'Train wreck': Internet slams Laura Ingraham as Fox News host announces Town Hall with Donald Trump ahead of South Carolina primary

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Fox News has slated another town hall featuring former President Donald Trump, this time a pre-recorded event on February 20 in South Carolina.

Hosted by Laura Ingraham, the event will occur at 7 pm ET at the Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium, ahead of the South Carolina primary on February 24, 2024.

Laura Ingraham predicts the end of Nikki Haley's campaign

During 'The Ingraham Angle', the night before the New Hampshire primary, Ingraham stated that Nikki Haley, Trump's remaining rival in the GOP primary race, "is finished." She stressed that continuing her campaign would harm Haley's political future.

Ingraham also remarked that this would likely have minimal effect on Trump's standing in the race. She humorously added, "Perhaps she'll have a political future if you believe Liz Cheney does".

Fox News organized a live town hall featuring Trump on January 10, shortly before the Iowa caucuses, with anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum serving as moderators. Before this, the network also hosted a town hall with Haley on January 8.

Haley has voiced criticism toward Trump for his decision not to partake in a GOP debate. Throughout this election cycle, the former president opted out of participating in any GOP gatherings.

Social media slams Laura Ingraham for announcing Town Hall with Donald Trump

Following Ingraham's announcement about her forthcoming interview, people took to various social media platforms like X, formerly known as Twitter, to voice their opinions and showcasing a negative response to the upcoming town hall event featuring former president Donald Trump.

One wrote, "Something about how the text lined up, and I saw "Laura Ingraham infested", and my eyeballs were correct."

Another chimed in, "That means a straight hour of him being allowed to lie while Laura pretends to be a journalist."

"2 of Ingraham's 3 kids were born in Russia and illegally adopted, which tells you everything you need to know about her. She's as owned by Russia as Trump is," said another.

One asked, "Dressed in orange?", referring to the metaphor that Donald Trump looks like an orange. 

One person wrote, "This is going to be a train wreck."

"Garbage. Why does he never sit down with a real journalist", said another. 

One more social media user slammed the event and said, "I’m sure it will be hard hitting, truth to power journalism."

"And every person screened & every question approved by him," another social media user claimed.
