So, Donald Trump says 97% news written about him is bad, but ditches self-reflection to define free speech

President Donald Trump has now stated that because he claims 97% of coverage about him is negative and — therefore “cheating,” he doesn’t consider it free speech. And that already has some people thinking this could mark yet another policy shift by the Trump administration.

Trump complaining about people speaking negatively of him is rather ridiculous considering he just called Letterman a loser on Truth Social. And before that, during his campaigns, he called Kamala Harris a “low IQ” individual, accused Hillary Clinton of having “tremendous hate in her heart,” and insulted John McCain numerous times even after his death. But Jimmy Kimmel calling him out for celebrating a ballroom construction instead of consoling a grieving nation is, apparently, a touch too far for the president.
