I am not defending her actions -- I am saying that it is not necessarily an ambush pre-planned with Obama.
What I am saying is that she heard the White House spin argument, looked up the transcript, bought into it, and then brought the thing to the debate on her anticipation that this issue would be raised
How did HE know she had the transcript? That’s why people suspect collusion. Too many questions.
Completely reasonable. But why would a moderator have felt the need to fact-check during a debate? That wasn’t her role. Yet she was ready for it.
