Trump rips Neil Cavuto after Fox host said he 'decisively lost' debate
Former President Trump took a shot at Fox News host Neil Cavuto after the anchor said Trump lost this week's debate to Vice President Harris by a wide margin.
"Neil Cavuto, Fox’s Lowest Rated Anchor, is one of the WORST on Television. I actually prefer the losers at CNN and MSDNC," Trump wrote on his Truth Social website Wednesday.
Mediaite highlighted comments Cavuto made on Fox's air earlier Wednesday bashing Trump's performance against Harris.
“He decisively lost," Cavuto said. "He might have made very good presentations on where the economy was, but it was all over the map. This was that first occasion where it wasn’t just a close call, it was a lopsided one.”
Trump has attacked Fox News, like many mainstream media outlets, for months, accusing the network of bias against him and of boosting his political enemies.
The top-watched cable channel features a lineup of prime-time hosts who are vocally supportive of Trump, and the former president regularly calls in to his favorite programs on Fox after major news events.
Trump is advocating for a second debate hosted by Fox, though he said Wednesday he would prefer to have one of the network's leading opinion hosts moderate the event over one of its political journalists.
Harris has said she is willing to debate Trump again but is seen as unlikely to agree to a debate on a network that is frequently critical of her.
