Margaret Hoover is an excellent interviewer. I stumbled across her interview with Elie Honig. Subsequently, I watched her interviews with Andrew Weissmann and, of course, Maggie Haberman. In all three cases, she shined. All three guests were also first-rate.
She most certainly is. I have Firing Line set to record on my DVR as I enjoy every interview. Many who like to think themselves journalists should watch her. They could learn a lot from Margaret Hoover as she is polite, well informed about each guest, and asks important questions.
It's still so hard for me to believe that fellow citizens have trust and faith in that man. I cannot imagine anyone, more dishonest, corrupt, self-centered, and cruel. This interview was too short.
It's great that Margaret Hoover sees the Republican Party for what it has become. When is she going to step back and analytically take a look at what the Federalist Society has become and done to the U. S. Judicial system with many of the judges it recommended for confirmation to the Federal Court system when Trump was in the Oval Office (and will do should he return to that position)????>
The SC is illegitimate. The chaos of the last decade a legacy of Citizen's United. Pelsosi's husband just one victim. And here PBS is resurrecting a blue blood segregationist's tv show? This is a news world in denial of reality. climate change, etc.
She won't. Like Buckley before her, she wishes to be seen as a gatekeeper for the conservative movement. She will denounce Trump, but she will never denounce the Federalist Society.
In 2018, Haberman's reporting on the Trump administration earned the Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting (shared with colleagues at the Times and The Washington Post), the individual Aldo Beckman Award for Journalistic Excellence award from the White House Correspondents' Association, and the Front Page Award for Journalist of the Year from the Newswomen's Club of New York. (Copied from Wikipedia) I love her work, much admiration for her and think she's a brilliant journalist.
I'm just reading the book now. I'm surprised by how early his associations with Manafort, Stone, and Guiliani started. The story unfolds as if New York, and especially NYC, is a small town, with everybody knowing everybody! Fascinating intersections of powerful people.
The world would be better if America’s mainstream news channels taught their journalists to be like Maggie, to the point, fact based verses an emotional reaction of the news.
Maggie Handyman is a truly non biased interviewer. SHE tells it like it is. Myself, just seeing drump take the oath of office causes me to regurgitate a bit of bile every time I see it.

Or what about Hillary or Biden being lambasted on The View? Well, that never happened. Do you know why? It's called a liberal bias and any media that works with the left will work overtime attacking their enemy (Trump) the NYT, WaPo, NPR, Business Insider, Daily Beast, etc., are all media of the left owned variety. So before you bow down to the puppets, whatever their ilk, try to understand where they are coming from. They hate Trump because he is the opposition and if he regains power, they lose a slice of the pie.
Maggie Haberman, Thank you so much for this interview giving a synopsis of your book. MOSTLY your incite, intelligent view, comprehensive history of Trump and overall picture of Donald. I feel you understand Trump more than Mary Trump
I agree with you, although I would point out that M. Haberman has been following Trump as a public figure for decades as a journalist while Mary Trump, in addition to being his niece, is a psychologist. They see him and his actions from different perspectives.
Yeah she's a great journalist all right! She got a Pulitzer for her story on Russiagate which turned out to be a complete lie and a hoax. Nothing she said in her story was true! Way to get to the facts Maggie.
He's naturally an authoritarian, born to be. The only reason he didn't go further by using the military in ways he preferred is he was talked off the cliff many times by people he decided to listen to then and there. But a second term would bring out and expose his true authoritarian desires, intentions and plans for our country. He is dumb in allot of ways but a really good conman with sharp instincts to how to get around obstacles. He has abilities to con with a raw fearlessness when it comes to pushing his weight full on and breaking all the rules. He is very bad for our country. Of course, he's an authoritarian. He idolizes all authoritarians living and passed. He staged a overthrow of our U.S. government while he was President to stay in power. That's a Coup. He's evil to the core.
You support a satanic coup. Get over yourself then take the time to look up previous presidents shortcomings. Most were horrible as were the coverups. Trump is just as human as you are and other presidents.
@@maryreese3554 There's all varieties of humans and some of them, we avoid meeting up with in the dark allies. Trump is that kind and I consider him subhuman.
I have read the book. It's very well written and researched. I recommend it to anyone who wants to understand the way Trump thinks. And the disfunction that rules both his business and in the end his administration.
If you looked at Trump with a discriminating but objective eye, if you watched the first months of his presidency with interest and fair mindedness, and then watched him lapse into indulgence and pettiness, you can pretty well guess what's in the book without reading it, though I will eventually read it.
Great interview. The only thing that surprises me why isn’t all that so obvious to everyone in the country? How can so many believe such ConMan ? I’ll never understand it.
Remember what Lincoln used to say: you can fool some of the people all of the time, and you can fool all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. I think that says all we need to know about the Big Orange One.
There is a reason for the bell curve classification of human intelligence. The bell curve describes distribution of degreesn of intelligence. Most are at the center, basically normal average humanity. Half fall above, half fall below the midline. As Ann Landers (or maybe it was Dear Abby) once said about a reader's less competent doctor, one must remember 50% of them graduated in the bottom half of their class. Trump is able to communicate better with those. There is a reason he loves the uneducated. While many of them embody some strengths and graces beyond our own, reading comprehension and critical thinking are seldom among them. It might help us to understand why the trump support phalanx is so desperately anxious to keep critical thinking out of education. It cuts down on their food chain.
Oh they see it well enough. Its just they use his “achievements” to get their bite. Look how the woman who said Am trump in a dress & I took notes as he spoke & the list goes on
In short they are using him, they know better. They think it’s Gods will to abolish abortion even illegally. That’s how it got started anyway, some of them are truly ignorant & watch Fox News only.
After she doesn't much research. The phone call asking Brad to reexamine and Trump wants to find more votes was edited to sound like he was pressuring Brad to create more votes . And most of envelopes were empty others were copies and all were about himself
Osmosis, you do realize that conspiracy theories are not facts. He was recorded by a Republican who voted for him. But being a Trumplican brainwashed by right wing propaganda, you will never recognize facts nor reality. If such people weren't so dangerous, it would be hysterically funny.
It’s true. He doesn’t want responsibility unless taking responsibility means getting praise. Often, tho, he is not the one responsible for any successes.
That was very good. Unfortunately, as a news junkie for many years, there was really nothing here that could qualify as new knowledge to me. I've known who #TFG was for about 40 years. But I did really enjoy watch Margaret (one of my favs) do this interview with Maggie (one of my favs), because they're both so good at expressing things and being focused and informative.

