EXCERPT:
KURTZ: “Yeah, it really was. And I think it’s pathetic that he’s scapegoating the media for not giving him more air time. Because the blunt truth is he has always been a fringe candidate with no plausible way of winning the presidency. And so, the reason he hasn’t gotten much air time is nobody saw him winning this thing, saw him as a spoiler, and at the same time, Bret, you know, he tried to make a deal as he became less influential, first with Kamala Harris, you give me a job if you win, a healthcare job and I will endorse you. Same thing with Donald Trump. That didn’t come about. And so, you know, he is colorful; you know, he had the great bear cover-up show why he was putting a dead bear carcass in his car and he said he had a brain worm. But I think the media just didn’t take him very seriously and I think this shows it, it shows why.”
