That was then, this is now (Updated)
/Last month, Trump was called a dictator because he (supposedly) forced the Disney Channel’s ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel’s show (it had nothing to do with the show losing $40 million a year).
Now, Democrats DEMAND that Trump force the Disney Channel to air Monday Night Football on You Tube
You might not be able to watch Monday Night Football tonight.

Why? When companies get too big, they have the power to cut off your favorite channels.
That's what's happening here.
And what's Trump done about it? He's let them get away with it. https://t.co/hnAOR6R1no
Good Lord, even Washington Post editors see the cheap politicking Fauxcahontas is engaged in:
The Washington Post editorial board pushed back on Warren's argument and wrote, "That is not, in fact, what’s happening here." The editorial was headlined, "Elizabeth Warren knows better."
YouTube TV said in a post on X on Oct. 30 that, despite its "best efforts," it was not able to reach a fair deal with Disney by Thursday's deadline, meaning customers would no longer be able to access Disney-owned channels and content, including college and pro sports.
One of the issues at the center of the dispute was the fees Disney sought from YouTube TV to carry its channels.
"This is not an area that would be improved by the involvement of the government. Yet Warren complained on social media that President Donald Trump has 'let them get away with it,'" the Post editors wrote. "Get away with what? YouTube TV is trying to keep costs down for its customers, while Disney is trying to get the most value for its products. Buyers want prices to be lower, and sellers want prices to be higher. Such is life."
The Washington Post argued that Warren was effectively taking Disney's side in the fight and added, "Why should the president or a senator weigh in on Disney’s side, which is the side of higher prices for consumers? It certainly doesn’t make life more affordable for anyone, except maybe Disney investors."
The editorial board concluded that Disney and Google could resolve the matter without government interference.
"Warren, a former Harvard Law School professor who made big money consulting for corporations before she refashioned herself as a pitchfork populist, knows all this. Maybe she just thinks her supporters are not as smart as her," the paper wrote.
