Trump screams irony and hypocrisy about NBC [1]

Trump has gone and attacked the news media again, this time it was NBC. He already won the war against CBS and ABC, so it was time to take on the only network left standing.
"Wow, 'Concast's' NBC is down in viewership 28% this year."
"Concast" is his funny name for Comcast, just like we call Fox, Faux News. The 28% is a number dragged out of thin air. The newscast had a 7% increase since Tony Llamas took over. Sunday Night Football had the best year since 2015. Total broadcast viewership for everybody is down below 20%, but that doesn't count the same programming being streamed. Trump's just angry because NBC fired him when he started talking trash in 2015 about Mexicans, and newer hatred of MSNBC.
"Their programming is terrible, their management even worse."
He's just angry that he made "The Apprentice" a failure. The NBC management hasn't kowtowed to Trump, yet. Comcast is so big, with Universal and Xfinity, that they could fight moves against them. Of course, I was saying that about Disney-ABC, too. Trump's lawsuit against CBS over the 60 Minutes' Kamala Harris interview was an easy win for CBS, but they chose to lose.
"They are an arm of the Democrat Party, and should be held accountable for that."
Democratic Party, you imbecile. I suppose Fox News is completely independent with no bias.
"Likewise, Fake News ABC!!!"
He already extracted blood from ABC. There will be more. There is still an FCC DEI investigation going on with Disney-ABC. No more of those people of color cartoons.
"Networks aren't allowed to be politically pawns for the Democrat Party."
Democratic Party for the second time, dolt. Fox, Newsmax, and OAN are just pillars for the freedom of speech. Seems to me, MSNBC has taken on the Democrats for folding on important bills, and passing nominations.
"It has become so outrageous that, in my opinion, their licenses could and should, be revoked!"
Even if you got the FCC to revoke their owned and operated stations, of which there are 12, there are still 223 affiliated stations. I don't think you're going to get away with that anytime soon.
Hard to figure out where he had a break in golf, advertising his courses and getting U.K. and EU officials to come see him. And there was the long one accusing the DNC of paying for endorsements by Beyonce and Al Sharpton, leaving out Oprah, just before these two.
He does posts in the Beast, Marine One, Air Force One, and he probably does Truth Social posts while riding around in a golf cart. They don't let him drive anything. For good reason. Some have postulated that he does them while on the toilet. That explains a lot about their quality.
