LOL! Fox & Friends covers new Fox News poll, leaves out part showing Trump losing to Dems

https://www.mediaite.com/tv/fox-friends-covers-fox-news-poll-completely-ignores-part-showing-trump-down-big-to-2020-rivals/In the brand new survey, Trump is shown lagging behind the top six Democratic candidates in some cases, well behind. The poll has former Vice President Joe Biden leading Trump by a whopping nine points at this stage of the race. Former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg also has a commanding eight point margin over the president. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) has opened up a six point lead on Trump, and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is currently up by five. South Bend, IN Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) also lead Trump in the survey.
But Fox & Friends failed to mention any of that on Sunday morning in their five-minute segment breaking down the numbers. Instead, Fox & Friends Sunday hosts Griff Jenkins, Lisa Boothe, and Pete Hegseth zeroed in on a poll number which showed 42 percent of voters believe Trump and the Republican party are most responsible for the current economy.
Its really quite apparent that the Democrats, no matter who it is youve got to run against a booming economy, a booming stock market, and wages on the rise, Jenkins said.
Voters say I just cant give credit to [former President Barack] Obama for that anymore,' Hegseth added, It has to be President Trump.'

Voters arent stupid, Jenkins said.

Fox is to news as professional is to wrestling.
Best moment was when the news division called the election for Obama in 08 and how sad they were.

(11,605 posts)7. This is very typical with the Fox poll
Contrary to what many people think, the actual poll conducted by Fox News is a pretty good poll, conducted by reputable Democratic and Republican polling firms. But the way they report it is often skewed in terms of what they focus on.
