While Fox staffers helped with his monologue, he disliked most of their suggestions, the former president said.
Donald Trump says Fox News staffers helped him write some of the jokes he delivered at the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner on Thursday evening.
Speaking on Fox & Friends the morning after the event in New York City, the former president discussed his monologue at the annual charitable dinner as part of a broader conversation about the event.
«Your material is really funny. Who wrote it?» asked host Steve Doocy after mentioning that some Democrats hire Saturday Night Live members to write their humorous speeches.
«Well, I’ve had a lot of people helping, a lot of people», Trump replied. «A couple of people from Fox, actually. I shouldn’t say that, but they wrote some jokes, and for the most part, I didn’t like any of them, right?» he said with a laugh.
After Trump’s remarks on the show, Fox denied any involvement.
