I took my eyes off the news long enough to cook dinner.

Sausage, mash, gravy, if you must know.

Maybe he's hoping to grift some new people with the suspense... "I wonder what he will say!!!" Like he's said anything new in a year.

TFG was not going to get live TV coverage

Link to tweet

On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump announced he was pulling the plug on a press conference he was scheduled to give on the first anniversary of the January 6 Capitol insurrection, not even a week after formally announcing it would be taking place.

According to Maggie Haberman of The New York Times, one of the reasons for the cancelation is that Trump's advisors and associates privately told him that the press conference would be a mistake — and that he would probably not get his event covered live, something that he reveled in throughout his TV career and as president.
