Holy Shit, I Took A Peek At SmirCONish

Big mistake on my part. Carrying TFG’s water & Hunter Biden bullshit, & his poll is about aliens. Flipped over to MSNBC, what a contrast in coverage. Much better. Just sayin.’

Edited to add, sometimes I check in real time. CNN and MSNBC and MSNBC is always better. Might not be perfect but nothing is.

His experience in the senate and overall knowledge are educational and he's entertaining as well.

posing as a moderate for marketing purposes. He noticed some years back that the market for right wing screamers had become saturated so he moved his brand more to the center.

Watched once, years ago. He was talking to Laffer, of the Laffer Curve. Laffer explained we just had to wait a while for the tax cuts for the rich would fix our economy. Smerconish did not bother to ask Laffer how much longer it would take for trickle-down to pay for the debt accrued during the Reagan administration. Have not watched that dufus' show since.

Watched him once years ago and that was enough.

He gives off a slimy creepy vibe.

He belongs on Fox with the rest of the gutless liars.

They have no integrity.

They worship money and power.

I don't give a flying fuck what any of them have to say.

I was housecleaning while Smerconish was on, but I heard nothing untrue.

All the defensive talk of Hunter. He traded on his last name. He’s a drug addict but that doesn’t excuse everything. I think President Biden is a great father, but my support for him does not extend to Hunter who is a piece of crap in my book.

He was a cynical snarky mean Motherfucker and a bad go-getter. He patterned his sneer after Bob Novak’s and he somehow made it work for him nationally. Trump is the best thing that ever happened to him since he can now play both sides.
