Tuesday on MSNBC, in commenting President Barack Obama’s speech about the Orlando mass shooting and why he doesn’t use the phrase “radical Islam,” NBC chief Washington correspondent Andrea Mitchell declared Obama “just eviscerated” Trump and described it as an “extraordinary speech.”
Mitchell said, “This was a passionate cry from the heart about his vision of America by this president. He has never before taken on Donald Trump. And he just eviscerated Donald Trump in that extraordinary speech. President Obama basically saying —do you think that using a phrase is a military strategy? Do you think that we sit here saying, well, maybe if we use the phrase radical Islamic terrorist than we can defeat ISIL.”
She added, “He went on to just take apart all those criticisms.”
