Some think Trump is doing this to launch TRUMP TV - plans to start media co -

Breitbart, Bannon and Ailes: Has this all been a cynical infomercial for the launch of Trump TV?

Evidence is mounting to support the notion that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump knows he’s going to lose the 2016 election but doesn’t care because his real plan is to start a new media company when he loses.

Stelter, the host of CNN’s Reliable Sources.

He went on, “Well, what if Trump loses? Think about who he has on his team now. Steve Bannon, Roger Ailes informally, Roger Stone, the confidante who’s known for his dirty tricks. He has all the right people to put in place a new media company, whether it’s a television network or on Facebook or something we can’t picture yet. I think we have to at least consider that possibility even if Trump would never acknowledge that’s real today.”

Or Trump for President.

Seriously, I don't think anything this man touches succeeds in any respect.

At the very least, fully half of this country Is going to hate his fucking guts by the time this election is over. They're never going to want to see his ugly mug on their TVs ever again. Nor will they want to hear anything about him from anyone else, ever.

Cable TV is already hemorrhaging viewers. No way is someone going to pony up the dough to fund a "Trump TV". They'd do a lot better creating a 24-hour network devoted entirely to Kim Kardashian's ass.
