Put yourself in Baier's shoes. If you let her babble on, you never hear an answer. If you redirect her back to the original question, you get accused of being rude. Fuck that. Bret's a real journalist. He did the right thing.

Baier incessantly interrupted so as an answer couldn't be given. If he would have kept his mouth quiet, he could have challenged her answer. nothing mean about keeping your pie hole shut.

The "lie" is you making reference to people at work affecting the ratings. Originally Posted by Precious_b

My guess is those response are ingrained in her because of her former occupation as a lawyer/prosecutor. Just like Hillary Clinton, lawyers respond to questions like a legal proceeding. It definitely requires an interviewer with a certain degree of knowledge to get a great interview. Originally Posted by Precious_b

IMO, she has given them nothing but the exact same shit in all of her interviews. People want to hear more details from her, and she refuses to give it to them. She claims to be the underdog in the race, so she should act like one. Instead, to me, she is like watching a gerbil running on a wheel and going nowhere when I hear her speak now.

She has all of the financial resources and pretty much everything else she needs to win this election. What she doesn't have is enough substance to win this election IMO. I wouldn't have thought that a few weeks ago but now I do because nothing has changed with her vague and boring delivery.

quite right. the problem with lawyers is that they are used to asking questions .. not answering them.


and Harris seems programmed to say only one reply ... "Let me be clear .. I'm not Trump"


she'll lose because she refuses to answer even the most basic question.

As such, she will go down in history as the person who saved the nation from collapse.

That’s precisely who we need now.

did Harris ever once give a direct answer to a direct question?


Nope.

who was panicking and waving off the interview to end? not Bret Baier. her campaign wanted her to stop.


ask yerself why? "IF" she was doing so great being "brave" against the "Meanie "Bret Baier"? Originally Posted by The_Waco_Kid

And where did I say Bret was mean? I only stated she didn't complain about the interview. I would be a hypocrite if I said she whined about it like your boy does everything.

Actually, he interrupted so an answer COULD be given. How else do you stop her from filibustering the entire interview with non-answers?

See statement above about giving donny a hall pass and holding a whole other set of criteria for others.

See above for the melange one.

Now, no one has given a link to where I asked for an interview with trump where, as someone stated, "... he interrupted so an answer COULD be given. How else do you stop him from filibustering the entire interview with non-answers?"

Still waiting.

You are correct on that. Lawyers respond differently to questions than normal people. As do people in the intelligence community. And I can see how it would turn people off.

Was watching Lincoln the other night. Had to do the double with Birth of a Nation as the first movie. Licoln, being a lawyer himself, surely had the same issues. But I like how they portrayed the guy in handling a country divided like we seem to be today.

And the opening and closing with Defense Sec Gates had pretty good insight about such divisions in our country.
Trump’s act is old news. no one really wants to see it anymore. Originally Posted by txdot-guy
