"Days ago, filmmaker Michael Moore theorized that Trump’s run for the presidency was never serious, that in fact he was just trying to get a better contract for his reality TV shows The Apprentice and Celebrity Apprentice.
Quartz.com also pointed out that in June, Vanity Fair said that Trump was looking to start his own cable channel.
“According to people close to him, Trump hoped to leverage his millions of supporters into a loyal television audience, which, to him, might make the long slog of running for president actually worth it in the end,” wrote Quartz’s Adam Epstein.
In a tweet sent out just prior the publication of the Vanity Fair piece, Trump wrote, “The press is so totally biased that we have no choice but to take our tough but fair and smart message directly to the people!”
CNN’s Brian Stelter pointed out on Wednesday night that Trump now has everyone in place to launch a media company with the hiring of Breitbart.com editor Stephen Bannen, ousted Fox News chairman Roger Ailes and Republican operative and “dirty tricks” specialist Roger Stone."
