President Donald Trump tweeted today that he will give a national address on the situation on our southern border. He will travel to the area on Thursday.
After hours of "will they, won't they" coverage, the broadcast networks and cable news networks decided they will broadcast Trump on Tuesday night. Only CBS confirmed the broadcast by Monday evening.
However, their decision led to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) to demand equal airtime.
