‘A real loser!’ Trump sets his sights on Fox News host and it’s NOT pretty

April 17, 2026 | | Print Article

President Donald Trump reinvigorated his belief that Fox News should take “The Five” co-host Jessica Tarlov off the air, calling the liberal “one of the Least Attractive and Talented People on all of Television.”

Tarlov was engaged in her ever-familiar role of criticizing Trump during Thursday’s edition of “The Five,” claiming that he currently has a 35 percent approval rating in most polls.

The president was apparently watching the episode, at least for a short spell, and set his sights on Tarlov, as well as a few controversial conservative media personalities.

“I’m on Air Force One heading to Las Vegas and Arizona for Greetings and Speeches on NO TAX ON TIPS, a WINDFALL for our Great American Citizens. I am watching one of the Least Attractive and Talented People on all of Television, Jessica Tarlov,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Her voice is so grating and terrible, I had to ‘turn her off!'”

“Her Democrat soundbites are FAKE. She makes up ‘Poll Numbers,’ and nobody challenges her, because she is so boring,” he continued. “I have among the best Poll Numbers I have ever had, and why shouldn’t I, ALL THE COUNTRY DOES IS WIN. CNN had me at 100%, saying they never saw that before. GET HER OFF THE AIR, SHE IS BAD FOR OUR COUNTRY! I hear Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens are dying fast. Their numbers are terrible. Nobody believes them anymore. They were FAKE MAGA, and now they’ve been exposed!”

“He’s not a politician,” co-host Greg Gutfeld pointed out in the segment, prompting Tarlov to fire back, “He is! Stop saying that he’s just the host of The Apprentice who came to save us.”

“You can’t understand Trump because his political decisions align with his personal and patriotic ones,” Gutfeld responded.

“Personal ones, like his own bank account,” Tarlov countered, regurgitating a familiar attack on the left that Trump and his family are enriching themselves while he is in office.

Earlier this month, Trump blasted Tarlov in another Truth Social critique that he said was “for Fox executives only.”

“Take Jessica Tarlov off the air. She is, from her voice, to her lies, and everything else about her, one of the worst ‘personalities’ on television, a real loser! People cannot stand watching her,” he posted.

There was plenty of agreement with Trump’s take on the Fox News host — here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on X:
