(7,863 posts)Because Joe/Mika/Andrea/Chuck and their ilk hated Hillary, they "sold" Trump, their party buddy, a bombastic tv personality, a know-nothing out-loud racist/antisemite conman as the "real deal"...they gave him a patina of legitimacy and a platform to spew his "only I can fix it"/"what have you got to lose"/"I know the best people" bullshit unchecked...so when Stephanie Ruhle gave insurrectionist Lauren Boebert, a fire breathing loudmouth white christian nationalist clown, a platform to vomit her dreck, it's no wonder so many have turned off cable news...

(206,199 posts)So, thanks. You can tell that Stephanie was a bit stressed dealing with Boebert, but she stuck to her guns (to turn a phrase) and handled Boebert as well as was possible. I'm not looking forward to a return appearance, she only sticks to her "talking points," but Stephanie did her job and left the door open. *sigh*

But she's getting her revenge now! She's also hogging the free TV time while she can.
