Former Trump advisor warns Disney CEO Bob Iger that Donald will take revenge for the ABC debate

A former adviser to former President Donald Trump predicts the candidate will be in trouble if he wins the election, speaking to ABC News.

Consultant Sam Nunberg made the claims in a podcast this week, specifically citing Disney CEO Bob Iger. Disney is the parent company of ABC, which oversaw and broadcast the presidential debate earlier this month.

Nunberg, in turn, criticized moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for their actions, calling it biased.

He called their exhibit “absolutely disgusting” and said teachers “should show this in every journalism school” to show “what not to do.”

He added that Iger and company are “f**ked” in the event of a Trump victory, and claimed his old boss could seek revenge. The comments come after Trump repeatedly decried the debate as a “rigged deal” – after being ruthlessly fact-checked.

“I wouldn’t want to be Disney,” Nunberg told Tara Palmeri on her podcast with the news organization Puck. “Disney is f**ked after that debate… They’re absolutely f**ked.

“And Bob Iger will really have a lot to say if Trump becomes president,” he continued,

‘Bob Iger will have a lot to explain to shareholders about how he grew the stock. [David] Muir and That Other Person – Linsey Davis – Muir and Davis’

‘[Their performance] was downright disgusting.’

Palmeri, playing devil’s advocate, then insisted that the two journalists had every right to challenge Trump, repeatedly checking his facts after making unsubstantiated claims in previous debates.

“They called him out, when in fact he was lying,” she said — to which Nunberg replied in the negative.

“Why didn’t they call her?” he asked, referring to Harris.

“She’s a liar too.”

Nunberg, in turn, criticized moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for their actions, calling it biased.

He also claimed that the different treatment showed “why America hates the media,” before referencing Trump’s past attacks on Disney and the company’s feud with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

These examples, he said, show that something may be wrong with the country’s mainstream media system, some eight years after he was named as a political adviser to Trump’s 2016 campaign.

That effort, against all odds, proved successful, but it also led to him being subpoenaed by a grand jury to testify and produce documents about allegations that Trump associates used their connections to Russian officials to influence the election.

During the subsequent investigation, when asked whether he believed the special prosecutor had incriminating evidence against his old boss, Nunberg said: “

“I think he did something during the election,” he added.

“But I’m not sure.”

Nunberg, who was not charged with a crime, added: “Donald Trump won this election on his own. He campaigned like crazy. And there’s nobody who hates him more than I do.”

The consultant’s comments come after Trump repeatedly branded the debate a “rigged deal” after being ruthlessly fact-checked.

Nunberg, along with his self-proclaimed mentor Roger Stone, helped Trump prepare for his first debate, the now infamous Republican debate that took place on August 6, 2015.

He left the campaign a few days later, citing ongoing tensions with campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.

In March 2016, he endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for president, saying Trump had “no coherent political ideology.”

Nunberg conceded that Trump had lost this time and concluded the podcast by telling Palmeri why he had failed.

“He lost for two reasons,” he said.

“One, he had an off night, he just had an off night. He was tired, whatever it was.”

Trump said last week that he regretted not attacking moderators more forcefully during the Sept. 15 event, and has vowed not to debate Vice President Harris again because of it.
