Hmmm I wonder why they would do this…

quote:

Fox Business misled viewers on a poll that had former President Donald Trump beating President Joe Biden, posting the graphic's numbers in a way to suggest Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was performing better than Trump against the incumbent.


quote:

Trump led Biden by 2 points 48%-46% in the Fox News poll, but the on-screen graphic shown by Fox Business listed Biden's lower support first next to Trump's name, suggesting Trump was trailing the incumbent when he was actually leading.


quote:

listed DeSantis versus Biden right below, showing Biden's 47% support next to DeSantis' name — ostensibly suggesting DeSantis was drawing a 3-point lead despite having mere 44% support and trailing Biden and doing worse than Trump


quote:

The full GOP primary poll results: Trump 60% DeSantis 13% Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy 11% Former U.N. Ambassador and South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley 5% Former Vice President Mike Pence 3% Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina 3% Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie 2%

Fox doesn't want Trump.

The Ronbots have largely given up, but the Foxbots apparently haven't gotten the memo that their guy is a dud like their last guy Jeb!

And people laughed when Trump said "fake news".

Yes they did.

Tbh I kind of like Haley as a return to normalcy candidate, but she has a snowball’s chance in hell to get the nomination so might as well line up behind trump now and step on the culture war gas to whatever comes next

Fox is in it for DeSantis vs Newsom, IMHO.

Don't worry OP, there will be a new poll tomorrow and I'm certain you'll share it with us if Donald looks good in it.
