Former President Trump had dinner Tuesday with top executives at Fox News who asked him to consider attending the first Republican primary debate later this month, according to a new report. The dinner, which The New York Times reported took place at Trump’s Bedminster, N.J., Golf Club, was with Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott and network President Jay Wallace. Prime-time anchor Sean Hannity was also reportedly supposed to attend the dinner but was busy hosting his 9 p.m. show. The former president has attacked Fox using his Truth Social website in recent months. Trump has specifically taken issue with the idea of answering questions in a debate setting from Bret Baier, Fox’s top political anchor, who will moderate the first debate with Martha MacCallum.
