But, in an unexpected twist, host Steve Doocy pushed back against Trump's announcement after the President hung up.
Doocy said Fox News had not approved the plan and Democratic candidate Joe Biden was welcome to appear on the program any time.

It seems even Fox News has their limit when it comes to conversations with Donald Trump.

Of course President Trump wants to make a weekly appearance on Fox & Friends—he enjoys being on TV more than doing hard work!
Unfortunately for him, that's no guarantee Fox wants him on the air.
