“I don’t know who he is” - this answer should be immediately disqualifying for a president who just gave out a pardon. They should have asked about 50 follow-up questions just based on his incompetence at pardoning people just because Biden’s justice dept found them guilty.

He sued them for editing the interview with Harris but he would also sue them for showing the parts of his interview that make him look bad
Didn't he just sue 60 minutes for editing the interview with Harris?
Don't forget Fox News edited his interview on the release of the Epstein files.
Yeah that’s why u thought it was super weird he would go on the show.
But I guess CBS and ABC are now Trump propaganda outlets.
As soon as Larry Ellison's check cleared.
This isn't an interview in the traditional sense. It's a demonstration of fealty.

The fucking media are such pussies.
I wish news outlets were run by journalists who burn with a passion to be the one who breaks the story that turns the whole world upside down, and not money grubbing billionaire parasites.
Shocked, yes shocked I am to find that journalism is taking a knee to fascism in this corporate establishment.
Trump was always a weakling when faced with the slightest scrutiny. It is impossible to overstate the importance of The Apprentice in giving him that image of being a decent businessman... while on the show he would act against the script/guidance (I don't know what they are called in reality shows) and always throw the writers in a tizzy as they would rework everything to make him and his decisions seem like a good thing against all facts. Fox News basically is trying to do that with his real decisions, but they can't shield people from the actual reality of his actions.
Every single institution that was supposed to protect the US, without exception, failed miserably in the name of profit seeking.
Totally not alarming. A good solid blue vote in the midterms in just 12 short months away will fix that (once Johnson figures out how to also swear in the non GOP congress people)
A blue wave is not coming. Go look at projections for 2026.
No taxation without representation.
If the speaker is preventing my elected official from representing me, then I shouldn't have to pay a fucking cent until they are seated.
Good luck withholding taxes.
It's worked in the past.
Not sure how it works in USA but can’t you elect to not have your employer withhold your taxes for you and then have to pay your annual tax in a lump sum at the end of the fiscal year? That’s part of standard HR taxation forms here in Australia and some people do it in order to invest what they would otherwise be paying in taxes then divest at tax time, pay their tax, and hold onto the capital gains from their investment that they’d otherwise not have had access to. Sure they pay capital gains tax on that but it’s still a net windfall if their investments accrue.

you can. they will get add penalties and interest to your tax bill if you owe too much at the end of the year, though, even if you did pay-in every check or every quarter but just not enough.
Yup. The admin knows that a blue wave is an existential threat to corruption. They have no interest in allowing a free and fair election. Every fight to protect democracy is now critical, from here until Nov 2026.
Every month, they've committed further abominations against law and process. 12 more to go.

Okay, tap the breaks. Democrats are a lot of things. But they've never been a barrier to corruption. You just have to be willing to cut them in.
We lost the fight in 2024. Try to remember to turn off the lights if you're the last one out.
Go look at projections for 2026.
I mean, I've seen pollsters all over the map. But I also saw "Blue Wave in 2024/2016" and "Red Wave in 2020/2018". Who are you looking at and why do you trust them more than that lady who said Harris would win Iowa by 5 points?
Historically, newly elected Presidents eat shit in the midterm. Bush Jr was a singular exception, riding a huge reactionary wave through 2002. And he had 90% approval ratings at his peak. I'd be curious to know what you think Trump is working with that cements his very narrow House and Senate margins against a bunch of angry "Throw The Bums Out" voters (many within his own party).
2026 midterms will be the test run for the fixed elections in 2028.
Will fix what? At best it's a patch until some other state actor rips it off.
And here we have it folks, the reason we are where we are right now
Because I recognize that presidential power has only ever expanded in the last 75 years and nothing has curtailed it? I didn't say no temp fix will happen, but it'll likely be similar to the effect Obama or Biden has had: still expanding presidential power, just at a slowed pace.
We are here because Democrats keep trying to be centrists instead of a left movement and that keeps power squarely in Republicans hands, not because I recognize what Democrats haven't done.
Is the unedited version leaked and archived anywhere?
"I don't know who he is," Trump cut in, but, “I know he got a four-month sentence or something like that, and I heard it was a Biden witch hunt.”
lol, can't even pick one line of bullshit and stick with it
The big networks have all fallen. They are no longer the 4th branch. They are just spineless clowns.
This guy loses his cool eating a bowl of cereal. He can't go five minutes without fuming over rainbows or something. That ape is not well by any metric.
Widdle baby had a temper tantrum? Did widdle baby need a nappy change? A nap for sundowning mushbrain!
This shit needs to be put on the air. Grow a spine, news media. Do your fucking job.
