One down-side to this sheer mountain of books about Trump is that, no matter how compelling and damning they are, Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana has found that he can casually dismiss the lot with "These gotcha books don't really interest me that much."
It's unfortunate that Pam Brown of CNN wasn't more alert when Kennedy redirected her question about Trumps's contradictions into a question about a book by first asking her "You're talking about the Woodward book?"
She wasn't, and should have answered "No, I'm talking about what the president said, which we have on tape", but instead she fell for it and answered "Yes, the Woodward book", allowing Kennedy to proceed with his despicable game plan.

(8,043 posts)I saw that segment, and he repeated this mantra several times, always with the exact same words, even when it had little or no bearing on the question.
I'll bet this was a KGOP talking point sent out to all their flacks that morning. Just keep repeating the same line, with the magic word "gotcha" to eat up interview time.
OUR Senator Kennedy actually wrote books. I doubt this joker ever reads anything longer than his list of KGOP approved talking points.

"What a fool I've been, to come looking for courage, in a lair of cowards."
none of us should be surprised, after 4 years, to hear the party that loves and adored drumpf, suckling at his teat.
