Donald Trump appears to be enraged by claims that Fox News hosts cut off the former president's rant over his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris' Democratic National Convention address.
Hosts Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum abruptly cut Trump off while he repeatedly bashed Harris' Democratic nomination acceptance speech.
"She’s not having success. I’m having success," the ex-president claimed on the nearly ten-minute-long call. "I’m doing great with the Hispanic voters. I’m doing great with Black men. I’m doing great with women, because women want safety."

Eventually shutting down the rambling MAGA hopeful, Baier said, "We appreciate that live feedback."
In a post via Truth Social early Sunday morning, he wrote: "Bret Baier of FoxNews called me, I didn’t call him, just prior to the Kamala Convention speech, and asked me if I would like to critique her after she is finished. I agreed to do so! — I thought it was nonspecific and weak, with no fracking, crime, inflation or anything else of interest even mentioned."
He added, "Delivery was a C+, with far too many and speedy 'thank you’s' at the beginning. It was 'WEIRD!'"
Furthermore, the former president claimed to be a "ratings machine" while bashing the New York Times as "fake news" media.

"Likewise, I didn’t call other media outlets that asked me to go on, they called me," he claimed. "The Fake News, like often 'gilted' Maureen Dowd of the failing New York Times, wrote incorrectly that I was making the calls. WRONG!!! I don’t have to make calls to go on TV, or anything else — They call me! It’s called Ratings, I guess, and I’m the 'Ratings Machine!'"
Several political experts mocked the ex-president's latest claims.
Washington post reporter Josh Dawsey wrote: "What’s on Trump’s mind this AM 10 weeks before the election? @maureendowd wrote that he called into Fox on Thursday to respond to Kamala Harris, but he says in this long post that Fox called him first."
Talking Points Memo founder Josh Marshall commented: "I was soooooo not making the calls, or seeming desperate and pathetic or anything! Don’t report that I was desperate! (Also who gilted Maureen? They sprayed her w gold paint?)"
