More analysis of the 60 Minutes interview...

Trump knew what was in the alleged shooter's manifesto. He told Norah O'Donnell that he had read it. But, he was surprised that she brought it up? What did he think? That the subject was taboo?

Then he attacked her and called her a disgrace for bringing up the subject of the manifesto. He told her that he had been totally exonerated on all rape and pedophilia charges.

Several questions remained. Why did he choose to go to this WHCD and had skipped all the rest? He made it public about a week before that he intended to attend. He was going to pretend to be a defender of the First Amendment?

We still do not know if the gunman fired shots or how many shots he fired? Why the secrecy? Who knows this guy? What do his friends say about him?

It may not have been staged but it sure raises a lot of questions.

He was going to excoriate the journalists. He allegedly preferred this approach to being roasted or to not attending.
