Furious Donald Trump demands Fox News stop showing unflattering photos of him looking ‘big and orange’ with his ‘chin pulled way back’
- Donald Trump, 77, has always loved Fox News and is known as a regular viewer
Donald Trump has demanded that Fox News stop using unflattering photos of him looking “big and orange” with his “chin all the way back.”
The 77-year-old Trump also accused the cable network of not showing polling data in which he beats Biden “by a lot.”
The former US president loved the right-wing news channel and is known to be a regular viewer of their morning program ‘Fox and Friends’.
While the channel largely supported him in the US media throughout his presidency, Trump’s views on the network plummeted after it first called the crucial state of Arizona for Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election, according to The Telegraph.
Trump said on his Truth Social platform, “Why don’t Fox and Friends show all the polls where I beat Biden, by a piece. They just don’t!

“They also purposely show the absolute worst pictures of me, especially that big ‘orange’ picture with my chin pulled all the way back.”
He added: ‘They think they’re getting away with something, but they’re not. Just like 2016 all over again… And then they want me to debate!”
It comes after Trump complained about the lack of air conditioning at a campaign event in New Hampshire earlier this month, saying, “You know what the press will say? They’ll say Trump didn’t look good. He was extremely wet. It’s 104 or 105 degrees (40C) here. But we’re fine with it, aren’t we?’
Fox News will host the first debate of the Milwaukee Republican presidential primary next Wednesday.
Trump has already suggested he will not attend, despite being one of eight candidates who passed the party’s fundraising and voting threshold.
Fox executives are apparently so desperate for Trump’s participation that their top executive Suzanne Scott and President Jay Wallace went to Bedminster to lobby him.
But suspicions remain that Trump is planning counterprogramming to outdo his opponents via a campaign event or interview on Wednesday.
According to a new poll from Quinnipiac University, 47 percent support Biden and 46 percent support Trump.
