Remember what happened when LBJ lost Cronkite? Well, the actual phrase "If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost middle America" refers to President Lyndon B. Johnson's reaction to Walter Cronkite's 1968 broadcast after the Tet Offensive, where Cronkite declared the Vietnam War a stalemate, a pivotal moment that reportedly led LBJ to decide not to seek re-election, though the exact quote's veracity is debated, with some sources calling it an apocryphal myth and others confirming Johnson's aides said he made the remark after seeing clips. Alright, Trump isn't LBJ, and Morgan isn't Cronkite, but the end of yet another presidency is already in sight
The current CBS anchor Tony Dokoupil, just interviewed Trump. At the end of the interview, Karoline Leavitt told Dokoupil: the interview must be aired as is, no editing.
Dokoupil thinking she's joking, goes: sure. Leavitt responded with: we will sue you if it the entire interview does not air in full and unedited.
The interview lasted 13 minutes.
At one point, Trump said, referring to Kamala Harris: "If she got in, you probably wouldn't have a job right now. Your boss, who's an amazing guy, might be bust, You wouldn't have this job-certainly whatever the hell they're paying you."
He's openly admitting that CBS is now owned by the Larry Ellison, and this was made possible, because Trump got the FCC to cut corners to allow Paramount to purchase CBS, and in the process, make CBS pay Trump several $ millions.
