Donald Trump is returning to Sean Hannity’s Fox News show for the first time since his inauguration, Fox News has anounced. The President will appear on a special edition of ‘Hannity,’ filmed at the Metropolitan Theatre in Morgantown, West Virginia, for what is being billed as an exclusive interview about the economy, tax policy, and current events. The interview, to be recorded prior to broadcast, will air Wednesday, Oct. 4 at 9 p.m. Eastern.
Along with the interview, Trump and Hannity will also field questions from a live audience composed of Democrats, Republicans, and Independents.
The interview comes shortly after a tumultuous couple of weeks that included Trump’s comments about NFL players who protest during the national anthem, the resignation of HHS Secretary Tom Price over his use of private jets for official business, and criticism of the Trump administration’s handling of the unfolding crisis in Puerto Rico. Hannity, an early and enthusiastic supporter of the Trump campaign, has continued his support throughout Trump’s presidency.
This will be Trump’s first appearance on the Fox News show since just after his inauguration in January. He was also a guest of the show during the Republican primaries.
