It's in Farage's interest for the BBC to be shut down, so he's not going to come out to bat for them. I'm surprised he's not been more vocal about it all to be honest.

GBNews had a 1-to-1 interview with Trump, Goodwin was spewing his rhetoric this morning on BBC News.
Farage doesn't need to say anything and laying into the BBC may not be very popular if it leads to its collapse. He'll let his surrogates do the dirty work. At most, you'll get a ridiculous comment followed by the usual Faragian "these questions need to be raised" excuse that he's not actually asking the question.
The amount of time the BBC give to Refotm it is not really in Farage’s interest to shut it down, just to turn even more into a lap dog.It's in Farage's interest for the BBC to be shut down, so he's not going to come out to bat for them.

Not really, esp when you realize his base is the uneducated rural voter and the rich who are not touched by his politics and policies, except in positive ways.Yet a high percentage of Americans belive him. That's more scary.
As the recent elections have shown (I hope), the majority of even those Americans realize THIS is not what they voted for. TACO Trump flailing about, selling the Office for a few shekels here and there, tearing down the People’s House for a hardy ballroom where he can entertain more high rollers and Middle Eastern Heads of State to line his own pockets, etc, etc…

Couldn't watch more than a few seconds of that - crap like that just reinforces MAGA's belief that the whole world are looking up to him. She'll dine out on that for years, now - probably considered herself a hard-hitting journalist.
If I'm wrong, and if she was softening him up to strike later on in the interview, please let me know and I'll watch it.
Shameless.
His decision to supposedly go ahead with legal action confirms what a petty, vindictive individual he is.
I also wonder to what extent Farage is egging him on. I may have missed it but has Farage issued a statement on this situation and whether he thinks it's a step too far. My own view is that the BBC certainly has faults but it would be a terrible loss to the media world.
He's threatening to go ahead with legal action. That's not the same as actually doing it.

It's not difficult to construct a theory.
Trump watched pictures from 5 years ago which Fox played on the pretext of them being this year. Trump immediately believed that Portland was a warzone and he had to send in troops - after all Fox must be true.
Trump is shown pictures claiming white South African farmers are being assaulted, etc. Trump immediately believes it even though it's not from South Africa, because he wants to believe it and isn't bright enough to realise that he's being spoonfed, and immediately threatens sanctions against South Africa.
Fox show something about Nigeria, claiming that Christians are being wiped out. Trump immediately believes it and threatens action (which GI Pete enthusiastically agrees with and says they're looking into it), despite the fact that Boko Haram are basically killing anyone.
Fox will be offering up soft balls about how great GBNews is and not those evil commie BBC types. Trump will believe it and threaten immediate action against perceived enemies.
He's completely led by what he sees on Fox. His advisors know it, Fox know it, and the billionaires know it too.
I suspect that there are probably a couple of hundred other examples.

I couldn’t be arsed watching it for the same reasons as yourself.Couldn't watch more than a few seconds of that - crap like that just reinforces MAGA's belief that the whole world are looking up to him. She'll dine out on that for years, now - probably considered herself a hard-hitting journalist.

You are a liberal. You are upset, even furious, about Trump.
Therefore, they’ve “owned” you.
That’s all that really matters. That’s all they have and all they need.
Breaking News: BBC confirm an offer of £45m will be made to settle the Trump legal action. This will not be funded by tax payers money
In other news: This years Children in Need event has raised just over £45m
Quite ironically, giving the rapist orange fuck the Children In Need money, wouldn't be the worst the person they've given the Children In Need money to.
Fuck the BBC and fuck Trump.

Upset? That’s a 5/10 landing!This is precisely what many of them voted for.

Furious? That’s when I see other teams getting away with murder!
Trump? APOPLECTIC!
He really is the scum of the earth and to see him disgrace the country, undermine the citizenry, and treat “the poor and huddled masses” in the way he is/has is LITERALLY criminal!
Last week one of the many unnamed, unbadged, camouflage wearing street thugs rounding up innocents pulled his fucking gun on a protester who was SAYING SHIT HE DIDNT LIKE and then told her she was too close.
They’re rounding people up and not even telling you where they are taking them.
They recently took someone they shouldn’t have done, then dropped them off outside the facility after it was closed and the person had no idea where they were and no way to get help!
We are literally one (goose) step away at this point!

From the Independent:
President Donald Trump provided a bizarre update on his health Friday night, telling reporters on Air Force One a doctor praised him for an “outstanding” MRI, though he didn’t know what experts were examining with the procedure.
“I had an MRI,” Trump said of a recent headline-grabbing visit to Walter Reed Medical Center. “The doctor said it was the best result he has ever seen as a doctor...The result was outstanding.”
When asked if doctors scanned the president’s brain, he replied, “I have no idea what they analyzed, but whatever they analyzed, they analyzed it well and they said I had as good a result as they’ve ever seen.”

He doesn't know what an MRI is, does he?
