Trump cancels Jan 6 press conference. Will attend Jan. 5 rally in Arizona.

In canceling his 1/6 presser, Trump blames the 1/6 select committee and segments of the media; he says he’ll discuss the same topics at his 1/15 Arizona rally. Much of his statement is ad hominem and conspiracy theories (hence not screenshotting).

that none of the MSM would carry it.

His psychosis couldn't deal with it so he rushes with all haste to a mob of his fanatics.

Perfect!

TFG was not going to get live TV coverage




On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump announced he was pulling the plug on a press conference he was scheduled to give on the first anniversary of the January 6 Capitol insurrection, not even a week after formally announcing it would be taking place.

According to Maggie Haberman of The New York Times, one of the reasons for the cancelation is that Trump's advisors and associates privately told him that the press conference would be a mistake — and that he would probably not get his event covered live, something that he reveled in throughout his TV career and as president.

the distinct possibility that Arizona might be playing a home game at the time this rally is scheduled to take place?
