    1. >President Donald Trump’s hyped-up plans to address the nation Thursday night might have hit a major roadblock as it remains unclear whether any major television network will actually air him, the Daily Beast is reporting.

      >Major broadcast networks—ABC, CBS, and NBC—along with cable outlets including Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC have remained silent on whether they intend to preempt regular programming to carry the speech, the Daily Beast reported Thursday morning.

      >As of Tuesday evening, the Thursday 9 p.m. time slot across networks continued to display “their standard scheduled content,” with no indication that coverage would be interrupted for the presidential address.

    2. When the election was stolen from Gore, I did not spread shit on any walls, literally nor figuratively

      You can’t convince me that Fox and CBS are even considering not airing it.

      I love these thumbnail caps of him speaking, these days he looks like a really fat, irritated rodent when he talks

      Is preempting regular programming for a Presidential address even really a thing anymore? I can’t imagine it’s as effective as it used to be. I haven’t had regular TV in over a decade. Nothing preempts streaming.

      Don’t give this mad near-king anymore screen time than he already steals.

    7. The ballroom is gonna be awesome blah blah blah I ended 500% 550% 700% 1000% of all of the wars blah blah the 2020 election was stolen blah blah

    8. I hope common sense prevails and the networks pass on Trump’s insane rant tonight.

    9. …and his supporters will scream censorship if they do. This is just more rage bait to drum up views.

    10. I would rather watch the paint dry on my walls for a full year than listen to this man-baby orange rapist.

      One day the dystopian nightmare will over. I wake up now waning to go back in time to whoever stepped on the wrong bug and push them out of the way.

      All the networks are owned by the same three or four Trump sycophants that were front row at his inaguaration. I sure do wonder what they’ll decide.

      Ain’t nobody got time to watch the Dump.
      He’ll blame stuff on Biden, Obama, or Clinton. Dude found cheat codes for life. The more he lies, cheats, and rapes…the more people love him. My own sis is convinced he’s a god.

    14. I would love to see his meltdown if the networks didn’t run it lol thrashing about on the floor, hands and feet pounding the ground like the 2 yr old that he is

    15. does that really matter? it doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s gonna give the speech and what he’s going to say in it is detrimental to the us

    16. There is no way- at this point all of these outlets will not miss out on any viewers they can get, and our current president is treated as entertainment more than anything else now. They won’t sit out on it, even if it is the responsible thing to do.

      So… why is he still running the country if media won’t air his speeches? Lol.

      I want to see them start and then cut away after the first lie, prob less than a min in. And have him standing there throwing a tantrum while they are not airing anything.
