Bullshit. Only when pressed, and not the first time , but when his handlers handles him. Go watch FOX. Even they were disappointed that he did not react properly in the moment. And there have been many such moments. If FOX is disappointed, then you know the man is in trouble.
Totally and completely disagree. You make it seem like the guy should be walking around with a t-shirt that specifically says it. Though if he did, it still wouldn't be enough.
The particular moment in the last debate you are referring to was garbled with Trump, Biden and Wallace all going back and forth and Trump was unable to enunciate it clearly. I'll grant you that his answer was poor. But he is on record many times saying it outright. Clearly. With no room for interpretation. The fact that they had to ask him again means they were going for a gotcha, and they got the gotcha.
