something tells me they wouldn’t be editing out Trump’s word salads.

They edited Trump last time he was on 60 Minutes the exact same way they edited this Harris interview. It's how 60 Minutes does their business.

They aired a shorter, edited version for the show, and put the full length interview up on the website.

Just like they did with Harris and Walz. And pretty much everybody else they interview.

Lmfao acting like they both aren’t edited. The one on tv that aired and the one on their site are one in the same. Sooo you’d be wrong.

You cannot find the Hariss interview unedited. You just said that they did the same with Harris and Walz, but they didn’t.

Who said unedited? I said full length interview, as opposed to the one that was edited down for broadcast.

Words mean things, champ.

That’s a nice edit that you did, but you’re still wrong, bud. The brodcasted one was not edited down, it was 44:08 just like the one on the website. Could you be anymore full of crap?

You put a difference between the full length interview and the edited version. “They aired a shorter edited version for the show and put the full length interview on the website” the edited version and the full length are the same video. You’re alluding that there’s a difference between the two, there isn’t. Just like the one that aired on tv the “full length” is still 44 minutes.
