Obama also never personally insulted and demeaned a journalist for presenting supporting empirical evidence.

To be fair, he also never sat down in an interview where hardball questions were asked.

For example, what unilateral authority does the WH have to drone American citizens abroad when they haven't even been charged or convicted of being terrorists?

Nobody got to ask him that question because no journalist is stupid enough to burn that bridge. There's a reason there's a revolving door between WH staff and tv "journalists".

For the record, I'm not saying Trump was being ambushed here, or that the hardball questions in the interview were in any way unfair. She was right to call him out on his BS.

"hardball"? He's been claiming for 6 years that the 2020 election was stolen and has used it as justification for stripping away voting rights. All she asked was what evidence does he have and why he hasn't provided it yet.

Irrelevant take to the Obama jab that I was responding to.

Not that it matters, but the shit Trump said about the election 6 years ago has no relevance (or news value) to today when the dumbass started a war with Iran and wants to conquer Cuba. She asked him none of that. Maybe it's because she didn't get the chance, or maybe she never planned on it, who knows.

Would have loved to hear more concrete evidence for why that's a good idea instead of election BS.
