Fox News aired a report Sunday alleging that for the first time, GOP operatives are raising the possibility that President Trump may forego reelection if his poll numbers “don’t rebound.”
The report from senior correspondent Charlie Gasparino, political reporter Andrew O’Reilly, and producer Lydia Moynihan drew a sharp rebuke from the Trump campaign, which called it “the granddaddy of fake news.” It seems likely to reignite the president’s combustible relationship with Fox.
Per The Hill:
“It’s too early, but if the polls continue to worsen, you can see a scenario where he drops out,” a GOP operative who asked to remain anonymous told Fox News.
Gasparino also reported that one “major player” within the Republican Party described “Trump’s current psyche as ‘fragile.'”
For his part, Gasparino isn’t convinced.
not convinced yet; he’s got time and he’s running against an opponent who is literally hiding in his basement. Plus the public isn’t focusing yet on just how left wing @JoeBiden has become, so much so, he can bring himself to denounce rioting.

The Trump campaign pushed back on the report, citing polling from the last election showing then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton with a similar lead in June 2016.

Remember Trump was behind in his first run. WE DONT BELIEVE THE POLLS AND FAKE NEWS! DEMOCRATS ARE DESPERATE BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER US BUT JUST TO BEAT UP ON TRUMP! NO OF COURSE ITS ALL ANOTHER LIE …TRUMP WILL NOT DROP OUT … DEMS ARE
FUDGING THE POLL NUMBERS? AS USUAL
After the 2016 election, anyone who believes polls is nuts.
Has anyone besides me seen the cheat ear piece in Biden’s right ear? That’s how they hope to win debates – whisper in his ear. In 2016, Valerie Jarret stole the debate questions and handed them to Hillary early and she still struggled. Same thing will happen this time – only worse.
I have never been polled
Yep
I would put the “news” that Trump is dropping out in the same category as the “news” that Trump is Putin’s puppet. Ridiculous, stupid and asinine. Wishful thinking on the Democrats part.
Just like the lie that Mr. Trump really didn’t want to win election in the first place. Same lie, different wrapping.
Our president is way ahead of Biden credible sources say! Our president is not going to quit! This is the democrats fantasy wish! Our president is Gid’s anointed and will not drop out!
GOD’S ANOINTED SORRY FOR THE TYPO!
So disappointed in Fox and Charlie Gaspirano who is first rate gossip trying to justify his paycheck. He get on Fox busines and yaks and yaks like he is somebody
You are so correct – don’t watch Fox and won’t. You, me and Trump’s millions of Trump fans/voter know Pres. Trump is not a ‘quitter’…. actually this Gasparino just increased his determination. And you are so right-on, Gasparino is a nobody.
Gasparino and Cavuto are self-admitted never Trumpers. With Ryan’s help and the two Rupert’s sons you’l hear less and less of positive DJT news.
BYE BYE FOX NEWS. TUCKER, SEAN AND LOU ARE THE ONLY SHOWS I WATCH NOW. ONE AMERICA NEWS NETWORK IS WHERE TO GO FOR NEWS, NOT LIES AND OPINIONS.
CAVUTO/whom i can’t even look at or tolerate his voice, Gasparino who his a big ego with a small brain, and jedediah bila/weekend person, along with PAUL RYAN/RINO hating trump, have ruined it for me a long time ago. what a shame. i was such a loyal viewer, but i love President Trump, and those that hate him, hate him because THEY ALL HAVE SOMETHING TO HIDE, just like the DEMOCRATS. disgusting how corruption becomes a cancer.
Yes there was time when I really thought Fox News was the only News I DONOT think that way today I only watch LOU,Tucker,HANNITY and LAURA Fox has let you do many liberals in and they can say anything cruse any one Fox isn’t like a it use to be I know it’s fair and balance but it’s leaning towards the liberals Our Great President gets a lot of fake news on him
There is not any truth in the comments made by ¨GOP operatives raising the possibility that President Trump may forego reelection if his poll numbers don’t rebound.” Donald J. Trump is not a person who quits or gives up easily, especially in the face of some difficulty or danger. He will prevail and win by a landslide in November 2020 PRESERVING AMERICA´S FREEDOMS.
Have not watched Fox News since Megan Kelly opened the debate with her ridiculous question. There are no news reports, just opinions…
Well, FUX news has no credibility what so ever! They created a racist channel and allowed Louis farahkan to develop an Independence Day racist mooslime propaganda pitch, but pulled it because, “we the people” raised hell! Too late! You even fired your communist Ed Henry, but guess what? Too late! You can keep the rest your communist, we ain’t watching anymore, we have OAN and Newsmax and soon will have all your “ conservative stars”
I don’t believe any news about the president that does not come from a conservative source the media and the Democrat party and some Republicans have spent the last five years trying to destroy a man simply because he beat them is exposing them for who they are consider all the pressure he’s been put under Trump has done a fabulous job and should be reelected in a landslide
I agree, Fox has slipped since the kids took over. Try OAN, Sheryl Atkisson, Maria Bartiromo.
Tucker and Sean are the only ones worth listening to. Chris Wallace is a waste and has been for a long time.
They only tell the truth according to Mahess…
Gasparino is full of s***! God can’t these reporters come out ever and tell the truth, completely disgusting. I quit watching FOX watch OAN they tell the truth.
