Trump Speechless After Reporter Asks If He Regrets Lying To Americans - The Last Word - MSNBC



Donald Trump was stunned when a reporter asked him if he regrets the thousands of lies he has told the American people since taking office. Maria Teresa Kumar, president of Voto Latino, says it shows Donald Trump is the “juxtaposition of what we deeply believe is honorable in our country,” and Princeton University professor Eddie Glaude says it was “an amazing moment for the fourth estate.”. Aired on 8/13/2020.

But I tuned in late - when they were talking about it. I was sorry I missed it, but then Lawrence said it was worth showing again, so they did. So I don't know why they didn't bother to include what all they were talking about in the video clip.

to avoid answering the question allows himself to be used for just that.

I'd love to see a reporter, called on after a non-answer like that, to say, "Could you answer the previous question?"

Used to be the press in this country had more of collective spine.

Corporate consolidation of the media has absolutely gutted American journalism.

Until he answered or just made an ass of himself and lost it or walked out. And they should persist in that every single time every time he appears. That would not only support that journalist, but could cut down on the "rallies" that Trump likes to have under the guise of some sort of "briefing."
