On the first couple’s recent trip overseas, President Donald Trump reportedly fumed and caused “a bit of a stir” after staff members failed to change Melania Trump’s television channel to Fox News aboard Air Force One, according to an email obtained by The New York Times.
According to the Times report, Trump officials confirmed that TV’s will be tuned to Fox going forward
The New York Times adds:
The email, an internal exchange between officials in the White House Military Office and the White House Communications Agency last Thursday, also called for the ordering of two additional televisions to support Beam, a TiVo-like streaming device, to make sure the president and first lady could both watch TV in their separate hotel rooms when they travel.
Melania Trump’s spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham said in a statement on Wednesday that the first lady watches “any channel she wants,” in an apparent rebuke of the Times report that Trump was upset to find her Air Force One television tuned into CNN.
