Listen to the snippet, people! Douthat appears to interrupt Trump when he’s in a non-combative mood and answering the question Douthat has asked about his proposed amnesty deal. Instead, Douthat switches the topic to a less important question (“Do you think immigration hurt you in the midterms.”) Now, maybe this was actually an edit by anti-substance CBS-ers. Hard to tell. If so Douthat shouldn’t have allowed the edit — I mean, why leave in the question (“What”) if you’re going to cut the entire answer?
