tRump has made the switch to Rachel Maddow too???

It appears from tRump's tweet last night about Da Nang Dick (Blumenthal) getting under his skin questioning the truthfulness of Don Jr. on Rachel's show last night, that he's dumped Hannity and switched to watching Rachel. Hopefully he'll learn something now.

As much as I think I know about things, I love that she's always able to teach me something new. She's the ONE show that I can watch and always be a little bit smarter at the end of the hour.

Well... that, and "How the Universe Works".

like the poop he is in a week. We used to cancel each other's votes until she voted for President Obama's re-election.

We still watch Shepard Smith.

It was at the Provincetown airport at the tip of Cape Cod. I was there to see my elder daughter off back to her job in New York. Outside the door, I saw this very tall slender woman with dark short hair and thick black glasses coming towards the entrance. I thought to myself, "who does she think she is, Rachel Maddow?" Well, she had every right to think that because she WAS Rachel Maddow. She was there to visit with her parents, who were on a fishing trip. She stick out her hand and said, "Hi, I'm Rachel." Like I wouldn't have known!!

I had been after Howard Dean for about 5 years to introduce me to her. I told her that if she saw him before I did, to tell him that he was released from my demand!

A friend of mine was part of an MSNBC show a few years back called "the Cycle," and invited me to sit in the studio one time while they were doing their show. She showed me exactly where Rachel sat when she did her show, but I had to work that evening, and couldn't stick around.

She lays things out so neat and concise even he can see where things are going. Then go the other way or what to cover up/lie next. She is great..
