“Should OMara sit down because the tape is not an issue instead of trying to rehabilitate the situation.”
Just because he doesn’t “just sit down” DOESN”T mean any real damage was done. Any good lawyer will try and discredit/clarify/spin etc any detail that could potentially aid the opponent no matter how minute it may be. It’s their job.
You’re reading waaaay too much into the fact that he didn’t just sit down and shut up.
These interviews are to provoke particular verbal responses...They are almost like trying to create a fairy tale out of the truth...I call it gap questioning...because it ignores the strict sequence of events.
