Trump Insults Fox News Host Jacqui Heinrich, Defends Criticism

Donald Trump criticized Fox News anchor Jacqui Heinrich, suggesting she should work for CNN after she questioned the appropriateness of his Tesla showcase at the White House. During an interview, Heinrich expressed concerns about the sensitivity of using the White House as a backdrop for such an event while Americans were struggling financially due to Trump's tariff policies. Following her questioning, Trump took to Truth Social to label her as 'terrible' and to mock her ties to the White House Correspondents Association, of which she is a board member. Brit Hume, a longtime Fox News figure, defended Heinrich, stating she provides balanced coverage and has treated Trump fairly. Trump's remarks came after Heinrich's critical inquiries during her recent hosting stint on Fox News Sunday and a subsequent press briefing. This incident highlights the ongoing tensions between Trump and media personalities, even from his own network.
