Donald Trump went on a multi-post tirade on Truth Social just before midnight on Sunday where he menaced both ABC and NBC with having their broadcasting licenses pulled.
Continuing an attack from earlier in the day where the president went on a tirade aimed at ABC commentator and former rival Chris Christie, Trump doubled down in two frantic posts on Truth Social.
In his first post, he wrote, “Despite a very high popularity and, according to many, among the greatest 8 months in Presidential History, ABC & NBC FAKE NEWS, two of the worst and most biased networks in history, give me 97% BAD STORIES. IF THAT IS THE CASE, THEY ARE SIMPLY AN ARM OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY AND SHOULD, ACCORDING TO MANY, HAVE THEIR LICENSES REVOKED BY THE FCC. I would be totally in favor of that because they are so biased and untruthful, an actual threat to our Democracy!!! MAGA.”
After making that accusation, he escalated his attack with a threat of possible action targeting the networks.
“Why is it that ABC and NBC FAKE NEWS, two of the absolute worst and most biased networks anywhere in the World, aren’t paying Millions of Dollars a year in LICENSE FEES,” he suggested. “They should lose their Licenses for their unfair coverage of Republicans and/or Conservatives, but at a minimum, they should pay up BIG for having the privilege of using the most valuable airwaves anywhere at anytime!!! Crooked ‘journalism’ should not be rewarded, it should be terminated!!!”
