President Trump continued his assault on the “fake news media” on Wednesday – suggesting it is time to challenge the networks’ broadcast licenses.

“With all of the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for country!” he tweeted.

His missive came shortly after he vehemently denied an NBC News report that he asked to dramatically expand the US nuclear arsenal.

“Fake @NBCNews made up a story that I wanted a “tenfold” increase in our U.S. nuclear arsenal. Pure fiction, made up to demean. NBC = CNN!” he tweeted.

The network reported on Wednesday that Trump told his national security team that he wanted a tenfold increase in the arsenal – a request that left military officials flabbergasted.

The request also led Secretary of State Rex Tillerson to brand the president a “moron.”

In July, Trump said he wanted to expand the nation’s nuclear capabilities after seeing data showing the stockpile dwindling over the past 50 years, according to the report.
