MAGA News Channel Cuts Away as Interview Goes Off the Rails

RAV A right-wing channel abruptly cut away from an interview with a Donald Trump rallygoer after the segment quickly derailed.

During coverage of Trump’s rally in Youngstown, Ohio on Monday, Real America’s Voice cut to Bobby McNeily, a reporter for the Pro-Trump network.

McNeily, who was inside the arena, introduced an interview with a man he spoke with earlier while he was waiting in line.

The man was identified as Brian.

McNeily opened by riffing on Brian’s Forrest Gump T-shirt, quoting the movie’s “I just felt like running” line and adding, “I love that movie.” Then the bit fell apart.

Looking baffled, McNeily told viewers he was “hearing from friends” that the man beside him was “not a fan of President Trump.” “It’s very interesting,” McNeily said, “because I’ve never really spoken to anyone that I can recall, interviewing them, not a fan of President Trump, but standing in line to see him.

Brian then revealed that it was his first Trump rally.

“What are you hoping to hear tonight?” McNeily asked.

“What I hope to hear is not what I plan to hear… what I plan to hear is a bunch of rhetoric, a bunch of lies, a bunch of the same old script, that sort of stuff,” Brian said.

“I’m here to get a firsthand perspective of the kind of lies and garbage and stuff that he’s going to probably be peddling for the next two years, as if the first two haven’t been bad enough.” “Do you consider yourself a registered Democrat, or how would you vote before?” McNeily asked.

“I was independent, because I consider myself moderate,” he said.

“I was independent until JD Vance entered our ballot, and then I actually registered for a Republican.

My strategy being, if I can keep him off the general election ballot by voting against him in a primary, then I get two chances to eliminate all these MAGA idiots.

That’s my approach.” McNeily then followed up with a question about whether Vance’s selection had encouraged him.
