On Monday, all three network morning shows reveled in President Obama blasting Donald Trump during a college commencement address over the weekend. At the top of NBC’s Today, co-host Matt Lauer touted: “President Obama takes a not-so-veiled shot at Donald Trump in a commencement address...” A soundbite played of Obama ranting: “It's not cool to not know what you're talking about.”
Moments later, Lauer declared that it had been “a difficult weekend for Donald Trump” with “President Obama is weighing in on the race.” Correspondent Peter Alexander proclaimed: “Donald Trump is on the defensive on several fronts after reports of his past boorish behavior toward women, a lukewarm evaluation from the nation's most powerful Republican, and attacks from the President.”
