There was not a single carrier on the airwaves in Tampa to carry True President Trumps address. We use the rooftop antenna.
Had to go online.
If this had been Obama it would have pre-empted everything on the air.
So zero coverage on ABC,NBC,CBS, and FOX network channels.

Real America's Voice, full coverage. Who goes to Fox News (unless for Tucker Carlson)?

I watched it, should have kept it to 30-40 minutes. Other than that, it was good but I can see why people checked out.

That’s what Bill O’Reilly said.

That the first part maybe up to a half hour was good and the rest was rambling. Also that Trump said it was only going to be so long, but he kept going much longer.

I don’t watch these things. Not much interested In Speeches and just need the gist of it.

It does seem quiet regarding his announcement since it aired. I kind of wish he’d have held off a while.

What did you expect? All of the Press outlets hate him.

They will do everything in their power to defeat him, including trying to deny him air time.

And yet, even in that, they were defeated.

12.5 million of us watched it.

The MSM cannot control Trump...so they want to murder him.

Very, very bad people.

What about all the people who watched live online? Real America’s voice and right side broadcasting for instance.

I’m painfully aware of the press’s attitude toward him, and knew it would be an excuse for revving up their attacks. I simply expected more public support. Other than Kari Lake, I don’t think many notables have joined in. I hoped there would be more high profilers at his announcement and then them speaking up afterwards.

Hard to believe people have to be told this. I often wonder what the motive is behind many of these comments.

Where did you expect that "public support" to come from, the Media?

Your "public support" is right there in that 12.5 million people watching him even though the so-called "main stream media" tried to censure him.

We’ll have to see how many viewers translate into supporters. It is early. I wish him well.

I heard that Hannity cut it off. I watched the whole thing on Real America’s Voice. I tried Frank Speech, but I kept getting buffering issues.

In some ways, I would have liked to see it at one of the giant venues where the crowd could go nuts.

“I watched the whole thing on Real America’s Voice. I tried Frank Speech, but I kept getting buffering issues.”

Exactly what we did. If Frank Speech is to become a serious media option, Lindell needs to step up his game and go 100% professional with it.

I used to watch Bannon’s 6pm hour on the smart tv Frank Speech. It came in about half the time. Now, not at all, so I use the PC and I hate watching stuff on my PC.
