They hated Trump on MSNBC.

[madaboutharry]

Universal thumbs down.

They loved Mr. Joe Kennedy.

The days of pivoting and becoming presidential are gone for good. Trump is a gangster and everyone knows if.

[underthematrix]

1. Joe Kennedy was fantastic

[Cha]

11. Thank you for that,

underthematrix!

2. Steve Schmidt was breathtakingly negative over dotard.

Kamala Harris also emphatic.

[Wwcd]

8. Yes he was. However he referred to Rep Joe Kennedy as a rising star & the future

Also heard Kennedy described as the future of the next generation.

[regnaD kciN]

3. What. A. Shock.

Next thing, you'll be telling me that Fox News loved it.

What were the reactions of other networks, ones that aren't acknowledged to be explicitly partisan?

[UTUSN]

12. Huh?

[bettyellen]

22. Well they had Tweety, Chuck Todd and Andrea Mitchell and no one really defended him

Except for one little bit of praise Andrea gave him “for style”. For those three to free it was lame was pretty amazing to see.

[SunSeeker]

27. Try the Google. It will tell you nobody outside of Fox loved it.

ABC, CBS did a lot of fact checking, pointing out his whoppers. Everyone commented on how looooong the speech was.

Then there is this headline at CNN:

CNN Instant poll: Trump gets least positive reaction in at least 20 years
https://www.cnn.com/2018/01/31/politics/state-of-the-union-reaction-poll/index.html

So, in addition to the pundits, the PEOPLE were not bowled over either. He lost ground from last year's speech to a joint session of Congress. What. A. Shock.

[Raster]

36. here's the grain of truth: "He lost ground from last year's speech to a joint session of Congress."

What. A. Shock.

[leanforward]

4. I liked Kennedy.

I also noted Senator Harris. She's good. I could easily see Kamala Harris as a Presidential candidate in 2020. The GOOD young Kenndey is still under the age limit.

Did anyone watch her on MSNBC tonight? I've been watching anything pertaining to her since the last elections.

[Wounded Bear]

5. Isn't Joe III 37?

That would meet the Constitution.

Personally, I'd rather he waited til after 2020, though.

[Staph]

6. He is 37.

He just looks 25!

[SunSeeker]

32. Anyone would look 25 following the Dotard. nt

[world wide wally]

15. We need him right NOW!

[bettyellen]

20. She wa terrific! Smartly sapping down the negative BS about immigration and pointing out his

Insulting and divisive speech. Love Kamala!

[SunSeeker]

33. Kamala is badass. So proud to have had her as my state Attorney General.

And now my Senator!

[lkinwi]

7. Yes, Im pleasantly surprised that they are all so critical.

Even Chuck Todd was weirded out by tRump’s fluff and lies speech.

[Cha]

10. lol ".. even chuck todd".. I just

read today that tRump called him a "monster".

[Cha]

9. What'd they say, mad? Too much

promoting gang talk? Divisiveness?

Thanks!

[oasis]

16. Trump's speech was crafted to diminish the accomplishments of

D.R.E.A.M.ers. At one point, Trump tried to lump DACA people in with M13 gang members. Steven Miller had his fingerprints all over that part of the speech.

[Cha]

17. So you watched, oasis?

And, what did the pundits say about it.. if you watched any of that?

What a conniving idiot So much for "the wind at his back"

Mahalo!

[oasis]

18. On CNN, Van Jones, Glo Borgia, Malika Henderson gave faint praise.

More or less, down the middle. Jennifer Granholm was more willing to point out how Trump is promising way more than he can deliver because he gave the giant tax break to the top 1%. Axelrod also more critical of the speech.

Rick Santorum earned his paycheck

The MSNBC crew, Maddow, and then later, Chris Matthews were much more critical.

[Cha]

19. Thanks.. it sounds like it

was worse than Awful.

And, there's this..

CNN Instant poll: Trump gets least positive reaction in at least 20 years

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=10167924

[oasis]

21. Kamala Harris in a 5 min. interview, said she wasn't

buying Trump's speech because of his history of lying. She was most impressive in that short time.

[Cha]

23. Very important to bring up trump's consistent

Lying. It's not normal. Somebody has to.. the US "media" doesn't.. while they're so busy trying to normalize him.

Sounds like his delivery was bad also.. anyone saying.. "he's the president" tonight? Like some did after his speech to congress?

[oasis]

24. Van Jones wasn't about to make that mistake again.

[Cha]

25. lol.. yes I was thinking of him.

[oasis]

26. "Bad delivery". Yes indeed.

Panelists on both CNN and MSNBC said the pace was too slow. Mainly because Trump would spit out once sentence at a time and wait for applause.

[Cha]

28. While leading the standing applause..

trump

lol.. this is what I've read.. I don't need to see it to imagine.. I've heard "like a trained seal"

Thanks for that.. I really appreciate your take on this.. I feel better.

trump is a loser on every level..

President Obama, however..

[oasis]

29. Stay strong Cha. Tough road ahead.

Good night.

[Cha]

30. G'night, oasis

Mahalo for the good advice.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

37. His clapping near the microphone made it even more annoying

Twitter had a field day:

https://www.thewrap.com/trump-claps-clapping-twitter-clapbacks/

I can't recall any president who clapped for himself at the SOTU.

[Cha]

39. Probably because no potus has been

such an idiotic narcissist.

THanks for the twitter feed, LLiPS

[SunSeeker]

34. LOL. Hell no. Most people were saying, "Is he STILL talking?"

[Cha]

35. Lol.. I saw that!

[Enoki33]

13. Looking forward to the fact checkers audit as the lies must have been multiple.

[Grammy23]

31. Fact checkers were quick to note that he was up to his old tricks.

His lies and misstatements were breathtaking, as usual. And he delivered the lines like he was stating the Gettysburg address. Not a hint of doubt in his voice. So anyone listening to him might get lulled into thinking “surely he isn’t lying.” Hate to break it to ya, but it was laced with lies from beginning to end.

Tomorrow, after the fact checkers have had enough time to enumerate the lies, the commentary should really get tRump’s dander up. Just the quick survey moments after the speech ended, there was plenty to note that were brazen lies. Wait until he reads the reviews of his performance tonight. Be prepared for a Twitter Meltdown of epic proportions. He thinks he hit it out of the ball park tonight.

[pressbox69]

14. They

had lots of company.

[oberliner]

38. Have you ever watched MSNBC before?
