Trump watched Fox News looking for corrupt people he could use.

[fightforfreedom]

Corrupt people appeared on Fox News as a way to interview, get hired by Trump. Trump used these people, put them in places of power so they could do his bidding while they profiting off of Trump in some way.

Once they did something corrupt for Trump, he knew he owned them. If they turned on Trump he would turn on them. If they protected Trump he would protect them.

Trump used them and they used Trump. That's how it worked.

1. Probably true but is there any support for this claim?

Or is it just a supposition?

Trump always seemed to be able to find lackeys to do his bidding. He usually preferred the younger pretty ones like Hope Hicks. I am just not sure he had to cull them from Fox Noise.

3. Yep.

Trump is hiring people who’ve been auditioning on television — whether they know it or not.
