In Blistering On-Air Rant, Shep Smith Savages NBC for Suddenly Welcoming Trump Back to Network

Fox News host Shepard Smith heavily skewered NBC Tuesday for suddenly welcoming Donald Trump back to the network after announcing months ago it would sever its ties with the real estate tycoon for his controversial comments about Mexicans.

Smith's on-air rant came after NBC announced Trump would guest host "Saturday Night Live" on November 7.

“NBC and everything Comcast did not want to be associated with Donald Trump left all the money on the table, no more! No more! We'll have a fight about the 'Miss America Contest!' No more Trump on NBC! It's what he said! So what’s he doing? He’s going back to NBC! Good job! Nice job, NBC," Smith sarcastically said.

“You made a stand! You stood for your values! You did what you must! Forget the money! No more Trump! Except — more Trump,” he added.

"You did a great job! We’re all proud of you, NBC. We’ll be watching."
