Vox senior political reporter Jane Coaston said that Republicans are likely 'concerned' about President Trump's influence on the GOP when he leaves the White House.

Speaking on Hill.TV's 'Rising,' Coaston said that the president's efforts to draw attention to himself have resulted in a 'massive fundraising boost' for the GOP.

However, she said that figuring out what the party's staunch support for Trump will mean when he's no longer the president is a challenge.

Coaston noted that even though a lot of potential 2024 GOP frontrunners are sticking close to him right now, his messaging may not be as effective in the future.

These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward liberal causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage liberal causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Left Bias sources.

  • Overall, we rate Vox Left Biased due to wording and story selection that routinely favors the left. We also rate them Mostly Factual in reporting, rather than High, due to two failed fact checks, with only one offering a correction.

In review, Vox looks at the issues from a progressive liberal perspective, and there is also an anti-Trump tone in their reporting. Therefore, the majority of stories are pro-left and anti-right. Further, Vox publishes stories with emotionally loaded headlines such as “Are Democrats brave enough to run a woman against Donald Trump?” and “The most depressing energy chart of the year- Coal has got to go” When it comes to sourcing, Vox typically utilizes credible sources such as the NY Times,Associated Press, and Bloomberg.
