The president snapped after watching a TV show he didn’t like and said CBS should lose its license.

Donald Trump on Sunday called for “maximum fines and punishment” against CBS and its corporate parent, Paramount, over Sunday night’s “60 Minutes” broadcast.

In two separate posts on his Truth Social website, Trump complained about the show’s interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris last year ― which he is suing the company over ― and railed against Sunday night’s reports on Greenland and the war in Ukraine.

    His tweets read like Donald Trump putting his own words into an LLM that edits text to sound like Donald Trump. Like he typed his normal nonsense into ChatGPT and said “make it sound smart but still like Donald Trump.”

    Endless reports of Trump melting down. Nothing about real news or change.

    So sick of seeing that cheetoh-face dim-wit puppet. Dreaming of times when we never see it again.

    Blatant threats of government retaliation against private citizens.

    Clear violation of the First Amendment.

    And nothing will happen.

    Fuck Trump.

    Hitler was notorious for his temper tantrums. He is confirmed to have watched Charlie Chaplin’s iconic 1940 film ‘Thr Great Dictator’ but never said or wrote what he thought of it. Charlie Chaplin said that he would have given anything to know what he thought of it.

          The allied forces explicitly decided not to try assassinating Hitler. They were worried someone more competent would take his place.

          Not really, he wasn’t. The myth of Nazi/fascist competence comes from a combination of propaganda and “right time, right place” in terms of when they took the reins of the German economy. A kind of funny example that isn’t Nazis, but their contemporary fascists, Mussolini’s Italian regime damaged the on-time performance of trains in Italy, but the regime kept saying the trains were running on time to the point where it’s become a whole saying about excusing fascism because of its competence/results (“at least the trains run on time”).

    “They are not a ‘News Show,’ but a dishonest Political Operative simply disguised as ‘News,’ and must be responsible for what they have done, and are doing,” the president wrote.

    Isn’t this clown being sued by the same firm that sued Fox “News” and won?

    Cluster B personality disorders, specifically Narcissistic types, aren’t keen on truth, they create their own “truth” and gaslight anyone who contradicts that personal “truth”. Allegedly.

    Cluster B, both borderline and narcissistic types, fear exposure of who and what they really are at baseline. The difference is a borderline will turn that anger and madness inward, possibly to the point of self harm and suicide, while the narcissistic type will turn that anger and vitriol at the source of potential or real exposure of truth. Allegedly.

    “maximum fines and punishment”

    Sure. Those are both 0, jackass.

    He should just go ahead and have that stroke he’s been foreshadowing for years.

    This guy has himself surrounded by yes men and is locked into his own disinformation bubble for most of the time. Getting a glimpse of what people who aren’t kissing his ass really are thinking about him must have been quite the whiplash for his tiny sick mind to take.
