Total silence
It’s now been more than half a day since Fox News aired Chris Wallace’s interview with Donald Trump. By any objective measure, it was a total disaster for Trump. Wallace called out his failures and lies at every turn. Trump stumbled each time he tried to push back.
Here’s the telling part about how poorly it went for Trump: even he seems to understand that it went poorly. He’s made no mention of the interview on Twitter, good, bad or otherwise. He’s not bothering to try to spin the interview in a positive light. He’s not even bothering to attack Chris Wallace. He’s just hoping everyone will forget it happened. It went that poorly for him.
