Donald Trump just went on a tweetstorm attacking Fox News. Guess he’s finally started to realize that Fox News was never really on his side.
Watching @FoxNews weekend anchors is worse than watching low ratings Fake News @CNN, or Lyin’ Brian Williams (remember when he totally fabricated a War Story trying to make himself into a hero, & got fired. A very dishonest journalist!) and the crew of degenerate……

…..Comcast (NBC/MSNBC) Trump haters, who do whatever Brian & Steve tell them to do. Like CNN, NBC is also way down in the ratings. But @FoxNews, who failed in getting the very BORING Dem debates, is now loading up with Democrats & even using Fake unsourced @nytimes as….

…a “source” of information (ask the Times what they paid for the Boston Globe, & what they sold it for (lost 1.5 Billion Dollars), or their old headquarters building disaster, or their unfunded liability? @FoxNews is changing fast, but they forgot the people who got them there!

Tucker Carlson’s broadcast is the only truly worthwhile show on Fox News. Outside of that, the network isn’t all that much better than CNN or MSNBC. They only went through the motions of being pro-Trump in order to maintain relevancy. But now with the 2020 election coming up, they’re promoting Democrat debates and hiring disreputable individuals like Donna Brazile.
But the base of his support was always on the Internet. That’s where the energy of the 2016 campaign was. Unfortunately, he allowed Silicon Valley to ban his most prominent supporters from all the major social media sites. Take for example Alex Jones, MILO, Gavin McInnes etc..
We are now at the point where run of the mill MAGApedes are being targeted for censorship. The popular pro-Trump message board /r/The_Donald has been quarantined by Reddit and will probably soon be removed. And we’ve even seen how cuckservative comedians like Steven Crowder have been demonetized and nearly banned off of YouTube.
The combination of all these personalities, represented an enormous pro-Trump media machine that he let be systematically destroyed by the assholes in Silicon Valley. Even though he has this upcoming social media summit to talk about this situation, I am extremely pessimistic that he will do anything substantive to fix this situation. The time for talk was over years ago. We need action against these organizations to protect the First Amendment.
