President Trump's 2016 campaign was relentless in its depiction of an on-the-brink America awash in crime. Here's Trump in his shockingly dark inaugural address: Mothers and children trapped in poverty in our inner cities; rusted-out factories scattered like tombstones across the landscape of our nation; an education system, flush with cash, but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of knowledge; and the crime and gangs and drugs that have stolen too many lives and robbed our country of so much unrealized potential. This American carnage stops right here and stops right now.

    Without cameras on Hope Hicks' testimony, media outlets were left with only a transcript to analyze why she broke down in tears. "It's a mistake to say Hope Hicks cried because she knew she just ended Donald Trump's career," says Elie Honig, "or she cried because she had just collapsed on cross-examine.

    Despite Biden and Trump now saying they will debate, neither party has contacted the Commission on Presidential Debates, says co-chair Frank Fahrenkopf, and likely won't until after their Conventions.

    Crooks and Liars, Saturday - 05/04/2024 - 09:11 AM
