The Not So Weekly Daley Sharing a sneak peek at CNN’s Town ‘Haul’ discussion

As happens from time to time, one of my best sources sent me copies of the pre-screened questions from CNN’s Town Hall with Donald Trump Wednesday night.

The trove included a few questions from moderator Kaitlan Collins. Her remarks or questions are preceded by the letter “C” as in Collins. Audience questioners are identified by their first name. Mr. Trump’s answers and remarks are preceded by the letter “T” as in Trump.

C - “Mr. President, welcome. Why do you want to do this Town Hall event?”

T - “Well Kait, can I call you Kait?

I want CNN’s fake news to get it right for a change.”

C - “OK … Larry has our first audience question. Go ahead Larry.”

Larry - “Mr. President, do you realize all the great things you do, and I don’t just mean giving me money to come and participate tonight? Thanks very much.”

T - “Thank you, Lanny. And I do realize all those great things. GREATEST ever.”

Jenny - “Hi, sir. I’m Jenny. Can we get together later, just me and you, alone?”

T - “Hi Jerry, how about let’s see what happens later?”

C - “Mr. Trump, how much did you actually give Stormy Daniels to clam up?”

T - “Kait, Kait, Kait. Fake news.

The FAKIEST news in American history.”

Leslie - “Mr. President, what can you do for ‘trans’ people like me?”

T - “Not my type Lesley. The MOST not my type, ever.”

Saul - “What does ‘covfefe’ really mean? Seriously.”

T - “Really Paul? Give me a break. If you’re supposed to know you’d KNOW.”

C - “I’m with Saul, wondering about that too. Can I get a hint?”

T - “Maybe later Kait, just you and me … Can’t wait Kait, hmmm?”

Hal - “Sir, sir, remember me? Hal, from the rally today. Great. Am-Iright?”

T - “I was, wasn’t I Cal. In fact, MOST my fans rightly say, ‘You don’t get no better.’”

Gary - “Could you even GET better? I don’t think SO!”

T - “You’re the best Mary. Best ever. Best as covfefe can possibly be.”

Ron - “Don, would you consider joining me as MY Vice President?”

T - “Loser Lon the Florida Con. Go covfefe yourself, Sanctiphonius Phake.”

C - “Last question Mr. T. Can you actually be elected and govern from prison?”

T - “You know I can. BTW, come see me on visiting days? Can’t wait Kait the GREAT.”

There are a few more questions dealing with policies, voting restrictions, anti-Semitism, white supremacy and stuff like immigration reform, access to women’s health care, not to mention election fraud. But the former president either said he forgot or took the Fifth on them.

Now we can see what really did happen on Wednesday. Or not.
