How long before the fascist cheeto tries to force networks to air this propaganda?

"I'm Donald Trump and I approve this message!" Is this a joke?!

 

[abundant]

They know what it means

I wouldn't be so sure of that. Do some know what it means? Yes. But knowing how dumb and ignorant Trump and the people that surround him are, I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't.

They had to show the other ads.

If he had an opponent they would need to run it.

Not necessarily. They could just refuse to air all 2020 presidential ads.

2020? The fuck?

Populists never stop campaigning. Rob Ford played a similar game. (But he developed terminal cancer on re-election year, and had to drop out of the race.)

Well...

On Wednesday, a customer service representative from the FDA’s Office of Facilities sent an email to staff informing them that TVs in a Silver Spring, Maryland office will now be exclusively turned to Fox News.

The email — a screencap of which was initially obtained and shared to Twitter by journalist Paul Thacker and later by BuzzFeed’s Julia Reinstein — was sent to “let everyone know” why TVs had been changed “from CNN to FOX.” It was sent to researchers at the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, the FDA branch that oversees medical products.

“A decision from the current administration administrative officials has requested that all monitors, under our control, on the White Oak Campus, display FOX news,” it says. “Sorry for the inconvenience, but I am unable to change any of the monitors to any other news source at this time.

Well...

That's not creepy or authoritarian at all. Nope.

I'll keep saying it, this is the shit that keeps scaring me the most that he is doing. And remember, we aren't even 1/3rd of the way through the first of his 4 years. We have a loooooooong way to go.
