    Networks should demand to see Trump’s speech in advance — and refuse to air it if it’s filled with lies: CNN analyst

    CNN analyst Joe Lockhart, who previously served as White House press secretary under former President Bill Clinton, said on Monday that networks should refuse to air President Donald Trump’s planned prime-time address to the nation if it’s filled with lies.

    Given the way the Trump administration has been willing to push easily refutable lies in its efforts to sell Americans on the necessity of building the border wall, Lockhart said that networks owed it to their viewers to make sure that the president doesn’t peddle these kinds of lies in an address to the nation where no one would be able to correct him in real time.

    No President should ever get up before a camera and lie constantly to the American people, but sadly that is what we have going for us. Fortunately the mid term elections proved, beyond a doubt, that the American people aren't fooled by this constant bull shit. The address tonight will be a total and complete waste of time.

    Well then politically you should be happy about it because it will just make Trump look bad. Sit back and enjoy the show.

    Will the democrat party counter his address with a call to eliminate ICE?

    There is nothing short of numerous indictments that will make Trump look worse that he already has.

    The idea is as floated to delay it and fact check it as it’s played back. I liked that idea.

    Trump should have done this weeks ago. Regarding the OP: is there any doubt that a major part of the media is the opposition party?

    There is nothing Trump could ever say or do, there is no lie too big, that will ever allow his wall to be built. This is a total farce. Just today, information has come out that more "people of interest" have been caught on the northern border than on the southern

    Your black boy did and you continued to pucker up to his ass. When he was justifiably called out for it at the SOTU address, you ass lickers got all up in arms that a white MAN dare call him out.

    Donald Trump is the president...he should be allowed to address the nation.

    Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer will be allowed to address the nation in rebuttal afterwards.

    The news channels and PBS will have plenty of people refuting his many lies...and for sure, they will be plentiful.

    Life will go on.

    Some of the extreme measures being suggested here are the kinds of things that come back to bite people on the ass.

    Let him speak.

    He does more damage to himself when he speaks than any of his detractors do when they speak against him.

    His supporters will claim he spoke truth and made sense; his detractors will claim he is full of shit and made no sense...and the people in the middle will listen and make a reasonable decision. I suspect they will break toward the "he is full of shit" side by a large percentage.

    Of course not. Those Trans Righty's like Threedee and Cawacko who wring their hands with their buddies Jonah Goldberg and Max Boot over Trumps Tweets fail to realize that his tweets are how he gets around the Democrat Media Industrial Complex.

    The media has been the enemy of the people for years. They are just more open about it now. The best thing that President Trump has done is rip the mask off the lie that is the Trans Righty NeverTrumpers and expose the media for the enemy that they are.

    They have good reason to be lol.

    Trump is quite capable of giving a good speech—he has certainly done it before. The News Fakers spend considerable energy and resources cultivating Trump’s image in a fashion that suits their agenda. They certainly don’t won’t him in front of the cameras sounding persuasive speaking from the Oval Office.

    Also, the Fake Newsers are inveterate liars.

    If they were honest about it they would say: we are on Schumer and Pelosi’s side of this issue and we can’t just allow Trump to use the office of the presidency to sway public opinion against Chuck and Nancy. If that were to happen, they would have to give in on the government shutdown.

    The News Fakers don’t serve the people: they serve themselves and the democrat’s narrative—the truly are the enemy of the people.

    Censorship is good?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    because he speaks Truth, straight forward no BS truth.

    And who care if they don't "AIR" it.
    Everyone will tune in to whoever IS airing it.

    It's their ratings, let their triggered madness once again force them into a bad business decision

    you have Supreme Court Justices (Ruth BAder) postponing retirement because of trump, instead of enjoying what life she has left she is going to wear IV's and oxygen to drag herself around parading as a Justice

    you have Senior Congresswomen, (Pelosi) postponing her retirement because of trump, Instead of spending more time with her grandkids, enjoying her golden years,
    she's fighting like a gamecock with her balls in a noose.

    triggered nut-bags, like the ones on this forum, is one of my great pleasures, watching people waste their lives angry over something they have no control over is a strange phenom

    TDS may one day be a course study in psych classes
