Their headline at the beginning of Nicole Wallace's show: Independents Reject Trump in New Hampshire. Good framing, not to mention true. Yesterday they interviewed more than one Biden voter. Imagine that!
Is the tide turning with a small slice of the corporate media?
Hate to ruin things by quoting Tapper at the same time on CNN, but basically he lead with Cheato's great unprecedented victory. Of course.

(20,256 posts)He is so in the tank for R's. But yeah, you make a really good point and that's why how poorly he did was perfectly encapsulated in MSNBC's headline.

(50,651 posts)In fact, I don't really watch him but have seen some clips of him calling out members of the GOP
senseandsensibility
(20,256 posts)and I've seen him hit Cheato pretty hard. But, overall, IMHO, he favors Rs. His usual attitude was pretty well summarized by how he characterized the NH results today.

(6,991 posts)Nimararta the clown is still going around saying that Pres. tRump and Pres. Biden are being investigated. Pres. Biden is under NO serious investigation and has ZERO indictments, and the jealous o Kamala hater keeps on bashing Kamala Harris stating that she'd be a disaster as president, and should make your skin crawl or some jealous clap trap she says about Kamala on the regular. God knows I don't care for that bunch over at CNN, but Dana Bash asked her "What has Kamala Harris done that's on par with what Donald Trump's done that would disqualify her from being president?" Nimarata of course side stepped the question, then again doubled down on Trump and Biden are under investigation, both are old, both ran the country into a depression yada, yada yada. I'm tired of that lying, worthless "There's no racism in America" reich-winged, racist troll who will more than likely endorse her "dear leader" who is now racially making fun of and mocking her clothing now And no, she won't get the nomination. She was done before she even ran for president, because her MAGA crew won't vote for her, "unless it's to clean their house" as one told my friend (white) who owns an Ace Hardware in Columbia SC. Other friends in SC (White) told me that they talk about her is PAST racist. They hate her, and are in love with, and would give their sorry racist lives for their lying, dictator, drug-addicted, rapist, mentally declining tRump.

(8,655 posts)There are several possibilities before convention time for that to happen. Don't believe me? Watch Glen Kirchner's recent video on this.

(7,773 posts)because something could haoen to Trump**. Not necessarily a legal something, but that is a possibility. So would stroking out be. Even should it happen after the convention, holding on that long puts her in an obvious position.

(8,724 posts)has threatened to revoke NBC's broadcast license might be a factor here.
Of course, he's said the same about CNN, perhaps the PTB there don't take Cheato's threat seriously.
If so, I think they're making a dreadful mistake.
senseandsensibility
(20,256 posts)Just want to make sure I'm understanding what you are saying.
thucythucy
(8,724 posts)I know!
As if that would ever happen....

I doubt that NBC cares about the threat, either. It's just more Trump blabber. There's little he can do to carry it out.
Bird Lady
(1,894 posts)Just more empty threats about something he knows nothing about. I am not that surprised
since he knows nothing about anything. He is a moron.

(20,256 posts)was a great strategy. Of course since it worked we don't hear anything about it, but can you imagine if he had won less than 50%?

(53,392 posts)Which would make it difficult for voters to select someone they really don't know. I checked 3 locations and Phillips did not have the same position on the ballot for each of them. Which would mean there would an exorbitant number of ballot position orders. Even if Phillips had position 9 on every ballot the other candidates could have different positions on other ballots.
That may have made it easier for voters to do a write-in for Biden.

senseandsensibility
(20,256 posts)Do you mind telling me where you heard/read that? I might want to quote it in the future.
Vinca
(50,867 posts)however, look up the actual primary votes. This year Biden got 79,455 in his write-in campaign. In 2012, Obama was on the ballot and got 49,080. You have to also remember that some Democratics crossed over to vote for Haley just to mess with Trump. Biden's support could be a few thousand more votes than he got.
