    The second sentence is absolutely true, but we made our biggest mistake way before that. Not hanging every confederate after the war was probably it. But I’m sure there are historians that could argue for something earlier.

    Not pushing Reagan off a cliff is arguably the biggest mistake

    It's a long series of mistakes. Not finishing off the Confederacy, not putting Nixon in prison for Watergate and sabotaging peace talks with the Vietcong, not putting Reagan in prison for sabotaging negotiations during the Iran Hostage Crisis. They've been crooks for a century and there's only one solution.

    "state run", names it after himself.

    There are going to be a lot of 70 and 80 year olds desperately trying to figure out how to use YouTube tomorrow.

    Are they going to follow the equal time rule trump is always complaining about?

    This is fantastic, in my opinion.

    Everybody knows exactly what this is. They can't blame "spin", they can't demonize their own programming, they can't say they've been "misquoted", no more "taken out of context", they will be forced to pick their own cherries.

    This leaves them without any plausible deniability. Hours of programming means hours of incompetence on display for all to see.

    I'm actually excited about this development. GOOD JOB MORONS

    I'll be taking bets on how long before that channel violates so many YouTube rules that the channel gets shut down

    Google won't do it. I'm not betting, but I'm almost that sure.

    There was a brief but glorious period after Trump lost reelection at the end of his first term where all the social media sites finally started cracking down on the entire alt-right. Automated misinformation detectors went up, agitators and openly racist accounts (including Trump) were banned, and things almost started to look like they might get better for once.

    The moment Trump started polling well in the last election, they reversed course real quick. All those programs were shut down and the worst people in the world got their accounts unbanned just in time for the 2024 election.

    It's not surprisng he doubled down. That's his only move.

    I don't think he can legally have any press at all unless he gives equal access to all press. Even a state-run agency is not exempted.

    I mean maybe he'll get special permission from SCOTUS, but it will come to that.

    Also the name on the network implies he intends to keep the station privately, and that runs contrary to the notion the channel is state run.

    Oddly, I feel like this is going to affect Trump more than other things he did. The media isn't going to like Trump taking things away from them. Even Fox News is against this one.
