I'm thinking we should bring leeches back. Bleed the Covid out of people.
At this point, why doesn't Trump just interview himself? He doesn't want to answer anything but the easiest softball questions anyway.

I mean...CMONNNN. Are we all being trolled? There’s no way this is all real. Am I in a coma right now??
You have to look at the pics in the link, it’s hilarious.

Trying to impress her, Kayleigh McEnany hands Leslie Stahl a large book containing the Administration’s work on health care. I don’t think she expected Stahl to look at the book, because it’s blank.

It would be a lot more funny if hundreds of thousands of Americans haven't died because of his refusal to do anything BUT try to take health care away.

The blank book is real enough. It's the administration's "health care plan" that's completely make believe.

That might be one of the biggest own goals in the history of politics. Devastating and the perfect metaphor for GOP policies. That hasn’t hit the greater populace yet. I have a tough time believing it’s real also. But if it is.....damning.

To be fair, it's only the first couple of pages. I doubt that it's truly a blank book. There's no other pictures showing anything beyond that so I think this is probably nothing.

I agree. I don't believe that book is really blank. No one could be that stupid. Don't get me wrong. They are very stupid and I have no doubt that all those pages on stage to declare the divestiture were blank. But you don't hand someone a book and not expect them to at least leaf through it.
Heck, even ad agency folks are smart enough to throw in some Lorem ipsum text. Plus with mail-in voting already begun it would wrong for 60 minutes to keep this to themselves until Sunday evening. At the very least CBS should be promoting the interview with "Why did a Trump administration official hand Lesley Stahl a blank book that was purported to contain the administration's work on healthcare. Tune in Sunday night to find out."

Of course this is, what, the third time they have tried to pass off blank papers as actual documents? This is something aliens would do. Like their eye sight can't see the print on the paper so they think humans are just really impressed with paper itself.

Whitlock’s journey the last few years has been ... interesting.
And now he is working for professional troll Clay Travis.

Remember how the Mayan calendar showed that the world would end in 2012? How would you say things have gone since then?

I guess it says something when an 18-year Trump Org employee releases a book detailing racist statements made by our President and it hardly is a blip on the news cycle.

Stahl: You're OK with some tough questions?
Trump: No, I'm not.

The WH released the interview
I don't even know what's going on anymore. Why would they do that? It's not like it's a good look for him. They just want to get it out there ASAP so people can see it and forget about it?

It's all about crafting a narrative that the media is unfair, that he's a victim, and that everyone is out to get him.The WH released the interview

That would work if he didn't spend every waking moment antagonizing the media, or even people who dare disagree with him. Kinda hard to feel bad for him when he starts the fight pretty much every time.

..especially before tonight's debate. Tough questions OK? "No, they're not!" So everyone knows he'll be resisting all the questions tonight. Why draw attention to it?The WH released the interview

I ran for two different offices. I did some research on how to be a candidate. I learned to never, ever do a live interview without knowledge of the questions beforehand...especially before tonight's debate. Tough questions OK? "No, they're not!" So everyone knows he'll be resisting all the questions tonight. Why draw attention to it?
Trump barely prepares and usually wings it. When he doesn't, Trump comes off as an automaton.
I have no idea how Trump will react with a cut mic.

I wonder if Trump changed it back to "yourefired".

agree. As long as it’s stated up front. “I’m going to interview you, and I’m going to ask these questions. I’d you dont answer the question, I’ll end it”. seems simple enough.

The 60 Minutes interview was painful to watch. Trump gave nothing but a poo-poo platter of lies and obfuscation. He couldn't answer Lesley Stahl straight on any single question, just blathering and whining.
Kudos to her, though. She kept asking him about his "beautiful health plan" that he has had four years to come up with, and has produced zilch.

It's Pence that really drives me crazy. He gives that look of sincerity as he dodges every. single. question.
Kamala, though, should have just answered the question about her being a liberal by owning up to it. "Yes, my leanings are liberal, based on my background. But we have a diverse party. We'll work together as a party to find common ground that, in the end, benefits all Americans." Why would that be so hard?
I think she's just laughing at the campaign the Republicans are trying to run. Blue skies are coming again.

Excellent read that does not favors to Hunter BIden but MASSIVELY exposes the hypocrisy from the Right in regards to the similarities between the grown children of both families.
