Your support matters…The Last Word:
“What you just saw was a gross violation of network standards and practices as we have known them throughout most of the history of television. It put an explicit NBC endorsement on a Trump campaign for president, except it didn’t. Because NBC executives know that Donald Trump’s presidential posturing is completely fraudulent. They know that on May 16th they are going to announce that Donald Trump will be returning for another season in NBC’s employ, pretending to fire people on TV.”
