Watching Shepard Smith’s program en route to El Paso, President Trump took to Twitter.
The commander-in-chief couldn’t hide his disdain for the Fox News anchor.
Mediaite’s Josh Feldman has more:
During Smith’s program Wednesday, Trump tweeted, “Watching Fake News CNN is better than watching Shepard Smith, the lowest rated show on @FoxNews. Actually, whenever possible, I turn to @OANN!”

Trump has occasionally criticized some people on Fox News, and this is not the first time he’s taken shots at Smith:
Were @FoxNews weekend anchors, @ArthelNeville and @LelandVittert, trained by CNN prior to their ratings collapse? In any event, that’s where they should be working, along with their lowest rated anchor, Shepard Smith!

….Ever since Andrew came to my office to ask that I appoint him to the U.S. Supreme Court, and I said NO, he has been very hostile! Also asked for pardon for his friend. A good “pal” of low ratings Shepard Smith.
