Fox News host dined with Trump this week

President Trump dined with Fox News’s Jesse Watters on Monday night.

The dinner is further evidence of the president’s close ties to the cable news network. Trump has often provided one-on-one interviews to Fox News hosts, including Watters, during his presidency.

He also reportedly regularly watches the network’s programming and often calls the hosts afterward to discuss segments he did or did not like. And Watters and fellow Fox News host Tucker Carlson are among the few Twitter users that Trump follows. 

On Thursday night, Watters tweeted a picture of a menu signed by Trump.

Former deputy assistant to the president Sebastian Gorka also reportedly joined the men for the dinner, according to the Daily Beast. Trump reportedly told Gorka that he misses him.

Gorka, who is currently a contributor to Fox News and The Hill, left his White House post last year in August shortly after his boss, Stephen Bannon, left.
