    There’s bad blood between Fox News and Donald Trump…

    Donald Trump took aim Wednesday at Fox News board member and former GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan on social media.

    Trump tore into “a very disloyal” Ryan on Truth Social, citing the infamous former House Speaker as the reason why “nobody can ever trust Fox News.”

    “Nobody can ever trust Fox News, and I am one of them, with the weak and ineffective RINO, Paul Ryan, on its Board of Directors,” Trump wrote. “He’s a total lightweight, a failed and pathetic Speaker of the House, and a very disloyal person. Romney was bad, but Paul Ryan made him look worse. As a team, they never had a chance. Rupert and Lachlan, get that dog off your Board – You don’t need him. ALL YOU NEED IS TRUMP. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

    Ryan called Trump “unfit for office” during a June 11 interview with Fox News’ Neil Cavuto. When Cavuto asked Ryan about viewers who disliked him and believed he was “pulling the strings” at Fox, Ryan responded he had “been in politics a long time” and had “really thick skin.”

    Ryan made clear in early May that he would write in a different candidate’s name because “character is too important.” The anti-Trump Republican also said, “Everyone knows we will well lose the election if we nominate this guy again.”

    Trump attacked the 2012 vice presidential candidate’s choice to back a different candidate in November.

    “Rupert Murdoch should fire pathetic RINO Paul Ryan from the Board of Fox. Ryan is a loser, always has been, and always will be,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “He was the WEAKEST & MOST INCOMPETENT Speaker of the House in its History. Fox will sink to the absolute bottom of the pack if Paul Ryan has anything to do with it!”

    1. ryan was Speaker when Trump was the President. Ryan hated Trump and did not anything to help to take care of the Borders and everything else. Ryan is still po’ed that they lost the President with the other clown Mitt. Both ryan and mitt are both are really both Liberals. ryan’s wife is a liberal.

    2. I eft Fox News as soon as they put Paul Ryan in as a Director. He was useless as a Represenative and Speaker of the House, and I realized that he would be useless as a Director of Fox News.

    3. Everyone knows that Paul Ryan has personal issues with Donald Trump. Can we all just get over our personal issues….his manner, his hair, his abruptness, etc., and remember his record. Next time around will even be better. He will be more selective in whom he can trust. There is no other candidate who could hold up under the tremendous pressure this current political world has established. The world is upside down due to no U.S. leadership. Fox made a huge mistake in this hire!!!!
