What Really Happened At The NBC Presidential Forum With Matt Lauer
Democrat Hillary Clinton’s behind the scenes tirade after NBC’s Matt Lauer asked Clinton the one question she had not pre-approved
Veteran nbc cameraman: ‘you really had to see this to believe it...she came apart – literally unglued; she is the most foul-mouthed woman i’ve ever heard...and that voice at screech level...awful’
”she looked so enraged that we all thought her head would explode...it was a full-on melt-down and then she screamed she’d get that f - - - ing lauer fired for this. It went on for at least a half hour; we all thought the ems would be the next call”
NBC Associate Producer of Forum
Behind the scenes, NBC technicians and cameramen at the Wednesday night, Commander-in-Chief Forum (Sept 7) report that Hillary Clinton was so angry and incensed that she had been ‘blind-sided’ by one question she was not prepared for and had not approved in advance.
“When her time in front of the cameras ended, Clinton shook the hand Lauer extended to her and smiled once more for the wide camera shot and then Hillary proceeded to pick up a full glass of water and threw it at the face of her assistant and the screaming started. She was in a full meltdown and no one on her staff dared speak with her – she went kind of manic and didn't have any control over herself at that point. How these people work with this woman is amazing to me. Most of the small military audience were cordoned off, their seating not close to Mrs. Clinton, but certainly they heard her screaming because it was loud...and she really didn't seem to care who heard any of it.”
Republican Donald Trump also appeared, in a separate telecast from Hillary Clinton’s and arrived with his two sons but no entourage or assistants in tow. The NBC cameramen involved in his segment said he was a ‘true gentleman’ and Trump and his sons spoke to everyone and thanked them for inviting him to speak: “It was a pleasure to answer your questions Matt.”
Hillary Clinton’s segment was much different. According to people working on the sidelines, “When Matt posed the one legitimate question about the FBI investigation concerning her homemade server and the unsecured emails, we could see she was beginning to boil and her eyes looked to pop.”
“It was toward the end of her interview so she was becoming unglued by the time Lauer finished with questioning. Hillary went ballistic, throwing a huge tantrum and screaming at her staff, “you f - - - ing idiots, you were supposed to have this thing set up for me and you’ve screwed it up! If that f - - - ing bastard wins we all hang from nooses! Lauer’s finished...and if I lose it’s all on you ass - - - - s for screwing this up.”
Clinton finally stormed off the military ‘set’ and the assistant producer said she was screaming that she wanted to talk to “the idiot who set this mess up...you do not blindside me - ever!” and continued to demand to speak with executives at Comcast, parent company to NBC Universal.
Her dozen or more aides were visibly disturbed and tried to calm her down when she started shaking uncontrollably. That did not stop her from demanding an executive “on the phone, now!” She was told the executive-in-charge of the forum was ready to talk with her and she was led away by two rather large aides who appeared to help her walk.
The TV executives got the message with all of the censuring headlines that followed over the next couple of days when it seemed the entire media turned on Matt Lauer for behaving in a “partisan” manner and “being grossly unfair and critical of the former secretary of state.”
Matt Lauer was heavily criticized on air by the Clinton campaign the rest of the week with most of the mainstream media joining in. The media appeared to frame Matt’s one serious question as the Clinton campaign was doing...”an unfair and partisan attack on Mrs. Clinton.”
Matt Lauer is still facing major backlash following his 23 minutes with Hillary Clinton. Privately, many reporters said Matt handed the Democrat nominee the expected softball questions, but made the decision to ask about the emails because, “the American people deserve an answer from the former secretary of state.”
Calls were made to New York Times, Washington Post and Huffington Post and Twitter executives with orders to “Crush Matt Lauer”. As you can easily see with all the headlines from these MSM sources, they did as they were told by the Clinton campaign.
Hillary also screamed that she would be “treated with respect at the debates or heads will roll.” Staffers at the Clinton campaign report that they fear her wrath and uncontrollable outbursts, and one described Hillary as “an egotistical psychopath”.
Since Hillary does not allow any staff to have cell phones when she is in their presence, no footage is available, but Hillary will never let this rest. She has made it clear that she wants Matt Lauer to be “persona non grata - for putting her on the spot.”
Interim DNC chairman Donna Brazile, the first black woman to hold the position, was singled out by Hillary during the rant. She screamed at Donna, “I’m so sick of your face. You stare at the wall like a brain dead buffalo, while letting that f - - - ing Lauer get away with this. What are you good for, really? Get the f - - - to work janitoring this mess - do I make myself clear?”
A female NBC executive said that Donna Brazile looked at Mrs. Clinton and never flinched, which seemed to enrage Hillary all the more. The executive continued, “It was the most awful and terrible...and racist display – such a profane meltdown I have ever witnessed from anyone, and I will never forget it. That woman should never see the inside of the oval office I can tell you that. She was unhinged and just continued to verbally abuse everyone – she was out of control.”

What Really Happened At The NBC Presidential Forum... (show quote)
Matt Lauer and NBC tried their best to turn the Commander-in-Chief forum into a hit job on Hillary Clinton, but the Democratic nominee rose above and shined.
Hillary Clinton began the forum and when asked what the most important characteristic is she expressed the need for judgment and temperament. Matt Lauer’s second question was about Clinton’s emails and why that isn’t a disqualifying factor. Clinton said that she has a lot of experience in dealing with classified material, and none of the emails sent or received by her had a top secret or classified header.
Matt Lauer brought up the favorite Republican conspiracy that her email system was hacked. Former Sec. of State Clinton said that there was no evidence that her system was hacked.
The first question was from a vet who asked how anyone who handled classified info could have confidence in her. Clinton answered that classified material is designated and marked….and what we have here is the use of unclassified system used by hundreds of people in the government to communicate information that was not classified.
She added that she used a separate system for classified information.
Clinton turned a Matt Lauer question around on her Iraq war vote and made her answer about responsibility and judgment.
Sec. Clinton was asked about future wars and said that she views the use of force as a last resort. Clinton pointed out that Trump supported intervention. More than halfway through Clinton’s appearance, she has not gotten to discuss foreign policy or veterans’ issues.
Lauer asked Clinton if she would use military intervention if Iran cheated on the nuclear deal. Lauer tried to cut off Clinton’s answer. Clinton stood her ground and actually got to talk about an issue.
Nearly twenty minutes in, Clinton got a question about the VA. She said she was outraged by the VA scandal and she wants to move the VA into the 21st Century. Clinton hit Trump for wanting to privatize the VA, and she vowed to hold a weekly White House meeting on veterans’ issues if she is elected president.
Lauer asked about the epidemic of veterans’ suicide and what Clinton would do to prevent it. She answered that she has an entire plan to deal with veterans’ mental health. She mentioned the stigma of that prevents vets from coming forward, and the problem of addiction among vets.
Clinton was asked by vet how and where she would deploy troops to fight ISIS. Clinton displayed her knowledge of ISIS and vowed not to commit ground troops to Iraq and Syria. She promised that no US forces would be committed to fighting ISIS.
Matt Lauer repeatedly tried to cut off and interrupt Clinton, but the Democratic nominee got rolling and blew past the morning host’s constant interruptions.
Clinton shined in this forum. She looked, sounded, and acted like a president. Despite NBC’s best attempts to make a veterans’ forum about anything other than veterans issues, Hillary Clinton showed America why she is the most qualified candidate for the White House in history.
