Dr. Phil Fawns Over Trump in Softball Mar-a-Lago Interview

Television host Phil McGraw—known by his stage name, Dr. Phil—sided with Donald Trump on nearly everything during an interview with the newly convicted felon that aired Thursday, calling on President Joe Biden at one point to “stop pursuing” him and saying that only “stupid” people would believe that Biden wasn’t behind his recent conviction.

In the opening minutes of his interview with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, McGraw mentioned recent comments he had made regarding Trump’s New York criminal trial and his three remaining indictments.

“I called for President Biden to stop all of this now. And of course a lot of people said, ‘Oh, he can’t stop this; it’s a state case,’” McGraw recalled. “Okay, that’s an explanation for stupid people, but for people who understand how this works behind the scenes and all, I say the same thing: they need to stop this. They need to stop pursuing you.”
