Hinderaker tries to soften Trump’s latest social media rant — which demands violations of our First Amendment (against CBS, by the FCC).
He tries to blunt the shockingly lawless demands by saying Trump was just “blowing off steam”.
See John — how this works is, he cannot blow off steam on a public platform to hundreds of thousands — by unlawfully threatening a broadcast network. He is the state… the “steam” must stay in his private conversations, at his club or bedroom.
So yes, he is very likely to lose his libel suit against all the networks. These are equitable matters — and his hands are clearly unclean.
And just like Harvard is correct to resist his lawless attempts to control the independence and standards of higher education, CBS will resist him.
And win.
Cheers, old man.
