Heartfelt Condolences to Donald Trump and His Family During This Time of Loss
Our deepest sympathies go out to Donald Trump and his family as they mourn the passing of longtime political commentator Lou Dobbs, who died at the age of 78.
Known for his decades in broadcasting and his strong political views, Dobbs left a lasting imprint on American media.
Lou Dobbs began his career in radio at KBLU in Arizona before transitioning to television in the mid-1970s with NBC’s KING-TV in Seattle.
He became one of the founding reporters at CNN, where he launched and hosted Moneyline—a flagship business news program that debuted in 1980.
Dobbs was widely recognized for his outspoken opinions, especially on topics like immigration, which led to his departure from CNN in 2009.
He later joined Fox Business, where he hosted Lou Dobbs Tonight from 2010 until its cancellation in 2021.
Throughout his career, he remained a polarizing yet influential voice in political journalism.
Former President Donald Trump paid tribute to Dobbs in a heartfelt message on Truth Social, calling him “an incredible talent,” “a friend,” and “a truly amazing reporter, journalist, and artist.”
Trump added, “Lou was unique, and he loved our nation.”
Lou Dobbs may have stirred debate, but his contributions to political discourse and business journalism were significant.
He will be remembered for his bold style and his unwavering convictions.
