Listening to Trump speak to reporters on MSNBC [View all]

It was a maelstrom of lies, ridiculous numbers, and charges. None of the reporters, even those prepared with good questions, could stop the torrent of misinformation In real time.

Following the Trump footage, MSNBC did challenge many of the points made. However the earlier footage showed how difficult it really is to counter a loud bully who simply does not value truth or accuracy.
