Once a die-hard Trump supporter, always a die-hard Trumper was proven true when the former president attended a town hall on Thursday night with Fox News.
Fox News host Sean Hannity was booed by the crowd when he asked Trump about the idea that he should maybe "tone it down" when appealing to moderate voters.
Before Hannity could even finish his question, the boos erupted from the crowd. Then, shortly after, they began cheering for the former president, chanting, "We love Trump!"
In response, Hannity told the crowd to "leave me alone" as the crowd's disapproval of his question grew louder.
The host then claimed his question was advice to Trump on who can help him win swing voters needed for the 2024 candidate to get over the finish line.
However, Trump dismissed the idea, saying that from the day he walked into Washington, he was under attack, and if the former president weren't strong and didn't hit back, he would be nothing.
"From the day I got in, I was under siege by people that had been in Washington for many years, put in there by many different presidents, in most cases people that were against me," Trump began. "They spied on my campaign. They did all sorts of things. So I was under investigation and under siege, and so were my people, and if I weren't tough, I wouldn't be here right now. I guarantee you that. If I didn't fight back, I wouldn't be here."
Trump's appearance on the Right-leaning network comes after Fox News mogul Rupert Murdoch reportedly hosted GOP presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) at his California ranch, promising to support Trump's top 2024 rival fully.

Sorry, he aint ever going to attack McConnell, Lindsey, Pence, or Romney...
More’s the pity.
Hannity is like watching a political Disney channel.
F sean handity. I have never liked that guy. He was a cnn plant.
Well I think “THAT’S A BINGO”!
Hannity has been nothing but a sh!tstain on conservatism since the first time he opened his pie-hole, he wanted so bad to be the new RUSH.
He was more like a third grader trying to play in the NFL!
I’m not keen on Trumps talk about federalizing abortion with some kind of deal.
Because his wife never got a word in edgewise when dealing with Sean? Like with his guests on his show?
The Tucker effect is contaminating the other FOX shows, even when Trump shows up.
I think Hannity bought a 6Million dollar condo in Palm Beach during Covid.
I like that analogy.
:)
Herding sheepdogs use their eyes to direct the sheep. I watched one working in NZ when i was there. Amazing.
On the rare occasions I have to drive to Redding in the mornings I love to listen to the WILKOW MAJORITY, Wilkow knocks it out of the park.
At noon comes that prick hannity, I change the the channel to 75 on Sirius XM, big band music from the 40’s, great music!
Purposely misleading edit by the DeSantis supporting Town Hall.
This wasn’t Hannity’s advice.
Hannity was asking what do you tell OTHERS WHO SAY and the argument THEY make to stop a little of the namecalling, not the argument Hannity makes.
Then he said, “I said it’s *THEIR* question, leave me alone.”
Why only state half of the quote and mislead? Town Hall conveniently leaves that out to make a strong Trump supporter and friend of Trump for 30 years look bad.
The Tucker effect is contaminating the other FOX shows, even when Trump shows up.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
I think you’re right
Hannity is strong evidence that the Peter Principle doesn’t always hold.
The Peter Principle: A person rises to his level of incompetence.
The Hannity Principle: A person rises to his level of incompetence, then shoots right past it.
It amazes me that anyone watches Hannity. My best guess is they do it as part of a drinking game. Take a shot each time Hannity interrupts a guest!
Nonsense. Trump has criticized all of those people.
That's the usual way "journalists" will phrase gotcha questions... "some say...blah blah blah". "How do you respond to those who say...blah blah blah". They don't have the balls to ask the question straight up.
Yes...cheating and maybe she just couldn’t stand him anymore?
“and has never gotten around to leave greater NYC”.
Exactly. I used to listen to him after Rush. New York did something stupid and I remember him saying over and over again that he was going to move out of the state. He talked about it and talked about it and talked about it - and never did it. That’s when I knew he was just a bunch of hot air and I haven’t listened to him since.
Sean’s brain was buried with Rush Limbaugh...
Famous line: “Doing show prep for all of the others...” I thought then and now he was referring primarily to Hannity...
