Trump blamed Fox News for Republican losses even as network’s hosts went easy on him

Donald Trump has explicitly blamed Fox News for the Republican Party's disappointing midterm election results. Despite reports that network pundits avoided criticizing the US president during their coverage, Trump repeatedly attacked the cable channel on social media. On election night, he asserted that Fox News bears responsibility for the losses, specifically questioning the network's decision to feature guests like Bill de Blasio, whom he described as the worst mayor in the history of New York City.
