Ditto for Nicole Wallace.

In the end, they show their colors chasing bullshit.

At least on MSNBC I don't have to listen to Rump's idiot pundits. But at some point I can't take either one of them, and watch other channels or do something else, like read.

I do the same thing, flipping between MSNBC and CNN. Sometimes they're both so bad that I just turn the TV off.

They should probably include a punching bag with my next TV.

Saying they didn't do a full investigation. Uh "Joe the joke" that was just the interview they released. Do you understand it wasn't the full investigation. Do you think the fbi didn't do anything else other then interview her? Are you that stupid? Evidently not you have you head up your ...,. so far about this you won't even try to think? You rail on about her having her lawyers there? Uh Joe the joke that is allowed in the U.S. I hate to tell you you are not in some kind dictatorship country which allows the "extreme" questioning (I said extreme questioning. Just so you can understand. ) with out representation.



Edit: I wonder i Joe the morning Joke has submitted a resume or heard anything back from sending a resume to Trump News yet?

they mostly are bashing trump so it is tolerable.

But, the way the they gin themselves up into this super serious, forced outrage of Hillary, I just delete it and move on when I see that is their focus.

Is that what she is – worried? It sounds like faux "concern" to me.

Either saying what dipshit needs to do to become president and that Joke Joe doesn't understand why he isn't listening to them. Or dipshit's swapping back and forth about immigration. Not anything about the apparent bribe to the fla. ag. , the people he shafted not paying them, the people he brought in to his campaign, etc.. Everyday they have started the show with bashing Hillary for about a half hour and then take more random potshots at her during the rest of the show. Saying it doesn't look good but then not having any actual facts to back it up.

they get all serious and angry, but it is clearly forced, deep down they know they are forcing bullshit, but they over compensate trying to gin up these things with Hillary.

and he is now Governor, the current AG is fighting several criminal matters right now and was elected after being indicted. Welcome to Texas.

We're preparing to move to Oregon by the end of next year. Sooner if possible.

why aren't they covering the real pay-for-play going on? Why are they spending so much time being "concerned" with Clinton's trivial email bullshit, when she's running against an actual CRIMINAL.
