The Spin
Pro-Trump narrative
This interview demonstrates the massive shift in American politics toward Trump, even while the establishment is doing everything it can to censor it and the positive reactions to it. As McGraw noted, many people have changed their minds on Trump and are ready to vote for him. The political witch hunt and the biased media coverage are endearing Trump to the American people.
Anti-Trump narrative
Even in a softball interview, Trump couldn’t contain his desire to exact revenge on his political rivals. He has been clear about his desire to punish his political enemies, and the sympathetic interviewer didn’t press him on his dangerous fantasies. No matter the setting, Trump will always reveal himself as a threat to a free America.
