Donald Trump launched a nightly Facebook Live program on Monday, amid speculation that the Republican presidential nominee is plotting some sort of media channel should he lose the election Nov. 8.
Trump's campaign blasted out an e-mail to supporters shortly before 6:30 p.m. ET, alerting them about "Trump Tower Live," which the e-mail described as "nightly campaign coverage from Trump Tower."
