Any objective person can hear this themselves. The segment I listened to you could hear the audience cheering, laughing and clapping more and more as it went on.

It was like New Kids on the Block performing at the Apollo. Started of rough but ended well, he certainly got some positive reaction as it went on.

Saying a person is a snowflake for simply pointing out Trump had a bad day, is ridiculous. It shows the same type of blind partisanship that we always attribute to the other side.
We?
You're a snowflake, woketard liberal. You see Trump is effective, and it's tearing you up inside.
So melt, bltch.

That is your opinion.
No it's not. His opinion is that Trump killed it. So he's trying to agitate Trump's base to talk about how 'bad' Trump did, so Trump will stop trying to win over blacks.
It's a simple game, and one anyone can play. And he's lucky it's simple, because he's simple.

I saw a lot of the interview and there was as much applause as there were jeers and a lot of laughter. The audience was much more accepting of Trump than I thought they would be. It was surprising.

I saw Cernovich made that point. He said the audience thought Trump was charming when you listen to it, but the words in print don't look great.

The most important thing about appearances like this is he is breaking the bubble. Talking to the choir on fox and news max won’t reach new voters he needs to add to the base. Most news is catered to their audience. He needs to let others hear what he has to say.
The audience and people listening in could hear the hostility in the first question and he handled it well. People respect strength and he was polite to those that were polite to him even with tough questions. You won’t change the mind of the most infected TDS sufferers, but you have to show others the lies in the narrative. If you don’t speak to these people they will never hear you.
After four years of sparse, scripted press contact, Trump’s willingness to talk to even hostile press should be obvious and welcome. Love him or hate him , he doesn’t hide in the basement.

I watched clips of the event and all I can say is wow, Trump as a big set for even putting himself on that stage, and he handled it with as much respect and grace as he could. The interviewer was lobbing nothing but loaded, race-baiting, gotcha questions. It seemed like a complete setup that once again backfired.

Harris Faulkner is great.

“She was always of Indian heritage. And she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black. And now she wants to be known as Black,” Trump said of Harris. “So I don’t know, is she Indian, or is she Black?”
He is painful to listen to. If he had to go there at least get beyond a 6th grade level of communication.
Bucky just can't contain his TDS. So sad. Trump broke you, bro.

Well, much of the audience in the video got a good laugh out of it. So there’s that.

Nice woman. Went to the same church as her in KC for a couple years.
She seems like a genuinely nice person.

You’re one of the last people I would have expected to come down with such a bad case of Madisonitis. I hope you get better soon.

Legitimate question - the article states that Harris is African-American but Jamaica is not in Africa and this would not indicate African heritage - that has to be an error, no?
Wouldn't the black people in Jamaica also have origins from Africa? I can't stand Kamala, but the whole she's not black because that half of her family is from Jamaica seems like kind of a pointless argument to make.

A billionaire with a sixth grade education. Not too bad.

That is not what Trump said. He said she claimed to be indian and now claims to be black. He said, he does not know which one she is, but he can respect both of them.
