"The interview had a number of moments where Stern riffed on Trump, including the former president's absence from Monday's 60 Minutes election special.

"It just says so much," Stern said.

"He didn't want to be fact checked. This is madness. This is insanity. What do you mean, you don't want to be fact-checked?"

;

Stern also asked Harris about the new revelations from Bob Woodward's upcoming book, War. According to The Washington Post, Woodward writes that during the early days of Covid, Trump was sending Covid tests to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Putin told Trump, "Don't let anyone know."

"People in America were struggling to get tests and this guy is sending them to Russia, to a murderous dictator for his personal use?" Harris said.

"That is just the most recent stark example of who Trump is," she continued, "that he secretly sent Covid test kits for the personal use of Putin of Russia, an adversary to the United States, when he was talking about Americans should be putting bleach in their blood. Think about what this is."

She said that Trump "has this desire to be a dictator," and the world'd dictators are "manipulating him with flattery and favor."

;

Harris also appeared to be goading Trump at one point, when she made the case that it was the former president who is the weak one in the race.

"Ultimately, I do believe that this is an election that is about strength versus weakness, and weakness as projected by someone who puts himself in front of the American people and does not have the strength to stand in defense of their needs, their dreams, their desires," she said."

OK, I have to say, a couple three days ago I saw reports that VP Harris was making a media tour.

I saw visits to various sites (one called something like ~Call Her Daddy~ or whatever).

I thought, OK, VP Harris is playing sympathetic media.

Then I also saw here appearances with Mr Stern and 60 Minutes.

And i thought, OK, she's taking the deep dive now in her media appearances.

I mean, you don't f**k with Howard Stern or his audience.

Then there was also that 60 Minutes visit. A interview that fmr Pres Trump did not appear to have the ------- contents to do.

Yeah, I did.

He was on the local WNBC back in the day.

He's a radio shock jock, going for headlines.

Which is why I was surprised about the VP Harris interview.

Fmr Pres Trump having interviews with suck-up media does not show, by any means, that he has contents in his -------.

That's why I commented about VP Harris sitting down with 60 Minutes.

An interview that fmr Pres Trump seems to be afraid to have.

CBS News says Trump campaign had shifting explanations' for why he snubbed '60 Minutes'
apnews.com

... CBS News said the Trump campaign offered "shifting explanations" for why it backed out of a "60 Minutes" interview special with presidential candidates that aired without him.

The network's Scott Pelley appeared on the air Monday night to explain why Republican Donald Trump did not appear on what has become a "60 Minutes" tradition: back-to-back interviews with presidential candidates in the last month of the campaign.

Harris was on the show, interviewed by Bill Whitaker. Where Trump was supposed to appear, "60 Minutes" instead aired a story about an Arizona official pushing false claims about election fraud.

Pelley said that the Trump campaign "complained that we would fact-check the interview. We fact-check every story."

The Trump team also demanded an apology for his interview during the 2020 campaign, where he claimed that correspondent Lesley Stahl said a laptop computer belonging to President Joe Biden's son Hunter came from Russia. "She never said that," Pelley said.

Pelley said that Trump's team had agreed to an interview at the former president's Mar-a-Lago home, with an additional talk in Butler, Pennsylvania, where he returned to the scene of a July assassination attempt. ...

Not apropos, but a fav tune for me that just popped up on a playlist here ...

Lucinda Williams - The Night's Too Long
www.youtube.com

Lyrics excerpt...

genius.com

...
[Verse 1]
Sylvia was workin' as a waitress in Beaumont
She said "I'm movin' away
I'm gonna get what I want
I'm tired of these small town boys
They don't move fast enough
I'm gonna find me one who wears a leather jacket
And likes his livin' rough"

[Verse 2]
So she saved her tips and overtime
And bought an old rusty car
She sold most everything she had
To make a brand new start
She said, "I won't be needin' these
Silly dresses and nylon hose
'Cause when I get to where I'm goin'
I'm gonna buy me all new clothes" ...

Howard Stern got donOLD to creep out on Ivanka on air. He knew how easily donOLD could be manipulated into being a prevert and did so.

"What was particularly striking, reported the Post, is that Trump grew more and more dishonest as his term progressed.

