EXCERPT:
What, if anything, was left of Norah O’Donnell’s credibility went up in flames on Sunday when the 60 Minutes correspondent repeated an alleged would-be assassin’s baseless accusations against President Donald Trump without hesitation.
Cole Allen, the 31-year-old armed man who allegedly stormed a Secret Service checkpoint at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where Trump, members of his administration, and thousands of guests were wined and dined, was not shy in his manifesto about hoping to murder the president and his cabinet.
“I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes,” Allen reportedly wrote.
In her sit-down with Trump just one day after the latest assassination attempt, O’Donnell repeated the line with a straight face.
“What’s your reaction to that?” O’Donnell said, after remarking that the manifesto was a “stunning thing to read.”
