Lou Dobbs was a big supporter of former President Donald Trump. Being a conservative political pundit, Dobbs interviewed the politician several times and was always on his side. When the Supreme Court made the controversial decision to essentially give Trump immunity from prosecution, in July 2024, Dobbs was all for it. In an Lindell-TV interview with Trump, Dobbs praised the bravery Trump has given to many amid the Supreme Court decision. He shared, “It’s just a moment in history that, as you say, the courage of the court, the courage of so many in Washington, D.C. emanated from one man, and there seems to be fairly universal conviction on this part as well, that you were the one who introduced the idea of courage to the Republican Party and that it is now truly your party to lead.”
Even in the days leading up to his passing, Dobbs was still active and showing his support to Trump on X, formerly known as Twitter. Less than a day before his death, the conservative commentator retweeted a photo of Trump after the attempted assassination made against him. The photo was captioned, “The fake news Democrat propaganda media wants to bury this photo. Therefore, I’ll be posting it every day on X.” It’s no wonder Trump was the first to break the news of Dobbs death because it’s clear that the two respected one another.
