Reports: Trump campaign explored post-election TV operation

Campaign officials for Donald Trump have been exploring the process of launching a new television network if his White House bid goes south, according to multiple reports that follow the Republican presidential hopeful’s repeated denial that he has any interest in operating his own media venture.

Jared Kushner, who is married to Trump’s eldest daughter Ivanka and has counseled the GOP nominee throughout his presidential campaign, met with investment banker Aryeh Bourkoff to discuss the possibility of a television channel that would target the GOP nominee’s core supporters, the Financial Times reported on Monday.
