MSNBC Declines to Air Trump's Announcement Speech Live

• By Cassandra Fairbanks

Trump spoke at 9 p.m. on November 15 from Mar-a-Lago.

Fox News aired most of the speech, but also cut away for analysis from Sean Hannity, Mike Huckabee, Pete Hegseth, Leo Terrell, and others.

"CNN also carried Trump's remarks live but cut away after about 20 minutes to offer analysis from a political panel and fact-checks of the various claims Trump made during his speech on issues ranging from energy to the results of the midterm elections," The Hill reports.

"MSNBC did not carry Trump's remarks live at all, instead opting to host a number of leading journalists to talk about the former president's expected announcement," the report continued.

On their website, MSNBC ran with the headline, "Trump's secret 2024 weapon? He's ready to burn it all down."

The opinion piece, disguised as news, stated, "Trump is already fomenting a bitter civil war in the Senate GOP caucus and may demand a Red Wedding in the House GOP caucus as well. This evening (with multiple possible indictments pending) he makes his presidential restoration campaign official."

"And there is not much the GOP can do about it. Republicans now know that they cannot win with Trump; but they also know that if he torches everything in sight, they can't win without him either," MSNBC continued. "They have trapped themselves in a political prison of their own making."

During his speech, Trump vowed to "Make America Great Again."
