Chuck Grassley Questions if Fox News Even Wants Donald Trump Re-Elected

Republican Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley on Saturday questioned if Fox News even wants to see Donald Trump get re-elected in November, criticizing a Friday town hall interview the president did with host Sean Hannity.

Grassley echoed one of Trump's frequent criticisms against Fox News by asking if the cable news network has any loyalty to the president. The Iowa GOP senator's challenge comes hours after Trump and his longtime supporter, Hannity, conducted an interview taped Friday in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

The senator particularly complained that Hannity allowed Trump to "digress," which prevented him from touting his efforts to stack the U.S. Supreme Court with conservative justices.

Newsweek reached out to both the White House and Grassley's Washington office for additional remarks Saturday morning.

I know that Hannity isn't a reporter, and has no obligation to be objective or even factual, but is it really Hannity's job to make sure that Trump stays focused? Grassley makes it sound like it's Hannity's fault that Trump can't answer the softball questions Hannity was serving up.

are worried because they are deep in the corruption with trump. They know what has been going on, the know trump should have been removed from office, but they voted to NOT remove him.

With the news of Russia putting a bounty on American and English troops, they are now going to have a hell of time trying to defend trump.

Part of the requirements for a job in his administration must include being corrupt, ignorant but loyal. Particularly, loyal. Barr is a good example.

Didn't he used to have a modicum of independence and self respect, or am I remembering incorrectly?
