From the November 24, 2020, edition of NewsmaxTV's Greg Kelly Reports 

GREG KELLY (HOST): Alright, so where are we? Yeah, we're in a bit of a hole right now. The mainstream media relentlessly convincing us -- trying to at least -- that this thing is over. How many times have they tried to convince us that Donald Trump was finished?

Dozens? Scores perhaps? Going back even to his business career? On and on it goes. 

But I think we can all agree that maybe one of the worst moments was in October of 2016 when the media deliberately and strategically released that Access Hollywood tape just when it might do they thought the maximum amount of damage.

And a lot of people -- supporters of the President, Republicans in name only, Democrats were celebrating -- they thought it was all over after this.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: She wanted to get some furniture. I said, “I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.” I took her furniture —

I moved on her like a bitch. 

[CLIP ENDS]

KELLY: So, the headlines were terrible and I know a lot of people who gave up. I actually, for a little while, thought, "Woah! There is no coming back from that."
