 During the call today to MSNBC, was the president reading off of the script? So I was in the room when the president called into Morning Joe. The president spoke from his heart. The president was very clear there was no script at all. And he was very detailed. You heard him say actually during the call that he was reading some quotes. He said it. He shared that information. He was reading some quotes from the debate. So he shared that with you. What you heard was a passionate interview. It was about 18 minutes long.
