Why do they need equal air time when we all know Trump always speaks the truth and is our greatest President ever. :grimacing:
Also he is running his country like his businesses ,right into bankruptcy.

The TV networks should also fact check Trump in real time. Difficult job, but it needs to be done with that lying POS.

Yeah, maybe no one will watch, but the Dems. deserve equal time. The networks have to know that, perhaps there might be a little misinformation coming from tRump, and to be fair they need to let them speak.
Wonder if Faux would put the Dems. on?

A running banner that says. “This is all lies” seems easy enough.

Not so hard. He has about 5 or 6 phony comments that he rehashes all the time. We know the 4,000 Number refers to terrorists blocked at airports. We know that 3 suspicious people were taken into custody the first half of 2018 while trying to come through CANADA!

Also, the media should spend less time in DC and more at the border to report on the situation and conditions in the concentration camps where the children are kept.

Well, considering this will be a 2020 Campaign Rally speech covered live by the major networks, this should be the case… unfortunately, the networks don’t care about things like this as long as it is the Republican being covered.

I think the networks should run a 10 sec buffer and bleap out lies like they are curse words.

Would be like a redacted Mueller filing.

The ----- ----- is the ---- bigley ---- ----, ---- tremendous.

Democrats ---- the ----- -----, Pelosi.

So…Did they get an answer? Nowhere have I seen that this is happening. I heard they asked last night. And now they’re demanding it. Still, I haven’t read even from this article if its happening. What’s the holdup on an answer? Seems the network, which I must say also includes all the cable channels, took no time at all approving the Orange Turd’s request.

They didn’t let Obama have a major address from the Oval Office to address the country over immigration in 2014 or the Affordable Care Act as well, because the networks told him it was too political. WTF is this then? Give me a fucking break.

Well if Obama had simply cut the taxes of the corporate ownership of the MSM, ended Net Neutrality and provided a steady stream of nonsense for the MSM to report on they the media might have helped him out the same way they care and feed Republicans.

Payment for services rendered.

Someone posted that all the networks were going to be carrying the lies of the day tonight.

The Dems should go first and do a news conference prebuttal around 4 or 5 p.m., in time for the evening news.

They know most of what he’ll say, so it shouldn’t be hard. They’ll get a lot more attention that way than they would for a conventional response. And they’ll inoculate viewers against Trump’s lies more effectively than if they rely on the networks for simultaneous or after-the-fact fact checking.

LOVE IT.

DJT loves the limelight and doesn’t want to share.

Forcing him to split the time 3 ways is a strike to the ego and will make him wince even more. Let him know that every time he stands in front of microphone, he’s going to get matched minute by minute and word for word.

You can’t hide behind the mic anymore Donnie.

God, I can’t wait to see the Twitter ID eruption afterwards. Over under on capitalized words is 7.

Trunp’s speech is not political. It is the President addressing a grave crisis that he created.

Sorry. But that is political since he’s using unilateral powers and all the levers of government to pump up his base in order to get himself out of the box he’s put himself in. If you think he gives a shit about federal workers “who will make adjustments” over the hardships he’s created because “they’re all Democrats” according to him, or the 75% of the Americans that don’t want this wall, you’re kidding yourself.
