Obviously.
All the major networks covered this live. None of them covered the Harris rally that happened right after. Some did fact checking afterward. That’s after most people stop watching.
The reporters often asked useless softball questions, like asking him to comment about his upcoming interview with Musk.
When there was a serious question, he simply didn’t answer. There was one about abortion and he said he would answer later. There was one about whether an an abortion drug should be banned. He gave a rambling response that seemed to be about something else.
Compare this to a typical Biden press conference where the reporters are rude and yell out questions and push back and tell Biden that he isn’t answering the question.
The press is afraid of Trump and complicit with his criminal behavior and complicit in the ignorance of the voters.
He just wants to run the whole country again. You probably don’t need any reading comprehension or be able to take responsibility for your own actions for that job.
