Ex Trump Adviser: Fox Feud Is Counterproductive

Peter Stone

Roger Stone, who parted ways with Donald Trump's presidential campaign late last week, has suggested that the businessman's feud with Fox News is counterproductive.

"I think the voters would rather go to war with Iran and China over trade, rather than go to war with Fox News," Stone said in an interview with The Daily Beast published Monday.

Stone noted that Fox reaches the vast majority of Republican primary voters Trump would need, compared to other networks such as CNN.

The Hill reports Rush Limbaugh, who has similarly been supportive of Trump's controversial White House bid, rebuked the Republican presidential front-runner Monday for getting off message.

"Get back to the issues. Get back to immigration. Tell us what you think about whatever the issues are. That's what put you on the map," Limbaugh said on his radio program.
