Cokie Roberts: We Would’ve Been Talking About Clinton, WikiLeaks, If Not For Trump
During Thursday morning’s debate analysis on ABC, Cokie Roberts explained that the media just doesn’t have time to spend on Clinton’s scandals because they’re too busy covering Trump’s. The longtime political analyst for ABC and NPR admitted that the media “would have otherwise” been talking about Clinton, except that those stories “kept being pushed out of the top of the news” by Trump’s sexual assault accusations and lewd comments on tape.After analyst Matthew Dowd stated that Clinton won all three debates, “overwhelmingly” in the final one, he emphasised, Donald Trump “has to catch up” to Hillary but she’s too far ahead of him to do so, he stated. Roberts then jumped in to explain that Trump’s poor debate performance can’t be the only reason he was behind Clinton. “A few other things did happen,” she stated, “other than the debate.” Roberts insinuated that people cared more about Trump’s scandals then Clinton’s when she admitted, “We would have otherwise had a lot of stories about Hillary Clinton than those WikiLeaks, but they kept being pushed out of the top of the news by his [Trump’s] women,” Roberts admitted on Good Morning America, Thursday.
