   Now that’s the type of man that I want to run this country. If CNN does nothing about Trump’s letter, on behalf of our Vets, then God help them. When people say that Trump is only bombastic , they have not seen the velvet side of this smooth operator. He knows how to put the arm on these corporation in all the right ways.

   Mr. Jeff Zucker will not give a dime to the Veterans and the Donald knows this.
   His net worth is only $40 million.
   Timewarner, Inc. which owns CNN just closed out on NTSE Dn $1.57,(2.19%) @$70.11. Jeffery Bewkes will and cannot let this happen. He would have to answer to the shareholders.

   Back on June 14, 2014, Time Warner Chairman and CEO Jeff L.Bewkes was blasted for CNN’s left-wing bias at Time Warner’s annual shareholders meeting,https://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2014/06/14/time-warner-ceo-blasted-for-cnns-bias-at-shareholders-meeting/

   I suspect the letter from Donald Trump has been forwarded to Jeff Bewkes for him to decided what he should do. Donald Trump sent it to Zucker only because he is the CEO for CNN, rather then going over Zuckers head to straight to Bewkes. More publicity that way, it was a smart move.
