Lawrence O'Donnell
@Lawrence

Last night I made an error in judgment by reporting an item about the president’s finances that didn’t go through our rigorous verification and standards process. I shouldn’t have reported it and I was wrong to discuss it on the air. I will address the issue on my show tonight.

O'Donnell has a habit of getting out over his skis.

I will never forget the confidence with which O'Donnell explained, how it is obvious to anyone who thinks, that:

Trump will never actually run for president, because he'd have to disclose stuff.

Trump will never get the GOP nomination.

Trump will never win.

Trump will be brought down by (fill in the blank).

Suppose, Lawrence plays his supposed error over and over, in reporting this story, the recorded segment, should also include his IF TRUE caveate..each time he mentioned the trump/russia connection..re loans..in his quest to point out the error in reporting..how many times can he play the segment..supposed error...now don't you think ALL the air time will just keep the SUBJECT MATTER in play?? Just me musing..

I watched Lawrence last night..me thinks the pos gang just pooped themselves...
