News Nation is the New Trump TV

NewsNation was still carrying Donald Trump’s speech live even after Fox News broke away from his rambling announcement.

Over at the Nexstar cable outlet, Chris Cuomo then sought analysis from his political panel, which included ultra-conservative radio talk show host Bill Cunningham, disgraced former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich (whose prison sentence Trump commuted) and Barack Obama’s onetime press advance person, Johanna Maska.

Cunningham rolled through his usual tropes of Hunter Biden’s laptop and China’s control of President Biden and was even allowed to get in his signature, albeit tired, “Barack Hussein Obama” mentions.

If he’s the best Cuomo’s bookers can get — that ain’t saying much about News Nation or their “star” Chris Cuomo.
