Idiot is ignoring the news cycle, and trying to divert attention from his awful numbers.

He's lost control of the news cycle. He's lost the momentum and now it'll be a constant onslaught of bad news etc., all brought on by his and his alone incompetence.

Tears of empathy and heartbreak for the people in that piece...
Tears of anger and rage at the person most responsible for this...
Tears of bewilderment that so many people STILL are voting or planning to vote for more of this...

I am still unable to visit my own dying mother, as she tries to recover from a compound ankle fracture and ongoing experimental cancer treatment (that is helping reduce and control her tumors, but the side effects are making quality of life an on-going discussion within my family) as we agonize over this on phone calls and video conferences but without holding on to a hand or a hug...

He disgusts me at a cellular level.

I got angry with NBC last week when they put Trump on opposite of Joe's town hall. I switched from MSNBC to CNN and I immediately started noticing this news anchor, and I believe I now have a new favorite anchor. Today when I first turned on the TV, I saw Chuck Todd's face, and immediately switched to CNN and saw this on opposite Chuck Todd. Brianna Keilar vs. Chuck Todd? Not a hard choice, sorry MSNBC, but while Todd is busy trying to breath life into the orange idiot this lady is calling out the lies and bullshit every time I see her.

We democrats ought to make an ad out of this video. She nailed the mood I have for his lies, as I am sure many others have. She's effective.

I was disappointed when she went on maternity leave and was gone so long.

She should be on in the evening, maybe take Cuomo's slot. But I suspect with a family she prefers the afternoon. I notice she's never on any of the round table panels at night.

If she WANTS to work nights (maybe she doesn't?), I'd love to see her in Cuomo's slot. It's not like he's horrible, but I often shake my head in disappointment over his rebuttals with guests.

When he is gone may the name Trump, if it be invoked at all, be uttered with heads lowered in shame at the disgusting memory of the worst presidency in the history of our nation.

And here's to a brighter future filled with renewed hope and healing for all of us.
