Summary
Donald Trump criticized Seth Meyers’ NBC late-night show in a Truth Social post, calling it a “political hit” against Republicans and demanding Comcast face consequences for hosting such programming.
Trump accused the network of bias, labeling Meyers untalented and NBC/MSNBC as aligned with the “Radical Left.”
This continues Trump’s long-standing feud with Comcast and major media outlets.
His remarks also recall previous threats to challenge media licenses and FCC actions under his administration, highlighting broader tensions between Trump and media conglomerates.
I guess a terrorist will be occupying the White House.
When these douchebags talk about “free speech”, remember that they never fucking mean it. They only mean THEIR free speech, and no one should counter them.
So you can’t say anything negative or slightly negative about Republicans? Fucken dick 'tater.
4 years of this shit. I hope a fucking meteor wipes us out…
Ideally just the inauguration.
Indeed. Not all humans ™. Just the likes of people that joined up with the qons.
Not all of us…just most of America. And most of what’s in Westminster.
The only silver lining I can see about this situation, is that he won’t try again in an other 4 years time.
At least, I hope.
This is likely the most oblique he will ever be about the consequence a free press should fear.
By next week it will be much more explicit.
Scary thing is that there is a very real chance Comcast will bend the knee, cough up some dough, and make Seth Meyers apologize.
Comcast is literally in the process of spinning NBC off into it’s own company, so this won’t last long. In fact, expect them to quicken the pace of kicking NBC to the curb.
Also, fuck Comcast, they’re one of the few that I could really give a shit about Trump fucking over.
Finally, are we really lamenting the potential loss of the traditional media like NBC who prioritized Trump coverage because it brought in ratings? Maybe we should let them fucking die already if that’s how they’re trying to stay afloat.
Yeah I agree, living in Philly you see the Comcast building that looks like it’s a middle finger to America, so let’em fight.
Snowflake
I thought Comcast [/Universal/NB frickinC] gave Don a million for the inaugural, no?
Somebody doesn’t like me, waaaah! Mommy! Uh… Musky?
Fascism rejects the view that violence is inherently negative or pointless but rather views imperialism, political violence, and war as means to national rejuvenation.[11][12] Fascists often advocate for the establishment of a totalitarian one-party state,[13][14] and for a dirigiste economy (a market economy in which the state plays a strong directive role through economic interventionist policies), with the principal goal of achieving autarky (national economic self-sufficiency).[15][16] Fascism’s extreme authoritarianism and nationalism centres around the own group, but that can manifest as a belief in Manifest Destiny, revival of historical greatness (like Mussolini seeking to restore the Roman Empire) or in case of Nazism, racial purity or a master race which blended with some variant of racism or discrimination against a demonized “Other”, such as Jews, homosexuals, transgender people, ethnic minorities, or immigrants. These ideas have motivated fascist regimes to commit massacres, forced sterilizations, deportations, and genocides.[17][18] During World War II, the genocidal and imperialist ambitions of the fascist Axis powers resulted in the murder of millions of people.
Where my Jackals at?
Meyer’s stuff hits home, I’m sure Donny’s too fragile to take those truth bombs.
Maybe if trump is an even bigger bitch, then he will be a big strong boy who has friends and doesn’t pee in the bed.
