Geraldo Rivera Rebukes “Sore Loser” Donald Trump; Kamala Harris Endorsed By Ex-‘Apprentice’ Contestant & Vet Journalist

The Trump campaign responded to Deadline’s request for comment on Rivera’s comments. Its brevity says it all on all levels. “Who’s Geraldo?” stated Trump spokesperson Stephen Cheung.
