So Not-Fetch: Trump Lashes Out at Fox News For Trying To Make One Of His Opponents ‘Happen’

Former President Donald Trump lashed out at Fox News for abandoning one of his rivals in order to try and make another presidential contender “happen” — which he predicted won’t. Happen, that is.

When he’s not holding rallies where he generates headlines about parroting the language of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler or still thinking Obama is the president, or giving interviews along similar lines, Trump is a frequent poster to his Truth Social platform. While it lasts.

Those posts usually take the form of text rants with copious use of ALL CAPS WITH EXCLAMATION POINTS about things like “STOLLEN” elections. But Trump also sometimes posts brief video rants shot at one of his golf properties that are remarkable in their ability to recreate the elements of those text rants.

Going into the long Thanksgiving weekend, Trump dumped a bunch of those video rants in rapid succession, on a variety of topics.

In one of those rants, Trump channeled Gretchen’s mean friends in Mean Girls by telling Fox News that no matter how hard they try, they aren’t going to make Nikki Haley “happen” in much the same way that “Fetch” was supposedly never going to happen:

Fox News gave up on Ron DeSanctimonious as he’s turned out to be a disaster. Now they’re pushing Birdbrain. You know who that is? Nikki Haley. They just haven’t learned and probably they never will. It’s just not happening.

According to a transcript search, however, recent coverage of Haley and DeSantis on Fox News contains about the same number of mentions, with DeSantis slightly higher.

Mentions of Trump in recent coverage, on the other hand, are about nonuple those of DeSantis or Haley, although raw mentions are an imperfect measure of coverage. But there are relatively few negative mentions of Trump on the network.
