"Over the course of seven months, we just kinda found these moments where I might be able to do some work, I could take the kids with me, do a road trip, and our motto is, to love America is to see America, said Duffy after the show's trailer played on-air."
"The screen then showed footage of Duffy and his family in the Oval Office with Trump, as he revealed that the White House was their first stop The kids were wildly excited and [Trump] was so generous with his time, he added."
"There are so many different ways to do a road trip, Duffy said after some more promotional clips played. It fits any budget to do a road trip. We live in a Porn Hub world, Campos-Duffy remarked. This is really wholesome, good family stuff. This is what families need to do."
"The announcement has not gone without criticism, with some, like MeidasTouch's Pablo Manriquez, linking Duffy's comments that road trips fit any budget to skyrocketing gas prices amid the U.S. war with Iran. Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg's husband, Chasten Glezman Buttigieg, was similarly upset, writing on X, The same Duffys who threw endless fits on national television when Pete was working from our son's ICU bedside are now bragging about their multi-month, taxpayer-funded family road trip while gas and grocery prices soar for American families because of Trump's war of choice."
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said he spent parts of seven months filming a reality TV show while serving in office under President Donald Trump. The show, titled The Great American Road Trip, is promoted as celebrating America’s 250th anniversary in July. It features Duffy, his wife Rachel Campos-Duffy, Fox co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy, and their nine children. Duffy described finding moments to work, take the kids, and travel, saying the family motto is to love America is to see America. Promotional footage shows the family in the Oval Office with Trump, described as generous with his time. Campos-Duffy said road trips fit any budget and called the concept wholesome family content. Critics linked the comments to rising gas prices and alleged taxpayer funding amid U.S. conflict.
