Cuomo interview with Conway

I may old-fashioned and quaint as all hell, but I don't understand how Kellyanne (or anyone) can possibly go on TV with a performance like that and still look at herself in the mirror.

Unfortunately, Chris didn't do himself any favors by engaging in that back-and-forth either. I think of the old-timers like Cronkite, who would have been far more controlled and classy.

Of course (of course), altercations like that do sell advertising time, so what the heck. Take it all with a shakerful of salt.

Why countenance liars?

He should have asked her if she signed an NDA preventing her from disparaging the president.

and it's campaign against American democracy.

She is a bold-faced liar. Every honest person sees it. But the republicans wrap their arms around her, for she is lying for the republican-russian cause against America

They have the same back & forth each time Conway is on the show, so much so that it appears planned in order to "make sparks". Nothing to see there...it's all bogus.

On his show, he looks weak.

He did himself no favors in creating this embarrassing scene. There was no journalism or news involved.

Chris Cuomo had enough and he said nobody has called me Christopher since I was in the first grade.

I don't want to watch arguments. He has all trump's flunkies on repeatedly just to argue with them. what's the point? They get enough airtime on that other channel.

How about talking about other news other than Trump for a change. I'm so sick of it. 24/7 Trump. Like nothing else is happening in the country or the world.
