(113,131 posts)50. You are correct, but we all know the script will be like this
and delivered by someone who is carefully coiffed with a cheesy capped teeth smile:
(To VP Harris) Kamala, solve the Middle East crisis. You have one minute.
(To TFG) Oh, SIR, who has been bringing you your Diet Coke since you've been away from the Oval Offic? Take all the time you need!"
OK, Maybe not quite that blatant but the lack of respect for Harris and the fawning over TFG will be obvious.

I too see it as a test as to whether they can ask serious questions not just gotcha ones.

CNN is not worth my time. It long ago transformed from news to angertainment with yelling fools.

You're absolutely right EarlG, which is why I despise our so called "traditional media". It's another reason I think...
