Trump May Start a TV Networkhttps://politicalwire.com/2016/06/16/trump-may-start-a-tv-network/
"SNIP.............
Vanity Fair: Trump is indeed considering creating his own media business, built on the audience that has supported him thus far in his bid to become the next president of the United States. According to several people briefed on the discussions, the presumptive Republican nominee is examining the opportunity presented by the audience currently supporting him. He has also discussed the possibility of launching a mini-media conglomerate outside of his existing TV-production business, Trump Productions LLC.
He has, according to one of these people, enlisted the consultation of his daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who owns the The New York Observer. Trumps rationale, according to this person, is that, win or lose, we are onto something here. Weve triggered a base of the population that hasnt had a voice in a long time.'

Sarah Palin Developing Her Own Judge Judy-Style Reality Show
The onetime vice presidential candidate has been tapped to preside over a planned reality court show that would premiere next year, if it gets picked up by stations. She signed a deal in February with Montana-based production company Warm Springs, a source close to the process tells PEOPLE.
"It's a production deal," the source explains. "What happens next is she'll meet with stations, make a pilot and sell it."
Unlike the two famous TV judges, Palin does not have a juris doctor degree. But the source notes that the bestselling author has a variety of other qualities that make her perfectly suited to the job.
"Palin's telegenic personality, wide appeal and common sense wisdom make her a natural for this kind of format and she was Warm Springs' top pick for this project."
Common sense wisdom??????????????
What he is really saying is he knows there are enough mouth breathing knuckle draggers in this country to tune in.

That actually makes sense.

(7,638 posts)The ever so reluctant speaker, ok I'll do it if you really want me to. His endorsement, and rejection later is a setup to once again make him the ok if you really insist I will run candidate.
Lets face it the 16 dwarves are considered losers and the previous presidential candidates are pretty damaged. If anything happens to remove tRump expect Ryan to be the reluctant nominee.
