The president snapped after watching a TV show he didn’t like and said CBS should lose its license.

Donald Trump on Sunday called for “maximum fines and punishment” against CBS and its corporate parent, Paramount, over Sunday night’s “60 Minutes” broadcast.

In two separate posts on his Truth Social website, Trump complained about the show’s interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris last year ― which he is suing the company over ― and railed against Sunday night’s reports on Greenland and the war in Ukraine.

    Hitler was notorious for his temper tantrums. He is confirmed to have watched Charlie Chaplin’s iconic 1940 film ‘Thr Great Dictator’ but never said or wrote what he thought of it. Charlie Chaplin said that he would have given anything to know what he thought of it.

          The allied forces explicitly decided not to try assassinating Hitler. They were worried someone more competent would take his place.

          Not really, he wasn’t. The myth of Nazi/fascist competence comes from a combination of propaganda and “right time, right place” in terms of when they took the reins of the German economy. A kind of funny example that isn’t Nazis, but their contemporary fascists, Mussolini’s Italian regime damaged the on-time performance of trains in Italy, but the regime kept saying the trains were running on time to the point where it’s become a whole saying about excusing fascism because of its competence/results (“at least the trains run on time”).

      Maybe they just showed him the same cut as in Iron Sky (2012). It would be amazin if that joke was that deep.
