'They are a true threat': Trump threatens to go after NBC News if re-elected

Donald Trump said on Sunday that he intends to thoroughly scrutinize and limit NBC News and other news agencies if he's re-elected president in 2024.

Trump, who recently had an interview on NBC in which some people said he made accidental confessions about his federal cases, lashed out about NBC news and its affiliates

"They are almost all dishonest and corrupt, but Comcast, with its one-side and vicious coverage by NBC NEWS, and in particular MSNBC, often and correctly referred to as MSDNC (Democrat National Committee!), should be investigated for its 'Country Threatening Treason,'" Trump wrote on Sunday.

The former president added that their "endless coverage of the now fully debunked SCAM known as Russia, Russia, Russia, and much else, is one big Campaign Contribution to the Radical Left Democrat Party."

He promised to seek retribution once in office again.

"I say up front, openly, and proudly, that when I WIN the Presidency of the United States, they and others of the LameStream Media will be thoroughly scrutinized for their knowingly dishonest and corrupt coverage of people, things, and events," he said, arguably challenging the very notion of an American free press. "Why should NBC, or any other of the corrupt & dishonest media companies, be entitled to use the very valuable Airwaves of the USA, FREE? They are a true threat to Democracy and are, in fact, THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE! The Fake News Media should pay a big price for what they have done to our once great Country!"
