Trump accuses NBC of ‘treason’ in online demand for an investigation

Former President Donald Trump is calling for NBC to be investigated for “Country Threatening Treason” on account of reporting abour him by the media outlet and its affiliates.

“I say up front, openly, and proudly, that when I WIN the Presidency of the United States, they and others of the LameStream Media will be thoroughly scrutinized for their knowingly dishonest and corrupt coverage of people, things, and events,” Trump said in a social media rant aimed at NBC’s parent company Comcast Sunday night.

Among Trump’s grievances is coverage by NBC and other networks of his convivial relationship with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, whose agenda is at odds with that of the United States government.

“They are a true threat to Democracy and are, in fact, THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!” the 45th president ranted on Truth Social. “The Fake News Media should pay a big price for what they have done to our once great Country!”
