    In the past two years, Trump has called for every major American TV news network to be punished, according to a CNN review of his speeches and social media posts.

    He has imprecisely but repeatedly invoked the government’s licensing of broadcast TV airwaves and has said on at least 15 occasions that certain licenses should be revoked

      Oof, what a painful article to read. People with TDS have such trouble interpreting things Trump says! it’s wild.

      I’m not gonna go back and forth with you on this since it’ll probably turn into gibberish, but Trump’s rhetoric calls regarding these programs was never a call for a political policy, but a hyperbolic expression of outrage at how they have treated him.
