Donald Trump is a TV addict.

Seriously, that's all he ever cares about. The man is addicted to television in ways that are far worse than the worst drug addicts that you know. He doesn't have any friends. His only friend is the TV. That's why he wants constant admiration from it. He sits in front of multiple screens every single day monitoring every channel and then complains if they say even the slightest thing bad about him.

He's addicted to one channel in particular - Fox. That's the only channel where he wants to look good on it consistently. That's the only channel he invites on Air Force One. That's the only channel he talks to on a daily basis. And when things go bad, he immediately runs to Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham like they are his mommy and daddy. And when that fails, he'll fall back on his shiithole social media site to complain to the idiots who still listen to him.

And like most addicts, he'll tell you he isn't one. But then you factor the fact when he's not at a press conference he has multiple screens in front of him all blaring cable news from every single channel. Even the ones he hate watches like CNN and MSNBC. But he wouldn't dare seek out other opinions. He'll only watch what makes him look good and kisses his ass. He looks for people who dare tio say anything negative about them and then blasts it on his bullshit social media site, which he started after he got banned from Twitter for attempting to overthrow the US government.

Now he's abusing his power and selling out our media to some of the most horrible people on earth - the Saudi oligarch regime. People who are known for absolutely atrocious human rights violations. All to enrich one guy who has more money than entire continents do - Larry Ellison. He's about to get a sizable percentage of the media and control almost everything that we see, hear and watch. And our media will be flipping to kiss Donny's ass in ways you can't even begin to imagine. Donny's favorite channel was just the beginning in our march towards fascism.
