The recent news about Wolf’s query whether Paul Ryan still ‘personally trusted’ Trump
There have been concerns about President Trump’s tweets and that because his credibility could be damaged because of the false claim. And because of the false claims, people might start believing that Trump can’t be trusted. It was the speaker of MSNBC Paul Ryan who stated this thought of his.
Blitzer had his opinion out strongly.
