WELL, THIS WAS AN AWKWARD FINISH
Midweek, GOP presidential candidate and thrice-indicted Donald Trump played a little softball with Newsmax host Eric Bolling.
The pretaped sitdown interview was a replay of Trump’s greatest hits, grievances and self-pity.
And at the finish, Trump once again revisited the 2020 election he claims was “rigged.”
“I believe I won that election by many, many votes, many, many hundreds of thousands of votes,” he said. “That’s what I think.”
Then came the disclaimer:
“All right, folks, now just to note: Newsmax has accepted the election results as legal and final,” Bolling told viewers.
Now note that Bolling didn’t challenge Mr. Trump directly.
He did it after the taped segment.
No profile in courage here.
He just added a little disclaimer in hopes that this latest softball interview doesn’t get added to the list of evidence in Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Newsmax over its willfully false reporting on the 2020 election.
