VIDEO-Stephanopoulos Tees Up Obama to Trash Americans as Bigots | MRCTV

[See NewsBusters for more.] Former Democratic operative turned journalist George Stephanopoulos on Thursday and Friday threw softballs at Barack Obama, setting the President up to attack certain Americans as bigots and to trash Ben Carson. On Thursday's Nightline, the journalist asked about Donald Trump’s immigration and deportation plans.  Stephanopoulos wondered, “So, what do you think when you hear people cheer for that?” Obama sneered, “I think is that there's always been a strain of anti-immigrant sentiment in America.” He added, “It's the job of leaders not to play into that sentiment. We don't want, I think, a president or any person in a position of leadership to play on those kinds of fears.” The journalist offered no push back to the pointed attack.
