President Trump said that regulators should consider revoking the licenses of broadcasters that air negative coverage or commentary of him, indicating that his assault on critics' language is motivated at least in part by personal animus. nyti.ms/3W2Jz8p

"It was not immediately clear what statistics or laws he was referencing."

The ones he made up inside his makeup poisoned skull.

We all knew this was coming.

Trump really wants to be dictator before he dies.

"When 97 percent of the stories are bad about a person"

It's possible that that person is really bad.

Trump's mental illness will never permit him to see that he is disliked.

No matter what he does or how he does it.

I take his use of the word "illegal" means he's already told A.G. Bondi to start drawing up a more narrow new line between free and hate so it will fit Trump's definition of "hate" that his attorneys can argue vigorously in court ~ with proof provided by the DOJ so it doesn't appear personal.

Trump is sneaky. He's using the government to do his dirty work.
