I look at it another way. NBC did Trump the biggest favor in the world. Holt set up Hillary to use every bit of ammunition to destroy Trump. On the other hand, Holt made sure Trump never took his gun out of the holster.
The result? Hillary fired all her ammo and didn’t hit Trump. Everything Trump didn’t say can now be used and it will be fresh. Meanwhile Hillary has nothing left to attack Trump with.
Game, set, match.
Yeah, if Hillary brings up loans from Trump’s father, or fat beauty pageant contestants again, it will make her look like and even bigger shrew.
