Wednesday, Maria Bartiromo of Fox News stated in a podcast that she felt compelled to speak out after recognizing that a “small cabal” in the media was unjustly covering former President Donald Trump.
According to Bartiromo, the reporting on Trump and his administration has been “incredibly unfair” due to the fact that Trump has been “polarizing to so many people” over the past decade, as she stated during her appearance on “The Sage Steele Show.”
“I mean, in the last ten years, I guess part of the issue, I guess you know, Donald Trump came on the scene and was polarizing to so many people that they went crazy. I think that there’s a small cabal who hate him so much and have convinced their constituents — media, academia, whoever else you talk [about], Hollywood,” Bartiromo remarked.
“I saw that as being incredible unfairness, and I called it out, and I mean, that was one thing that I think the mainstream media that happened. Donald Trump happened to them, and they just — they don’t want to report on him fairly,” she continued.
Steele then expressed that the public was unable to tolerate Trump’s political involvement, to which Bartiromo responded that it was a result of his exposure of “their corruption.”
“They refuse. They refuse, and they get away with it. I think that’s the worst part is when the bosses, the leadership, allows it and it’s intentional. It’s so funny, I think it’s — I used to laugh at the TDS — the Trump derangement syndrome — that people talked about. I’m like, ‘Oh, this is real.’ People cannot can’t handle it.” Steele said.
“And I wonder why? I think it’s because he exposes their corruption, some people’s corruption, and doesn’t care about talking about it. And they see him as dangerous in that regard,” Bartiromo said in rsponse.
