Donald Trump’s feud against Fox News is waging on but now he’s signaling his inclination to take this battle to court. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a statement to his TRUTH Social, Trump threatened to sue Fox News for airing political ads produced by the anti-Trump group The Lincoln Project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The Perverts and Lowlifes of the Lincoln Project are back on, where else, Fox News. I thought they ran away to the asylum after their last catastrophic campaign, with charges made against them that were big time sleaze, and me getting many millions more votes in 2020 than I got in 2016,” Trump wrote. “The Paul Ryun (sic) run Fox only has high standards for \u201cTrump\u201d ads, but not for anyone else. The Perverts should not be allowed to \u201cfalse advertise,\u201d and Fox News should not allow it to happen. See you all in Court!!!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump seems to be referencing former House Speaker Paul Ryan in his remark. Ryan left Congress in 2019 and joined the Fox Corporation board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Mediaite<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, Fox News didn\u2019t even sell a national advertising spot to The Lincoln Project, given the political advocacy group typically makes local ad buys through cable providers in, say, Palm Beach or Bedminster, New Jersey. (Update: Lincoln Project confirms that the ad that raised Trump\u2019s ire ran \u201con cable news in Bedminster, NJ,\u201d where Trump is currently residing. Fox News also confirmed to Mediaite that this was a local buy and they did not run a Lincoln Project ad.)<\/p>

When reached for comment, Lincoln Project co-founder\u00a0Rick Wilson<\/strong>\u00a0told Mediaite: \u201cIn 2020, The Lincoln Project took up a long-term free lease in Trump\u2019s brain. His threat to sue the Lincoln Project today is like Trump himself; impotent, flabby, and pathetic.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
