Donald Trump Jr. blasted Fox News for spending too much time focusing on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) over the past few years.

The son of Donald Trump appeared on Newsmax’s The Balance and was asked about his feelings toward JP Morgan Chase chairman Jamie Dimon endorsing Nikki Haley, who is currently running for president.

“The problem is they fear Donald Trump because they understand that Donald Trump will do what’s right for the American people, not what’s right for Wall Street billionaires and executives like Jamie Dimon,” Trump Jr. said. “They want someone who answers to them. They want someone that has no choice but to answer to them because their entire political existence is due to them and their money. So they’re desperate to stop that. That’s the uni-party all over again. They don’t care if it’s this or that, they want the power and the control.”

Don Jr. then turned his fire on Fox News.

“They see that over at Fox News,” he added. “They gave Ron DeSantis the perpetual lap dance for two years, they realize he is not the guy, so now they’re going to Nikki Haley because they want someone that when they call, whether it’s good for the American people or not, if it serves their agenda, they ask, ‘How high would you like me to jump, Fox News, Rupert Murdoch, Paul Ryan, the board?’ Whatever it may be. It’s not about the American people, and the faster the American people understand that the quote, unquote ‘conservatives,’ even the conservatives out there from the billionaire class, don’t actually have anything to do with their best interests, the faster and better we’ll be off going forward as an America First movement.”

Eric Bolling, the host of The Balance, asked Don Jr. why he thinks Fox News turned on his dad.

“[Former Fox News chief] Roger Ailes isn’t there anymore, unfortunately. You know, the globalists are in charge, and you know, they’re conservative-light maybe, or they do what they have to because they understand they’d be bankrupt otherwise, but you know, I don’t believe they have anything to do with the America First movement. They don’t represent that,” Don Jr. stated in response. “I’m sure they’ll come around and be supportive of the conservative nominee because otherwise, they’d lose all of their ratings totally, but you can see very clearly they don’t actually believe those things.”

The comments from Dimon came after the Koch Network endorsed the former United Nations ambassador last week.