President Trump has never been a quitter. Even when things got bad in his business, he worked harder and made things right – same path I have taken in my own life. This is truly the granddaddy of fake news. When its source is identified, it will have come from John Weaver, Rick Wilson, Stuart Stevens, Steve Schmidt, Tara Setmayer, George Conway, Reed Galen or one of the other “operatives” who want to see Republicans lose in November. Do these fools really want a leftist Supreme Court and a socialist government? If they think Democrats will trust them and thank them for tanking Republicans, then they are the world’s greatest fools. They are well on their way to becoming total political outcasts. Good riddance to the Benedict Arnolds of today.
I agree President Trump is not a quitter and I don’t believe in the polls. I am behind the President 100% and don’t listen to the news. Go President Trump and God Bless you and America. Republicans should stick together for a change.
Fox news is going to the left, far left, get your facts straight.
The one thing I can tell about Gasparino, and Cavuto they were never Trumpers..He also uses the term I hear from sources that, is so Bogus. To the moron Josmo if you had a half abrain your head would tilt..The individuals on CNN and MSNBC all need Lobotomies.
FOX has lost all credibility. Except for a few people on FOX, the rest have become left wing idiots. I watch OANN exclusivly.
Right on, Lisa- Gasparino is like so many other Italians, particularly ‘judge’ Napolitano whom Fox News should have gotten rid of long ago. They’re fickle as hell and can’t be trusted—-and regardless of what they say they’re all Democrats! Trump will blow away Biden and I’ve said it before. Check with The Daily Advance in Elizabeth City, NC and find out about when they printed my letter predicting Trump’s 1st win. Also, check withe Perquimons Weekly in Hertford, NC. They printed tons of letters where I said the same thing. The Party also picked up on me being the 1st to call godly Americans ‘patriots’. It wasn’t said until I said it in the Daily Advance every time they published one of my many letters.
Just like the United States Congress, when we had RINO Ryan in charge. He’s the problem with FOX, he’s so jealous of OUR President, he can’t think straight. He just keeps proving what an a**hole and irrelevant he is.
FAKE NEWS! OUR PRESIDENT IS NOT A QUITTER! GASPARINO IS A POSEUR!
??????????????
FOX NEWS!!!!
This is the same old crap we get from the news media. It is always shouda, couda, wouda, or maybe. Then the other pinhead reporters pick up on these outrageous claims and treat them as if they are fact. Does anyone in authority at these ‘news’ outlets ever check the veracity of these articles? I seriously doubt it. I put the odds of President Trump dropping out of the election because of poll numbers about the same of those of a cow jumping over the moon. The national polls have been notoriously wrong about Trump since he first announced he was running for president. I haven’t seen any improvement since. Trump is on a winning streak; “No Show Joe” is kept in hiding he talks without engaging his brain. I expect President Trump to be reelected by a wide margin.
Crazy, unbelievable garbage from the Media and even some RHINOS! We are sick of all this conspiring, undermining and most of all the Fake Polls!! We believe that the DemocRATS will lie, cheat and steal to win an Election and they better not give Biden advance questions or an ear piece! That would be just like them as we saw in 2016! Now they will try to keep the COVID19 Pandemic going because they think it will hurt Trump while the MSM/CNN told us that the ‘Protesters’ didn’t cause the second Wave. Yeah right, this time it was among the 18 – 35 year olds, exactly the ones marching out there!!
Yes, since murdochs sons have taken over, fox has hired criminal donna brazille, and put RINO paul ryan on their board of directors. There are now only a handful of Conservatives still left, Tucker, Judge Jeanine,Hannity, Hilton, Watters, and Gutfield are still there for awhile I suppose!
I change the channel when any of the OTHERS come on!
As a voter registered with the CPUSA. I will say that the
Democrats have not onoy shot themselves in the foot, they’ve shot themselves in the head. Where the hell sid they dig upo Biden and what makes them think he’s electable? There were so may good people going for the primar, WHY did they choose Joe?
Right on Frank,
I’ve seen a noticeable change in Fox News sine Murdock turned it over.
Chris Wallace also showing his true stripes. He should try out for a spot on 60 minutes.
Mike
Don’t let the name ‘Wallace’ fool you, it’s really ‘Wallik’ ….descendent of Russian Jews….and we all know how LIBERAL most Jews are….over 80% are Democrats…When Anti-Fa and BLM turn their sights on their dracula landlords….our Jewish friends will be asking us to save them….again….
Figures don`t lie but liars do figure. The polls are meaningless lies and propaganda. Trunp 2020.
When US Atty. Durham’s report comes out…Trump’s numbers will climb…..when Biden comes out of his basement….and Americans see what a MORON he is….Trump’s numbers will SOAR…
Gasparino is a dyed in the wool Democrat. He has been totally wrong in every claim he has made in the last 4 years. Ignore him.
What a shame. Fox news was ONCE the news that was fair and balanced. Now just like the rest of the MSM. Bye bye Fox.
Well, ya couldn’t really blame the poor guy! He has done more for this country and personally sacrificed more than any other President since George Washington and has been treated like total schitt by the evil and wicked scumbag communist and their propaganda outlets! The only retribution that will be served on these demons is when Christ Jesus the Messiah returns and destroys all democrats and sentences them to an eternity of hell and damn nation!
Which I believe will happen within the next two years!
Fox News has been in decline since Paul Ryan was hired to their Board.
The President, his administration, and his followers believe these fake polls as much as they believe the fake MSM news!
I only watch few on fox, the rest can go suck it! They are so stupidly prejudiced and rude who wants to. Listen to this conjecture and lies .
