I so much as see his face and have to scroll drown. His voice is so g-damn upsetting I rip the speakers out. Sometimes, I catch just enough to wonder how this nincompoop actually is the president of my county.

What a train wreck! Jonathan Swann did a great job with him, but he was just out of control with the usual lies, bullshit and red-herrings.

He is such an awful, irritating person to watch. I don't know how anyone can listen to him and genuinely think that he is intelligent or competent.

Thank you for posting, CatWoman! I don't get HBO so I was hoping someone would post it. I knew he would make a complete ass of himself.

People need to be forced to face what they voted for.

I hope this interview is on the front page of every paper tomorrow.

He still calls the 1918 Flu, the 1917 Flu and he said it more than once. Does he really not know or does he do that on purpose for some bizarre reason?

I am quite sure he has been told that it was 1918. It is highly unlikely that he wasn't. I've lost count how many times he refers to that pandemic as the 1917 Flu. I wish some reporter would bring that up, I'd love to hear his response. "Well, there is more than one school of thought on that. Some people tell me it was 1917. Others say 1918. I say 1917." Some people also told him that dogs are receiving ballots in the mail!

you really need to watch the interview -- for no other reason than to have more ammo to use against unreasonable Trump supporters.

but he was excellent. I have to give him a whole lot of credit. Trump is not an easy interview - he filibusters and talks over the interviewer, it is hard to get an answer out of him.
