Rob Reiner smokes the media for not making Trump actually answer a question [View all]

I haven't had cable for a long time, so watching clips of news shows on the internet is almost like watching a spectacle

Reiner is pretty much saying when someone spews bullshit you have to call them on it

Amazingly, both hosts he was talking to are just flabbergasted... what? How in the world could we actually make someone answer a question??

You said yourself he talks in circles, how the hell are we suppose to get an answer out of that?

Seriously, that is their defense. And even worse, they seem deeply offended.. they are really really offended that a journalist should be expected to get a politician to answer a question

After cutting the cable for years, this stuff seems pretty crazy

Video is here ..
