Joe Biden and EVERY major Democrat has come out AGAINST Defunding the police Departments around the country…
They have asked for reforms, retraining and community policing efforts…
The veteran Fox talking head often shows his journalistic side with and about Donald Trump…
Why Trump would do a interview with him is beyond me?
(He DOES LOVE the spotlight)
Trump may believe so…
But he is NOT smarter than Wallace….
This sort of thing maybe a prelude to Trump and Joe Biden’s debates…
Last time he could lie and dance around questions against Hillary Clinton…
That is unlikely to be the case this fall…
Again?
Donald J. Trump is hurting his OWN approval rating while Joe Biden just rolls along in the background…
“Fox News Sunday” anchor Chris Wallace in a new interview shut down President Trump‘s claim that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is in favor of defunding the police.
The president blamed a recent rise in violence in Chicago, New York and other major cities on Democratic leadership, saying urban centers are “stupidly run.” When Wallace noted that Democrats have led cities for decades, Trump suggested the increase in killings was because of the defund the police movement.
“It’s gotten totally out of control and it’s really because they want to defund the police, and Biden wants to defund the police,” Trump said in a clip of the interview, which will air in its entirety on Sunday.
“Sir, he does not,” Wallace interjected.
“Look, he signed a charter with Bernie Sanders,” Trump shot back, referencing a lengthy unity platformunveiled by Biden and the Vermont senator that offers a number of progressive policy proposals.
“And it says nothing about defunding the police,” Wallace said.
“Oh really? It says abolish, it says defund. Let’s go. Get me the charter, please,” Trump said, turning to staff off camera.
Wallace recounted on Fox News that Trump had his staff fetch highlights of the unity pledge from the Biden and Sanders team and found “a lot of things that he objected to that Biden has agreed to. But he couldn’t find any indication — because there isn’t any — that Joe Biden has sought to defund and abolish the police.”…
Here’s the Hill’s piece on the Wallace/Trump sit-down…
Trump wants Biden to sit down with Wallace …Which is of course Trump trying top get Biden where he had the other GOPer’s last time…His style is to keep the spot light OFF of himself and on the other person…..
President Trump, in an interview Sunday with Fox News’s Chris Wallace, questioned former Vice President Joe Biden’s capacity to do a similarly tough interview.
“Let Biden sit through an interview like this, he’ll be on the ground crying for mommy. He’ll say, ‘Mommy, mommy, please take me home,’” the president said on “Fox News Sunday.”
Trump repeatedly questioned the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee’s mental acuity throughout the interview, dismissing polling that shows him trailing Biden and saying “the country in the end, they’re not going to have a man who — who’s shot. He’s shot, he’s mentally shot.”…

Is he mocking George Floyd or just being his typical self?-
Typical Trump alternate universe view of things….
I have no idea why Trump agreed to that interview.
I can’t believe his campaign advisors recommended it (if they did they are bigger fools than he is).
I presume that his ego just wouldn’t let him refuse.
Whatever the reason?It did him no good and likely hurt him among those undecided ,but leaning toward him.
Ego and I think he STILL believes that he can bull shit everyone, Fox News especially , to go with him….
The guy HAS to believe that he’ll do what he did with Hillary….
2020 just IS NOT 2016….
Different Trump & History…
Different America …Virus & Economy…
Different media…Questions his lies….
AND?
A Tired American looking to get off the chaotic Trump train…
My favorite line from the interview was when Wallace asked Trump about the numerous times he had said that the virus would just go away.
Trump replied that he would be right “eventually.”
Well yeah.
Sort of like putting a monkey in front of a keyboard ,”eventually “ he will type a word!
Trump challenging Biden on his mental acuity reminds me of Trump challenging Hillary on corruption.
It is my personal perception that Trump has had as much mental decline as Biden, if not more. Trump can no longer speak in a complex sentence without getting confused. His longer sentences almost never make any sense. Biden’s main problem is that he rambles and is unfocused in what he says – although he always rambled for as long as I can remember him. So of the two, Trump appears to me to have more problems with age-related mental acuity. Just my personal perception…
At 9 o’clock this morning [Eastern Time], I had a choice between This Week on ABC, CNN’s State of the Nation and Fox News Sunday with a whole hour of Chris Wallace & DJT.
About 3 seconds of Trump were all that I needed to decide to skip instead between the other two stations. I really couldn’t stand more.
