The ongoing dynamic between Trump and Fox News continues to evolve as seen through Stephen Miller's recent criticism of Fox's polling methods. While Trump expressed dissatisfaction publicly, labeling Fox as 'not our friend', the relationship remains deeply interconnected. The back-and-forth commentary surrounding Trump’s polling numbers illustrates a symbiotic connection where both sides rely on each other for support and narrative shaping. Despite occasional tensions, such as criticism from Trump's advisers, the relationship shows no signs of fracture, drawing parallels to the complexities of celebrity relationships in the public eye.
Miller's comment was one more version of the same anti-polling talking points the White House has been issuing in response to the president's ratings.
Trump might seem to be the one making the decisions. 'FOX NEWS IS NOT OUR FRIEND,' he announced in the days leading up to the 2024 election.
The bond between the president and the network is thoroughly symbiotic, and as such thoroughly stable.
Miller offered a testy reply: 'I don't want to make things awkward for you, John, but it is our opinion that Fox News needs to fire its pollster.'
