Pure listcruft and trivia, he has appeared on the news media many times, no forseeable use. - CHAMPION ( talk) ( contributions) ( logs) 02:12, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

Ramaksoud2000: If it is complete, the list will end, if it will never end, it will never be complete, your sentence contradicts itself. -

- Delete - This list, to be comprehensive, would have to be updated every single time Trump appears on TV - that's clearly a ridiculous thing to do - Wikipedia is not a News site, it's meant to be an encyclopaedia. A running tally of TV appearances is not appropriate here. Exemplo347 ( talk) 13:04, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

- Delete. As amused I am by the hatnote labelling The Apprentice as a sitcom, there is no conceivable reason why we would need to maintain a list to exhaustively and indiscriminately document every single time the POTUS-elect ever happened to appear on TV, reaching back to five or six (or more) years before he was even POTUS-elect. In theory, such a list could be compiled for absolutely every single person who has existed at all since the dawn of television broadcasting — but what's it's lacking is any real point.
