fox Anchor Bret Baier After Fiery Interview

Former President Donald Trump’s interview last week with Bret Baier was marred by how the Fox News anchor didn’t come off like a MAGA fanboy, Trump complained Monday.

Appearing on Newsmax a few days after trashing Baier’s employer as “hostile,” Trump was asked about how he’d feel about participating in the GOP’s first scheduled primary debate in August, which Baier and Martha MacCallum will moderate.

Trump began by reiterating that it’s difficult for him to see the need to debate considering his wide polling lead. He then griped, again, that Fox News is “hostile” toward him.

“When I did the interview with Brett, I thought it was fine. I thought it was OK,” Trump told Eric Bolling in a lukewarm manner. “But there was nothing friendly about it. You know, it was nasty, and I thought I did a good job. I’ve been getting credit for doing a good job.”

Trump then gave the impression that he felt like Baier should have behaved more like a campaign surrogate.

“Everything was like an unfriendly… everything was unfriendly: no smiling, no ‘Let’s have fun, let’s make America great again.’ Everything was like a hit.”

Laura Ingraham Has ‘No Clue’ Why Vets Group Made Up Story Fox Ran Wild With

Offering up a “little update” on Friday night, Fox News host Laura Ingraham admitted that the story of homeless vets being displaced by migrants was a hoax, adding that she had “no clue” why a group would make up a story her network stoked days of outrage over.

A week after the New York Post reported the sensational tale of 20 “struggling homeless veterans” getting booted from upstate New York hotels to make room for asylum-seeking migrants, the story fell apart. In reality, Sharon Toney-Finch, the CEO of a veterans’ advocacy organization, had concocted the tall tale and apparently even recruited men from a homeless shelter to pose as the displaced vets for the media.

Of course, by the time the fraud was exposed, right-wing media had run wild with the story. Fox News led the way, airing dozens of on-air segments raging about Democrats placing the needs of “illegals” over the well-being of “people who served our country and need a little boost.” Ingraham, known for her anti-immigrant rhetoric, helped lead the charge.

“We know what the intention was,” Ingraham fumed on Tuesday night. “Second-class citizens are veterans. Primary, most celebrated citizens who get all of the benefits [are] non-citizens, fraudulent asylees into the United States.”

However, on Friday, it was time to eat a bit of crow after the GOP lawmaker who initially backed Toney-Finch’s claims reversed course and denounced her, claiming he was “devastated and disheartened” to discover she fabricated the whole thing. The New York State attorney general is now looking into whether any laws were broken by Toney-Finch and additional questions swirl around other claims she’s made about her military service.
