Do TheDotard's handlers honestly believe some still photographs of him actually paying attention during a briefing are going to make that unimaginable disaster of an interview go away? Every single human on the face of the planet---even the ones who refuse to admit it---knows that he only sits up and listens when they're kissing his ass, or maybe when someone's dangling keys or a toy in front of his face.

He had one chance to show everyone he was better than the image of the tantrum-baby who yells at reporters then storms off, and there he was, practically begging Swan to let him get away with his Sharpie-grade horseshit...the same way we know he privately begs every foreign leader from Mexico to North Korea to Russia to help prop up his image.

...far worse was when he was explaining why he sent "best wishes" to Maxwell. When Swan pointed out that she was "an alleged child sex-trafficker," he immediately blurted out a dismissive "Big deal!" That ought to be enough to hang him out to dry.

their loved one, or their neighbor, or their friend. That's really the money shot.
