In a recent fiery exchange of words, former President Donald Trump didn’t hold back when he called out Paul Ryan, labeling him as “weak and pathetic” and demanding his removal from the board of directors at Fox Corporation. The feud between the two prominent figures reignited after Ryan, known for his past roles as Speaker of the House and Mitt Romney’s running mate in 2012, voiced his disapproval of Trump’s fitness for presidency.
Trump wasted no time in publicly expressing his disdain for Ryan, criticizing him as “disloyal” and a “failed and pathetic” Speaker of the House. The former President didn’t mince his words, emphasizing that having Ryan on the board undermines the credibility of Fox News, a sentiment echoed by many conservative Americans who view Ryan as part of the political establishment resistant to Trump’s agenda.
President Trump just called out Fox News on Truth Social for working with the “weak and ineffective RINO Paul Ryan” who is on the Fox Board of Directors.
