Stephen Miller tells Fox News anchor on air: Fire your pollster

Top White House aide Stephen Miller told Fox News anchor John Roberts that the network should fire its polling team during a live interview on Tuesday.

After Roberts laid out a Fox News poll for Miller showing President Trump getting higher marks on issues like immigration and the border than on the economy and tariffs, he asked Miller point blank: "A lot of people think he's spending too much time on tariffs and not enough time on the economy and lowering prices. What do you say?"

"I don't want to make things weird for you, John," Miller responded. "But it is our opinion that Fox News needs to fire its pollster. And I won't surprise you with that ... but the Fox News pollster has always been wrong about President Trump."

Miller added that the White House "does not acknowledge any of that polling" from Fox.

Miller's shot at Fox came a day after Trump posted on his Truth Social platform about his displeasure with a number of media outlets and pollsters who he suggested be investigated for results showing his approval ratings sagging and giving him low marks on economic issues.

Trump and his top aides have regularly ridiculed Fox over its coverage of him, though the president and his aides have sat for numerous interviews with the network's top hosts and journalists in recent months.

Miller is known for his fiery debates with anchors on cable news, getting into a spat with CNN anchor Brianna Keilar earlier this year about the Department of Government Efficiency's (DOGE) efforts to trim the size of the federal government.
