I wouldn't be surprised. He caught them red-handed manipulating POTUS' words to suit a political agenda just ahead of an election. I would almost bet they do end up pulling it down, or they may end up in trouble.

Who cares, no one’s watching it anyway.

I do. I think he's got them in a bind here and no matter what they do, they will have just discredited the entirety of the media with what they've just done.

They may go easy on the edits after Trump released today.

He turned a hit piece on him into a hit piece on media bias.

I doubt it. Who is going to hold 60 Minutes accountable? The Media?

What did you watch? All I saw was Trump whining about getting tough questions.

It'll be interesting to see how it plays out. Either way, I guarantee there are high level meetings going on regarding this decision right now. People are shitting their pants over it. I think it'll just come down to whichever decision does the lesser amount of damage. Damage is done either way. Major damage.

I wish 60 Minutes would sue Trump. That would be the gateway to some interesting litigation. Litigationgate they'd call it.

It's funny watching members of Team Pedo say stuff like this when their Brain Dead candidate can't even put together a coherent sentence, then gets mad when he can't answer simple questions.

I bet you can't walk and chew gum at the same time.

He should have let them air it first and then post his raw footage. Now they've got time to save face.

I imagine Trump wishes they would too. Which is why I bet they'll instead bitch and moan, threaten litigation, and pull down the interviews citing an ongoing legal battle as the justification for doing so.

This way they keep hold of their base. If they air it, Trump is proven right in the eyes of their viewers. They'll lose a lot of votes over it, and that's what they covet most.

They may even be able to spin up a portion of their base even more over it.

"He cheated us out of our money by airing the interview early! He's a crook!"

The delusional among them will eat that up, but they won't fully expose their lies to the rest of the base.

I bet they pull them down.

They will heavily edit the interview and run it as a savage hit piece, as if the Trump team never dropped the raw footage. The media will simply pretend it never happened.

Mark it down.
