President Trump on Tuesday retweeted his son, Eric Trump, who congratulated Fox News for having 15 of the top 20 ranked weekday cable news programs, including Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson’s shows.
The younger Trump son said CNN had become irrelevant, as the network only has one show in the top 25.
“Congratulations @FoxNews: Fox has 15 of the top 20 shows with @SeanHannity and @TuckerCarlson leading the pack at 1st and 2nd respectively. CNN has become totally irrelevant, down 19% from last year with only 1 show in the Top 25 (#24th),” Eric Trump tweeted Monday.

“Hannity,” “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” “The Ingraham Angle,” “Special Report” with Bret Baier, and “The Five” were some of the many Fox News programs ranked in the top 25.
“The Rachel Maddow Show” on MSNBC came in third place, and “Anderson Cooper 360” was the only CNN show in the top 25.
In a separate tweet, Trump again criticized Democrats for failing to compromise with Republicans on a deal to replace the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
Monday marked the deadline Trump set for Congress to come up with a solution for the so-called Dreamers, which Democrats said needed to be addressed in any federal funding and budget negotiations.
However, no action was taken in light of the deadline by Democratic lawmakers regarding DACA.
“Total inaction on DACA by Dems. Where are you? A deal can be made!” Trump tweeted.
