He continued, “Why would they want someone back who does so poorly, who’s not funny, and who puts the Network in jeopardy by playing 99% positive Democrat GARBAGE. He is yet another arm of the DNC and, to the best of my knowledge, that would be a major Illegal Campaign Contribution. I think we’re going to test ABC out on this. Let’s see how we do. Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative. A true bunch of losers! Let Jimmy Kimmel rot in his bad Ratings.”

    Please do. Discovery will be a bitch.

    Edit: Do not try to placate fascists and/or bullies. They always come back for more. ABC marked themselves as weak and will have to fight 10x as hard to get this to stop. If they don't, they will literally give Trump everything, and he will want more.

    I mean, why wouldn't he? The last time he sued them, he ended up $16 million richer. The thing about stupid people is they generally learn by behavioural conditioning more than anything else. Rat push button, rat get reward, so rat push button again.

    ABC thought they were buying safety for a mere $16 million, which was pocket change to them. In reality, all they did was tell Trump where the treats can be found. Now he's gonna be like a dog that found a cookie in the couch cushions one time, and so now goes rooting around in there every time he can because there might be another one.

    And we all said at the time, that's not how blackmail works. Once they've gotten money out of you, you can count on them coming back for more.

    Your dog analogy reminded me of a story I once heard, about a guy walking his dog. One day, his dog found a package of pork chops that were inexplicably hidden under a bush. For that dog, it was literally like finding buried treasure. It made such an impact on him, that he checked under that bush on every wall, for YEARS.

    It's shit like this that the lawyers were waiting for.

    I always thought it was unrealistic that Charlie Brown would keep trying to kick the football. "Surely" I thought to myself "a real person would have learned their lesson long ago that it's not going to happen."

    And here we are with people somehow still thinking "ah yes, this time the football will be kicked!"

    Gavin Newson? Moment he starts hitting back at trump you guys jumped out of the wood work to basically say he’s worse than Trump. If I was a Democrat I would let you guys burn until you’re begging for anyone but Trump cause clearly you’re not there yet. I would say “enjoy trump” as president except he’s spreading fascism globally. I blame the American left for Trump 2024 as much as I blame MAGA

    At this point every American can burn along with your country. You can’t be surprised that the rest of us hate your country, especially us who have been directly victimized by your country and people. You’re al to blame, you all share responsibility when your government commits atrocities or fucks up the rest of the world. Your leader is one of the worst humans on earth, you have to realize that makes you all toxic to us. Same as how you can think of Putin and Russia and never think of the Russians who oppose him and are fighting against him

    not at all. i hate my country, too, for similar reasons. what's actually surprising to me, is how you're so narrow minded you've become just as biggotted and unempathetic as Trump himself, just about a different group of people (Americans). How does it feel to know what blind hatred towards people who are in fact just like you feels like? I bet it feels good, but the cognitive dissonance may start eating at you. unless you become such an extremist you start blowing white people up 🤷

    People are gunning for Newsome because he's just another Establishment Democrat shitting on the progressive movement. Also, he has welcomed the most vicious MAGAs on his show, and instead of confronting them, and humiliating them for their treason, corruption, racism, and pedophilia, he lets them freely spew their poison without rebuttal, and when they their disgusting racist jokes, he doesn't slap them down, HE LAUGHS ALONG WITH THEM!

    That's why the left hates Newsome. They'd love it if all he was doing was torturing Trump, but he loses support when he tries to appease Treasonous Pedophiles. His podcast should give a platform to those trying to fight against MAGA, and instead he is giving MAGA access to his audience, so they can try to recruit them.

    Gavin Newsom is a ghoul and always has been, the only good thing about him is that he's standing up to Trump.

    And even that is mostly performative, and when it's not, such as with gerrymandering, it's weak half measures

    He's no kind of leader to rally behind... But he's getting all the exposure and relevance in the world

    And with that comes reminders that he's a fascism-lite politician. He's not being turned on, he's just in the spotlight, with the attention and criticism that comes with that

    He needs to be careful with that rhetoric, or they will use it against him. They could say that Fox News is an extension of the RNC, and just simply list all of the people he's hired that are former Fox News people. I'm fairly certain he's the dumbest president we've had, even more so than Bush Jr.

    Donald Trump threatens to sue over lots of things. Let's see if he actually does, as this will be a clear cut violation of the 1st Amendment & a will allow ABC to recoup that $16m + more.
