Former President Donald Trump recently complained about his opponent, President Joe Biden’s coverage on Fox News ahead of their debate.
Tonight’s debate is scheduled at 9 p.m. EST and airing from CNN’s Atlanta studios and it seems to be far from the forefront of Trump’s mind as he spent the morning expressing his deep discontent at the conservative media outlet. In an all-caps post on his website, Truth Social, the former president blasted anchor Dana Perino.
It has been noted that Perino’s sin was interviewing Michael Tyler, the communication director for President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign. Perino did not lob any softballs, at one point rejecting Tyler’s claim that Trump was personally responsible for the economic damage caused by COVID-19, asking: “Would President Biden have kept businesses open during the pandemic?”
Trump didn’t seem to notice, taking offense at Tyler receiving a platform in the first place.
“WHY DOES FOXNEWS PUT ON SO MANY BIDEN PEOPLE, LIKE MICHAEL TYLER, COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR FOR BIDEN, WHO SPEWED LIES WITH VERY LITTLE PUSHBACK?” he wrote. “AMAZING!!!”
Perhaps what Trump took offense to was Perino’s manners. “You represent your boss very well and make a good case,” she told Tyler.
As for Trump, the former president spent the rest of his morning raging about his competition: “JOE BIDEN IS A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY, AND A THREAT TO THE SURVIVAL AND EXISTENCE OF OUR COUNTRY ITSELF!!!”
