Fox News: "Trump's biggest moments may still be ahead of him"

Fox News' morning program "Fox & Friends" aired a special episode the day after the US midterm elections, in which the hosts Brian Kilmeade, Ainsley Earhardt, and Lawrence B. Jones addressed the Republican party's losses. The Democrats had secured a comfortable majority in the Senate and House of Representatives, and had won several states that had previously been Republican strongholds.

The hosts also tried to reassure conservative viewers, highlighting that some Republican candidates had won in certain states, such as Florida.
