Donald Trump Demands Netflix ‘Immediately Fire’ Board Member Susan Rice or ‘Pay the Consequences’: ‘She’s Got No Talent or Skills

Donald Trump posted on Truth Social on Saturday, asking Netflix to "immediately" fire Susan Rice, a former UN ambassador and board member, or "pay the consequences." His comments come as Netflix is trying to complete a deal to buy Warner Bros. Discovery's studios and streaming services for $83 billion.

Trump wrote, "Netflix should fire racist, Trump Deranged Susan Rice, IMMEDIATELY, or pay the consequences.

 She's got no talent or skills — purely a political hack! HER POWER IS GONE, AND WILL NEVER BE BACK. How much is she being paid, and for what???" He also thanked his followers for paying attention. President DJT.

Netflix did not immediately respond to Variety's request for comment.

Trump's anger is because of Rice's comments on Preet Bharara's podcast.

 During the interview, Rice said that if Democrats win the midterms, she expects an "accountability agenda" for companies that avoided rules under Trump's administration.

Rice said, "If these corporations think that the Democrats, when they come back in power, are going to, you know, play by the old rules, and, you know, say, 'Oh, never mind.

 We'll forgive you for all the people you fired, all the policies and principles you've violated, all, you know, the laws you've skirted.' I think they've got another thing coming."

In his Truth Social post, Trump shared a link to a post from far-right activist Laura Loomer, who wrote that Rice is "threatening half of the country with weaponized government political retribution.

" Loomer also predicted that if Netflix buys Warner Bros., "positive messaging of the Democrats' upcoming witch hunts against Trump from Barack Hussein Obama and his anti-White racist wife Michelle would likely be blasted across all streaming services."

Loomer added, "The Netflix-Warner Bros. merger would result in a streaming monopoly, which the Obamas will have a significant stake in.

 President Trump must kill the Netflix-Warner Bros. merger now."

In early February, Trump told NBC that he thought he "shouldn't be involved" with the Netflix-Warner Bros. deal, but he seems to have changed his mind.

Netflix has an agreement to buy Warner Bros. studios and HBO Max in a $83 billion deal.

 On Feb. 17, WBD opened a seven-day period for Paramount Skydance, which has been trying to take over, to make a final offer. On March 20, Warner Bros. Discovery shareholders will vote on the Netflix acquisition.
