34. I'm pretty sure he will go the "cable network" route...

...and there are two things wrong with that.

First...as ridiculous as it may sound...many of his followers are royally pissed of at Fox for not being pro-trump 100% of the time. One suggested the other day that most of the personalities should be fired and the channel should be run by Hannity and Pirro.

Second...he wouldn't have to lift a finger to incite violence or "revolution"...all he'd have to do would be to keep fanning the flames and doing "Crooked Hillary" dog whistles. And the fact that he's got Bannon in his camp means that it would be Brietbart TV, the lowest of the low, and his flock would gobble it up like starved puppies encountering a fresh can of Alpo.
