Lawrence: 'Stupidest' candidate Trump did not answer reporters' questions

Donald Trump rambled and lied for over an hour without any follow up questions or fact-checking. MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell says that while he hopes Vice President Harris answers questions from reporters, after the press conference that Donald Trump turned into a “charade,” Vice President Harris has “absolutely no greater obligation to do so because of what Donald Trump pretended to do today.”

Lawrence O'Donnell should be running his network. He has consistently shown morals, values and ethics that used to be a prerequisite for reporting the news.

100% Agree. The response that you read from Trump didn’t have one complete sentence! Unbelievable people listen to him. I personally cannot listen to his voice.

Thank you Lawrence for speaking the truth and standing for professionalism, integrity and decency .

12:54 Slamming down the papers after reading Trump's incoherent response was a terrific flourish. O'Donnell is the MAN. One of the few remaining REAL newsmen on TV today. This segment was epic, on point, and long overdue. Thank you, Mr. O'Donnell. 🙏🏻
