Donald Trump got some bad news.
Trump will not be happy with what just happened on Fox News Channel.
And this big name at Fox News just said the one thing that will leave Trump red with rage.
“Fox and Friends” co-host Brian Kilmeade was one of Donald Trump’s biggest supporters at Fox News.
But recently Kilmeade’s become the biggest name opinion host at Fox News to break with Trump over the 2020 election.
Kilmeade appeared on Fox News Channel’s “Media Buzz” program and told host Howie Kurtz that Trump hurt both the country and his 2024 prospects by not accepting defeat in the 2020 elections.
“Yeah, I do,” Kilmeade responded when asked by Kurtz if Trump played into the media’s hands by continuing to claim massive voter fraud stole the 2020 election. “I think that in life, you have to learn to lose. Hillary Clinton has to learn that. You know, Al Gore pretty much did learn that. Stacey Abrams didn’t learn that.”
Kilmeade compared what happened to Trump in 2020 to the 1824 presidential election where the House of Representatives voted to hand the presidency to John Quincy Adams over Andrew Jackson in what Jackson supporters dubbed “The Corrupt Bargain.”
Jackson used the controversial outcome of the 1824 election as a springboard for victorious presidential campaigns in 1828 and 1832.
The “Fox and Friends” co-host said Donald Trump had his chance in court to prove voter fraud.
“And if you did, in fact, get screwed out of this election, put together an A-team list of lawyers — not the ones we witnessed — and show us the districts and show us how,” Kilmeade began.
But Kilmeade noted that Trump filed dozens of legal challenges in key swing states.
“I have not seen any of that,” Kilmeade said of Trump’s claims of voter fraud.
However, judges refused to hear many of these cases before President Trump’s lawyers presented their evidence.
“In life, we have to learn to lose, Democrats and Republicans,” Kilmeade continued.
Kurtz then asked Kilmeade if it was an example of media bias for news outlets to claim Trump never provided evidence of voter fraud.
“Is it anti-Trump by the media to report the fact that there is no significant evidence of widespread fraud?” Kurtz asked.
“It isn’t,” Kilmeade answered.
Kilmeade added that Trump “re-litigating 2020 is not helping the country.”
“That doesn’t help the country,” Kilmeade concluded.
Polls show that supermajorities of Republicans believe the 2020 election was rigged.
Beyond Donald Trump’s claims of mass voter fraud, the fact that some states illegally changed vote-by-mail laws and that social media companies suppressed negative stories about Joe Biden are not in dispute.
The Constitution requires changes to elections to originate with the state legislature.
But in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, partisan Democrat officials and judges usurped state legislatures’ authority to pass laws to change election administration.
Twitter and Facebook banned users from sharing a New York Post report about the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop.
Kilmeade’s comments are sure to infuriate Donald Trump and it will only serve to exacerbate the love-hate relationship Trump has with Fox News in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election.
