The New York Post, owned by globalist billionaire Rupert Murdoch, is risibly claiming that former President Donald Trump is “getting smoked” in the 2024 Republican presidential primary – despite Trump leading by double-digit margins in the polls. Columnist Karol Markowicz acknowledges Trump leads in the Republican field, but argues: “[t]he comparison shouldn’t be to candidates in past elections but to incumbents,” adding that if Biden polled similarly, “…he’d be shoved off the stage.”
That’s not how primary polling or elections work, however. Markowicz is a supporter of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, though fails to declare her allegiance in the article published in the paper that carries a Ukraine flag on its front page.
Media properties owned by Murdoch have stepped up attacks on former President Trump since the 2022 mid-term elections. Just two days after the election the New York Post‘s cover page read “Trumpty Dumpty”, blaming Trump for Republicans underperforming expectations. The Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal called Trump “the Republican Party’s Biggest Loser.”
Murdoch himself has made clear his disdain for Donald Trump, calling the former President’s claims that 2020 presidential election was stolen “a huge disservice to the country” and “Pretty much a crime.” The billionaire media mogul insisted to executives at the Fox News, another media property he owns, that Trump was becoming “increasingly mad” while predicting: “In another month Trump will be becoming irrelevant and we’ll have lots to say about Biden, Dems, and appointments.”
In response to Murdoch attempts to derail his 2024 presidential run, Trump hasn’t minced words. In a video posted on Truth Social, Trump said: “Fox News and the Wall Street Journal fight me because Murdoch is a globalist… And I am America First. It’s very simple, and it will always be that way, so get used to it.”
fox News was smoked!

Rupert is getting desperate.
NYPost hates Trump like a middle school cheerleader hates the big blonde girl who stole her boyfriend
Trump is up by 40 points if that is getting smoked than that is one hell of a smoke job
A whole lot of gaslighting coming out of the NY Post.
