UPDATE 3/28/21: Word is that conservatives (aka freedom-loving Americans as opposed to advocates of Marxist Master Planning) may have an alternative media network in which to communicate, courtesy of one Donald J. Trump and some deep-pocket conservative allies. What brighter hope and more effective weapon can there be than a TrumpMedia conglomerate to fight back the Prog/Woke monster currently spreading its razor tentacles over the land as fast as it can?
Such a development is the green grass of life growing through the lifeless concrete of totalitarian government. A real, truth-telling news media network buttressed by tens of millions of personal blogs and business websites will only add welcome numbers to a battle already engaged in by fearless individual Americans who refuse to accept the death sentences arbitrarily imposed upon them by Little Tyrant Blue State governors and mayors.
UPDATE 2/28/21: Trump is clearly worth more as a civilian building an alternative Media Network: real news reportage, free speech gone viral on platforms hosting millions of social media, business and personal websites. This is the green grass growing through cracks through the cement the Left is pouring over America.
ORIGINAL POST 1/31/21: Just imagine. A massive media network offering truly diverse reportage on national and world politics, economics, science and culture. Not to mention, the technology to offer media platforms for privately owned websites all protected by the First Amendment. Looks and sounds like a free market of ideas, does it not? Most of all, it feels like America.
We are currently faced with the Dark Winter of shared mass misery as was obvious back in April when I contemplated the options of a continued Trump Presidency…or this:
This is the reality of the Left’s ruthless will to destroy all things great and exceptional about America and Americans. Freedom and the flowering of the individual spirt is THE object of homicidal hatred by those who live only to control. One can be certain of how eagerly they wish to carry this out. How far and strongly are we willing to fight? Who doesn’t face Patrick Henry’s choice, Liberty or Death, with more than a little trepidation? What ultimately matters? Those of us painfully conscious of what we stand to lose are not going to go down easily. Try as they might, they don’t control everything without our cooperation, most of all the power of free speech and communication.
Which brings us around again to the wonderful possibility of an alternate mass media network. Stay tuned, metaphorically and literally. We can dream, can’t we? Better. We can and do live as we choose.
The entire world depends upon the United States of America to be a beacon of freedom. Without freedom of speech there is no freedom. Without a free press there is no free speech. Without free speech and a free press there are no free and fair elections. Without free and fair elections the United States of America ceases to exist as a republic, and the beacon of freedom is extinguished. Trump TV would be one small step for man, and one giant leap for mankind.
Agreed. A very hopeful prospect. Let’s plan on it!
In a former article, I envisioned a Trump media that garnered 80 million paying subscribers overnight. That could still happen, although I expect the count would be much higher, specifically from the over-100-million voter that Sidney Powell says cast their votes for Trump on November 3rd.
Best….

I too foresee the response to be astonishing…a burst of enthusiasm nationwide dwarfing a million MAGA rallies.
Very well written, Fred. Captures everything in a nutshell.
Well, I figure by opening his ex-prez office, Trump has some great ideas. Just pray they’ll work – we are dealing with pure evil and half the nation hasn’t a clue! Art
