Trump doesn’t like a “big orange” photo of him, which Fox News continues to use

Trump says Fox News should use more flattering photos of former President Donald Trump.

The one-term president and candidate for the year 2024 complained about the conservative network on social media as early as Thursday morning. Write that those who run the morning news show Fox & Friends are “deliberately showing the absolute worst pictures” of him.

“And then they want me to debate!” he added. (Trump has not committed to attending the first Republican presidential debate of 2024, which Fox News will host next week.)

“The coloring, the distortions, everything is just so bad,” Trump wrote on social media. “You have to sit and look at 100 different shots and then do the absolute 10 worst. My employees even complained about it for months, but to no avail.”

But without a concrete example of what Trump considers a “bad” photo, it’s hard to tell what Trump thinks is acceptable and what isn’t.

For example, we cannot be sure if he would object to:
