In reply to the discussion: Trump to Welker on MTP: "You're either crooked or you're stupid. I've had enough. Thank you darling," [View all]Miles Archer
(24,838 posts)62. He goes on the shows because he's spooked networks into paying him millions for no good reason
There's an important scene in the first "Expendables" movie (Stallone / Statham / Willis).
Eric Roberts, as drug lord James Munroe, tells David Zayas as General Garza that he's got to shoot 3 of his men who betrayed him as "an example to the others."
Trump's crowed like a rooster about the money he's made from his lawsuits.
And, he reads off a laundry list to Welker of the networks who are "crooked" (basically everyone but Fox and Newsmax).
So it's more Phony Soprano mob boss-speak for "What I did to them, I can do to you."
Also more of his rapist mindset in action.

OP
If the press would fact check him more, and push him more - it would be inevitable

She should have finished it, but I disagree about blasting him. Just coolly summarize the lack of evidence

He also knows that the "networks" have larger audiences than cable generally speaking...
