While the news is unlikely to move conservative network audiences, Doocy’s colleague Brian Kilmeade seemed very concerned about the reaction of one viewer in particular: Trump himself.
“If the former president is looking, you should know that these are just the numbers you’re relaying,” Kilmeade said, pointing out that Doocy “didn’t find those numbers.”
Doocy then remarked that he thought the poll was “fascinating”, prompting Kilmeade to say that CNN is “as often as Halley’s Comet passes.
Doocy’s response: “So you’re saying everything we’ve talked about for the last four minutes isn’t accurate?”
Kilmeade reminded Doocy that the beleaguered ex-president might not be happy with the latest poll news either.
“I’m just saying Donald Trump is watching,” Kilmeade continued. “If Donald Trump is looking, just let him know we didn’t find that number. That’s what the poll says.”
