On July 19th, 2020, Fox News’ reporter Chris Wallace was granted a no-holds-barred, nothing-is-off-the-table, and highly praised interview with President Trump. The edited video of this interview is available at the end of this piece. The interview is interesting because it highlights the main thrust of what has come to be called the “fake news media” in the manner of Wallace’s approach to President Trump.
Trump lied repeatedly during his interview with Chris Wallace on Fox yesterday. It amazed me that Wallace let him get away with his oft repeated distortion of how the U.S. tests more people than any other country in the world.

Yesterday, on Fox, towards the end of his panel discussion, Chris Wallace asked Karl Rove if "Trump's continued targeting of Joe Biden may be the best thing Biden has going for him right now." Rove: "Well, it would be if Biden knew how to respond. The president started going after him the weekend of September 16th and his first real tough response was October 5th, delivered late in the afternoon on the West Coast so that none of us saw it, and it was, how dare you attack my family.
This interview is a must watch. Twenty minutes with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and Fox News reporter Chris Wallace.
For the average American, this interview is full – absolutely full – of surprises.
President Rouhani deserves a lot of credit for three things:
On Sunday, Chris Wallace had Kapo Stephen Miller on his show, where he pushed back on Trump's racism by telling Miller that "There’s no question that he is stoking racial divisions," referring to Trump's repulsive lies about The Squad.
