Trump rips Fox News over ‘fake’ polls: ‘I do better with CNN’

Former President Trump tore into Fox News on Tuesday over its coverage of a poll showing him beating President Biden in a head-to-head match-up but losing to Vice President Harris.

“FoxNews will put up Fake Confidential Democrat Polls that were ‘leaked’ to them, but not Rasmussen or any of the REAL polling groups that have me way ahead,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social website. “What’s up with FOX? I do better with CNN!!!”

The former president appeared to reference a poll conducted by Democratic pollster Bendixen & Amandi showing him narrowly trailing Harris in a head-to-head match-up.

Fox anchor John Roberts highlighted the poll during a segment on “America Reports” on Tuesday.

Trump has for months ridiculed Fox, the top-watched cable news channel, accusing it of trying to boost his political enemies during the GOP primary and offering coverage that is too critical of him.

Several of Fox’s top hosts remain vocally supportive of Trump, including prime-time pundit Sean Hannity, who presented an interview with the former president on his show this week.
