MS NOW/Psaki showed about 10 minutes of trump's rant and then cut away

I was able to fast forward to the point when Psaki’s cut trump off. I do not agree with showing any of trump’s speech but understand why MS NOW/Psaki did this.

trump is evidently lying and accusing his own intelligence of lying to him. trump cannot deal with reality.

is a bigger fuck-you than not showing any of it. It's like, OK, we gave it a fair chance but it sucks hard enough to bend light, so we're not going to bother with the rest of it.

6. Mark Warner and Jen talked about it and it was excellent. They are on break now but will talk more after the break.

They are doing fact checking and rebuttals. Other experts on now. Making it clear that they were cherry picking and creating a narrative.

except in front of a tuned out national audience. Maybe someone could get the visuals and do so translating for the Germans- or us.
