Donald Trump: ESPN is Paying Price for Its Politics, Should "Apologize for Untruth"

President Donald Trump addressed the Jemele Hill controversy this morning via his favorite medium. He channeled his best Clay Travis in a 140-character salvo.
ESPN is paying a really big price for its politics (and bad programming). People are dumping it in RECORD numbers. Apologize for untruth!

The Big Lead has reached out to ESPN for a reaction to Trump’s claims.
On Wednesday, White House press secretary said Hill’s comments — which included referring to Trump as a “white supremacist” — constituted a fireable offense. Hours later, Hill apologized for the trouble she’d brought her employer after co-hosting SC6.
