Murdoch media launches attack on ‘Trumpty Dumpty’

Murdoch media has released an array of scathing headlines about former President Donald Trump

The Murdoch media empire has not held back when it comes to Donald Trump. They have slammed his Republican Party’s efforts at the 2022 midterm elections.

Even Donald Trump admits the midterm results were “somewhat disappointing”

Donald Trump had personally selected and thrown his support behind a number of key Republican hopefuls. Although, many were unsuccessful in their election bids.

Across the U.S., media outlets owned by Rupert Murdoch are showing little mercy for the former president.

The Wall Street Journal and the New York Post are united in their stance. They’re both calling for the Republicans to move beyond Donald Trump.

The Journal’s headline reads “Trump is the Republican Party’s Biggest Loser”, adding he’s now flopped in 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2022.

In a similar fashion, a New York Post columnist wrote:

“After three straight national tallies in which either he or his party or both were hammered by the national electorate.

It’s time for even his fans to accept the truth: Toxic Trump is the political equivalent of a can of Raid.”

Trump fires back

Many were expecting to see a red wave in the 2022 U.S. midterms, but it hasn’t exactly gone that way.

Trump has taken to his social media platform ‘Truth Social’ to slam the criticism he is receiving.

The former President blamed the media for being the “enemy of the people.” This is despite much of the criticism coming from within the Republican Party.