Be she's always been honest and very sharp. And Maggie might make me want to throw a vase through the window on a regular basis, but I do like reading her stuff. She knows what's going on. Mostly. :)

Very good interview. Ms. Hoover is well-informed, and asks incisive, short questions. Ms. Haberman, a stellar reporter, does most of the talking. That's how it's done. Brava!
No Mr. Trump, Maggie Haberman is a first rate reporter. This interview is very ironic after Trump lost elections this week with so many of his whacky candidates. The midterms seem to be the ONLY THING that is making the GOP let go of Donald Trump's influence.
I can tell you one time Donald Trump spoke the truth. When he started a sentence with “ The late great Bill Buckley…” There was even humility as well because he would have known Buckley had criticised him.
Yes Trump is causing the destruction of the Republican Party I am a Republican since first Ronald Reagan in 1980 but wouldn’t vote for Trump Both times. I will not vote for anyone that supports the big lie or is one of his following. I wish more Real Republicans were like McCain or Liz Cheney. Love your shows keep making them please for the sake of the country.
One January 2015 strategy document - designed to plant stories on Clinton’s decision-making process about whether to run for president - singled out reporter Maggie Haberman, then of Politico, now covering the election for the New York Times, as a “friendly journalist” who has “teed up” stories for them in the past and “never disappointed” them.
Interesting interview. Hoover is able to overcome the usual litany of conservative thinking flaws to provide a more balanced exploration of the subject. Of course it helped that the subject was Haberman and Trump.
Looking at that clip at about 12:30, it looks like Roy Cohn had his nose and his eye sockets broken. Is that accurate? (It looked much deeper than his skin.)
I broke out laughing at the statement " already commenting on truth social". Probably heard by ALL 9or10 people who subscribe to it!! Hahahaha hahahaha!!!
Amazing how much of this interview is already dated. But also amazing how much is very enlightening and gives meat for discussion in the coming couple years.
To call this "Firing Line" is a viciously deflective move to quash William F. Buckley Jr., who on PBS for decades dealt with the same bottom line political philosophies very efficaciously.
So using the National Guard was frantically opposed by the Democrats because the optics of Trump as a enforcer of laws during the summer of 2020 could solidify his authority. Then when the National Guard was really needed, he was cautious about using the power. Who caused that?
