"The [New York] Times, I think they’re going to endorse me," he said at a news conference in New York. "I think that ABC, I think — well Fox, I like Fox, I really do."

"But I think ABC, CBS, NBC, The Times, they’re all going to endorse me," he added. "Because if they don’t they’re going out of business. Can you imagine if you didn’t have me?”

TV networks do not issue political endorsements, and the Times endorsed Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election, as did a majority of the 100 largest American newspapers.

Trump frequently attacks the press at large, often labeling it as the "enemy of the people" and suggesting that the United States's libel laws should be changed. .................................

That’s his mindset. His narcissism drives him to believe (and demand that others believe) that his ratings (newsworthiness) are what keeps the networks afloat.

It’s beyond delusion. He’s sampling his own wares, as we used to say about cracked-up drug dealers.

Every time trump trashes Democrats, accusers or any American, he breaks his oath of office. We have all just become numb. He is NOT America's president.
