Trump's Pre-Super Bowl Interview with Bret Baier Highlights Policy and Second-Term Agenda
Former President Donald Trump sat down with Fox News anchor Bret Baier for a pre-Super Bowl interview, reviving a tradition that had been dormant during President Joe Biden’s tenure. The interview, taped at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, aired on Sunday, February 9, 2025, during Fox’s pregame show ahead of Super Bowl 59. Baier, known for his experience interviewing Trump, aimed to balance tough questions with a conversational tone, focusing on policy, Trump’s second-term agenda, and his first 100 days in office. The interview also touched on broader topics, including the role of Elon Musk and the fast-paced news cycle of the Trump administration.
Baier emphasized his strategy of asking concise, direct questions to keep Trump on topic, acknowledging the former president’s tendency to go off on tangents. The interview marked Baier’s first one-on-one with Trump since June 2023 and was part of a broader effort to address significant issues while maintaining a fair but critical approach. The segment aired during a high-profile time slot, drawing attention from millions of viewers tuning in for the Super Bowl. While the tradition of presidential pregame interviews has waned in recent years, Trump’s appearance underscored his continued influence and media presence.
