He is bluntly stating that his intentions are to silence criticism to his fragile ego.

Will no one stand up for the 1st Amendment?

Where are the lawyers of these networks sounding the alarm?

Both CBS and ABC have already paid a shakedown to him. So, more than likely they’ll submit because they are afraid of him.

But they better be careful, they may lose a lot of viewers.
