Fox & Friends quickly came to President Trump's defense after a report that he racked up more than $1 billion in business losses, arguing that if anything, he comes out of the story looking great.

"He's a bold businessman, which is chronicled here," Brian Kilmeade said in response to the story.

He added, "And guess what? Not all of us win on everything we buy."
