28. Gillum needs to relax more on that FBI question

His response was fine except he was clearly uncomfortable for the first time, with plenty of pauses and "uh" and "um" before he made the point.

Gillum is going to be hammered on that topic repeatedly so he has to find a comfort zone and a confident response. He can't be like Hillary with the emails, where she knew it was overblown but her summaries never satisfied the masses.

Chuck Todd actually took it very easy on him, compared to how that issue will be posed by others, with more detail.

Overall it was an excellent appearance
