They can ask all they like. Did he stop them?
Prove that I have answered? The fact you cannot remember is telling.

Exactly.
When magats would cry about free speech and calls for cancelling by the left, they meant Social Media sites enforcing their TOS in the same way this site will, if someone breaks the rules. You know, something that has nothing to do with actual free speech.
What the magats DID NOT mean was heads of government calling for cancelling or to get rid of REAL free speech.
Sheesh. I agree with Yakuda here that anyone who took magats seriously needs to get a 'and?' , as if magats would care about hypocrisy.

Apparently you haven't looked in the mirror.
HE was suggesting the Federal Government should punish her employer.

Trump has repeatedly called on the FCC to revoke the station licenses of ABC and Comcast-owned NBC (CMCSA.O), opens new tab and charge them for using the public airwaves.
The FCC, an independent federal agency, issues eight-year licenses to individual broadcast stations, not networks. The FCC can revoke a license under a rarely used public interest standard but it has not done so for more than four decades.

Trump calls for ABC broadcast licenses to be revoked after reporter's question
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that broadcasting licenses used by affiliates of Walt Disney's ABC should be "taken away" after he disagreed with a question posed by a reporter for the network.

Not yet, but the head of the Executive Branch is calling for it. Wonder how much of a chilling effect that has on ABC.

Again so what? I don't give a shit what kind of effect it has? But then again trump farting sends you into an emotional tailspin
He's not wrong.
ABC does not "serve the public trust" with their lies, conspiracy theories, and slander. A 3 to 6 month suspension of their license is full warranted after they attempted to sabotage negotiations with a foreign state.
They have a right to report anything they like - but do NOT have a right to a public broadcast license. Let them spew their shit on a YouTube channel.
So says a fascist.^^
The behavior of ABC was reprehensible. Unthinkable for any real journalist. One doesn't start spewing unrelated slander when asking questions about negotiations with Saudi Arabia.
The license is supposedly a "public trust," which ABC broke. A suspension of their license for a period of time is fully warranted.
Asking a question?!
Well, you're not decent, Trumpette.
And it could be worse, he could use the FBI to silence dissent the way the Biden Cartel did.