"Trump averaged about six [false] claims a day in his first year as president, 16 claims day in his second year, 22 claims day in this third year " and 39 claims a day in his final year," the Post wrote at the time.

"Put another way, it took him 27 months to reach 10,000 claims and an additional 14 months to reach 20,000. He then exceeded the 30,000 mark less than five months later."

So sad and pathetic that two devastating calamities are facing America and all the do nothing and days late
Democrats like Biden and Kamala can lie and talk about is Donald Trump.

They also take and use OUR FEMA taxes to enrich and make uninvited and unvetted illegal immigrants comfortable while citizen victims must beg. Kamala is such a phony pretender and actress that has no clue about anything.

Idiot says what?

The Shelter and Services Program (SSP) is funded through U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and administered by FEMA, AS DIRECTED BY CONGRESS [EM] in the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023.

SSP provides financial support to non-federal entities to provide sheltering and related activities to noncitizen migrants following their release from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The intent is to support CBP in the safe, orderly and humane release of noncitizen migrants from short-term holding facilities. In Fiscal Year 2024, Congress appropriated CBP $650,000,000 for the SSP Program.

Including Steve Scalise, the House Majority leader who absolutely knows the truth he intentionally ignores.

There is no honesty or decency within the entire GOP congressional contingent but for the few brave souls who've spoken out about the flood of disinformation harming their own constituencies trying to recover from Helene's devastation - while never mentioning the majority of it emanates from Trump's own mouth straight into Robson's ignorant fingers.

Astute critical thinking Americans are well aware that reporting misinformation and freedom of speech is always a right and patriotic thing regardless of politics. We need to encourage whistle blowing as we no longer have an unbiased news media that works for truth first instead of politics. Truth first always!

now is a ----- hat wearing / tampon dispenser full out "whipped" sycophant.

------on a similar but different story..........Emhoff accused of sexual harassment in the work place.
accused in story by same reporter who broke the nanny is knocked up story.........a true and factual story as we know today.
male only cocktail hour / removed perks from women who didn't flirt with him
hired an unqualified secretary with him by the name of Katya.....( sounds Russian doesn't she ) ...and hired her becauae she was young / sexy
and "friendly " with the powerful men in the office.

one is a washed up ----- looking for attention and the other wants to be the '1st gentlemen"........IRONY personified.

many sources are anonymous and we know how those people lie about trump....but there are pictures of Katya.

you're a parody.....a joke....and very few of you deserve to be taken seriously.

DJT declared the winner by 11 EST.

You continue to post this nonsensical, totally ignorant comment in almost all of your posts. It's actually impossible for Trump to be announced the winner on election night because Republicans have made sure that the returns in Pennsylvania can't be tabulated by then, and in no scenario can Trump win the EC without Pennsylvania.

The fix comes down to pre-canvassing, the obscure but necessary process that allows election workers to verify the outside envelope of mail-in and absentee ballots before an election. In Pennsylvania, unlike many other states, officials are not allowed to begin that process until 7 a.m. on Election Day. In a state which, since 2019, has had expansive mail-in voting it's a recipe for long delays and a prolonged lack of clarity around the result.

Experts, politicians and local voting officials agree on the solution to this: Other states give poll workers more time - weeks, in some cases - to pre-canvass the surge of mail-in ballots. A simple legislative fix could see Pennsylvania provide a result hours, not days, after polls close. Florida and other GOP-leaning states have adopted similar solutions.

But instead, state Republicans have held legislation to make the fix hostage with a demand of their own: requiring voter ID for elections.

The overall picture is a level of delay likely to mimic that which the country experienced in 2020, for largely the same reasons. It's the result of conscious policy choices, both aimed at making voting more difficult and at keeping the window in which one of the largest swing states does not report its results open for as long as possible.

If you mean that Trump might declare himself the winner by 11pm, you can update that to this moment, because that's what he's always doing when he claims he's got enough votes already to win.

The Bush v Gore 2000 election was not decided until December 12th of that year.

Nearly a month and a half after the election.

The way maga has meddled with and undermined our election laws it may take that long again to decide this election again. I seriously doubt it will be decided the night of the election unless democrats somehow manage to win in an overwhelming landslide.

But even that won't matter to Trumpy.

Trumpy will declare himself the winner (again) no matter what but that won't mean he actually won. (Again)
