In case you were wondering, Donald Trump is still mad at Chris Wallace.
Wednesday night, the disgraced former president called into Sean Hannity’s Fox News segment (because apparently Hannity and Tucker Carlson are the only people left at the Right-wing network that Donnie still likes) and didn’t waste any time in railing on Hannity’s colleague and fellow Fox host Chris Wallace.
The pair of Conservative nutcases got started with a conversation about Hunter Biden’s involvement in Ukraine’s gas and oil industry as they went on to agree that they find it odd how the president’s son “got millions of dollars” for his work; because I guess it’s only okay when their last name is Trump.
It was then that the ex-president brought up the September 2020 presidential debate that Hannity’s fellow host Chris Wallace served as a moderator for. The same debate in which Trump continually interrupted then-Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden with ridiculous questions about his son’s involvement in Ukraine.

Trump claimed in the call with Hannity, as he has many times before, that Wallace was trying to “protect” Biden and his family, despite the entire section of the debate surrounding the rise of China.
“Chris Wallace protected him because he couldn’t answer the question. So Chris Wallace protected him, good old Chris Wallace. He’ll never be Mike,” Trump said in a reference to Chris’ father Mike Wallace who served as one of the original correspondents of CBS’ 60 Minutes and passed away in 2012.
Trump goes on to declare, “We no longer have a fair and free press,” during his interview with Hannity.
Of course, this is far from the first time the disgraced now-ex-president has launched a nasty attack against the media. Trump spent his entire presidency doing just that.
During a speaking event at a Washington DC news media museum in 2019, Wallace said, “Now let’s talk about the president. He has done everything he can to undercut the media, to try to delegitimize us. And I think his purpose is clear: To raise doubts when we report critically about him and his administration that we can be trusted.”
