One remark from one woman overhauled the energy at last night's Trump town hall
By Jay Valentine
If there were ever a time when a tide changed direction in a single political moment, it was at the Trump set-up with Savannah Guthrie.
For about 45 minutes Guthrie just jumped all over The Donald for every response he made to her or to a questioner.
The first 15 minutes or more were nothing but cross-exams by Guthrie about masks, as if that were the most important question to ask the leader of the free world in the 60 minutes you have him in your arena, in your control.
Every person asking a question was described as a Biden-leaner, former Trump whatever. None of the questions was in the ballpark of "Mr. President, you built the world's best economy; how are you going to do it again?"
Even when a question was not entirely confrontational, Guthrie made the follow-up comment quite in-your-face.
Trump, much to anyone's surprise did not flinch. He never got angry, never called out this ridiculous one-sided hit job. Any other politician would have wilted, acquiesced, or walked out.
