Fox Desperate To Downplay Trump's 'Dictator' Threat
As the news broke that some of Trump's allies are trying to run away from Kash Patel's remarks about jailing journalists, Fox is also trying to downplay Trump's "dictator" remarks as just a "joke."

But according to The Washington Post, Trump's camp is starting to worry about all the backlash comments like this from both Trump's allies and the former president himself are generating.
One Trump adviser said of the Patel comments, “Idiotic comments like this have nothing to do with our campaign.”
