Harlan Hill: ‘No Question That President Trump Is the Most Transparent, Honest, Forthright President We’ve Ever Had’
EXCERPT:
HILL: "I think it’s fair to ask any president that, but there’s no question that President Trump is the most transparent, honest, forthright president we’ve ever had."
FAULKNER: "Why do you say that?"
HILL: "He overcommunicates, almost to his detriment sometimes, according to the media. He goes to Twitter, he speaks directly to the American people without any filter, without going through the media, without going through surrogates, and that’s powerful and that’s really largely unprecedented in American history with the president. And in working back from there, embedded in the very question or the criticism of the president is — there’s a problem. The political media in this country has been totally dishonest and they’ve attacked the President, they’ve slandered him, they’ve compared him to Hitler, they’ve incited violence against members of Congress. So the idea that the media doesn’t share blame in this, it's really unfortunate, it's dishonest, it’s disingenuous, and it's got to come to a stop. We need to have a conversation in this country about dialing back the rhetoric. And just pointing the finger at the President is totally unreasonable, because he is not going to back down from the bullies in the mainstream media that are hellbent on destroying him."
