Donald Trump Says ABC Should Lose Its Broadcast License After Getting Irate Over Reporter's Questions About Jamal Khasho

Source: Deadline

Donald Trump called for ABC to lose its broadcast license after he grew irate at correspondent Mary Bruce after she asked Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman about the 2018 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, and later asked the president about the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Trump has berated ABC correspondents before and has called for networks to lose their licenses, his latest anger directed at Bruce for her questions and the way they were asked.

After chiding Bruce for asking a “horrible,” insubordinate” and “just a terrible question,” Trump chided her, “You’re all psyched up. Somebody psyched you over at ABC and they’re going to psych it. You’re a terrible person and a terrible reporter.”

He later accused ABC of being “one of the perpetrators” of a Democratic hoax over Epstein.

As usual, Trump does not know what he is talking about. He is the head of the government yet he has no idea how things work.

What a stupid loser.

He’s also a whiny little baby.

going to say that. Local stations have to have their license to broadcast every few years I believe. Looked it up and it’s every eight years.
