Trump calls for removal of Susan Rice as streaming platform pursues takeover of Warner Bros Discovery
Donald Trump has told Netflix to remove the Democratic foreign policy expert Susan Rice from its board or “face the consequences”, while the streaming platform is locked in an extraordinary corporate battle to take control of Warner Bros Discovery (WBD).
In comments posted on his Truth Social platform, the US president described Rice – who served as national security adviser to Barack Obama and UN ambassador and White House adviser under Joe Biden – as a “political hack” and accused her of having “no talent or skills”.
Trump’s comments herald a fresh intervention in the takeover battle between Netflix and Paramount Skydance for the studios and streaming businesses of WBD only weeks after promising not to get involved.
Not even Just that, it states that if you give “aid or comfort” to insurrectionists or “rebels” you are barred from holding office. When he was campaigning he promised to pardon the insurrectionists, that was giving them “comfort”. When he “won” he followed through on that promise, that was giving “aid”. According to the US Constitution and federal law, he is ineligible to be president right now. There are other laws he broke that also barred him from being reelected, well before the campaigning started, that he was never charged with violating, that aren’t hard to prove.
