Conceding a bit that Trump may have had a good night, Meacham allowed, “I think Trump did himself good with his base tonight. The question for America is how big that base is.”
Earlier, he snarled at the President’s performance: “Well, it was remarkable to watch it in person. I've never seen a general election debate actually in the room. And one man was running for president of the United States, and the other man was auditioning for a show on Fox.”
Trying to make his hack Democratic talking points sound profound, he added, “And that may sound like an attempt at glibness, but it was the innate reaction I had to watching the President who dwells in this wilderness of mirrors, to borrow a phrase from the Cold War, where there are these code words."
