MeidasTouch - Trump's Speech Tonight, and Why Nobody Should Air It Live

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Tonight, Trump is expected to deliver a primetime address claiming that China accessed US voter data during the 2020 election and that the CIA knew about it and sat on it during his first term. The setup here isn’t subtle. He’s laying groundwork to imply, or maybe say outright, that Democratic officials in states like Georgia weren’t legitimately elected. While he builds toward that speech, he has spent the last two days posting photo after photo of himself with Xi Jinping, the very man he’s accusing of orchestrating this supposed plot.

This is happening just months before the midterms. A president who is watching his approval collapse, who is watching his own party privately admit he’s sinking their chances this fall, decides now is the moment to manufacture a reason to question the legitimacy of Democratic wins. Senator Jon Ossoff has reportedly been discussed as a target of this exact narrative, and according to reporting from MSNBC’s Katy Tur, most elected Republicans privately believe the president has lost it and is dragging them toward a wipeout in November.

And that’s before you even get to what’s happening with his own staff.

JUST IN: NBC and ABC Will Not Air Trump’s Primetime Address Live

NBC and ABC will not be airing President Donald Trump’s planned national address this evening, multiple reporters shared Thursday and Mediaite has confirmed. Instead, both networks will show the speech on their streaming platforms. There is precedent for the move — networks previously declined to air certain speeches given by President Barack Obama and President Joe Biden in real time.

Brian Stelter posted the news via a series of threaded posts on X.

“In sum: Trump will not be getting the wall-to-wall airtime he wants from everyone, but the speech will be widely streamed and available,” he explained.

“NBC says ‘we will provide live coverage of the president’s remarks at 9pm ET tonight on NBC News NOW. We plan to air a special report on the network following the remarks,'” Stelter continued.

A spokesperson for ABC said in a statement shared with Mediaite, “ABC News will run President Trump’s speech on ABC News Live and ABC News Radio with comprehensive, anchored coverage. We will also cover the speech in our regular network newscasts and, as always, our Special Report team is fully prepared to break into network programming to deliver live updates and reporting should significant developments occur.”
