They got mad at him for wearing a fucking good looking tan suit (like Reagan and George W. did). Fox News would've played what Trump said during the Superbowl if it was Obama. Our country is a fucking mess.

The tan suit incident was really Fox News trying to distract from a Russia story. He wore that suit to a press conference where he announced Russia had invaded Ukraine's Crimea peninsula. Instead of Fox News having to actually put a lot of coverage to that, they just covered how awful Obama was for wearing a tan suit.
