"SNIP.....

President Trump suggested the United States should create a “worldwide network” to combat the “unfair” way the country is treated by the media, saying CNN doesn’t have enough competition overseas, Politico reports.

Said Trump: “Throughout the world, CNN has a powerful voice portraying the United States in an unfair and false way. Something has to be done, including the possibility of the United States starting our own Worldwide Network to show the World the way we really are, GREAT!”

I mean, any fifth-grader knows more civics than he does.

And what he considers important... It's just nuts. How can his minions not notice that he never talks about anything important, only what's frosting his butt at that very moment?

All Trump all the time. Ivanka and Melania can hawk their knock-off foreign made fashion and "beauty" products to fill up some time. Canned hunts with your boys. Soft core pageants galore. Perhaps Trump can even convince Hannity to jump from Fox.

Another useless idea as dumb as his wall. There's no way he could get it funded.
