So nice of MSNBC to donate 3 hours to FOX every weekday morning!

Uhuh. As one of Bush Sr.'s advisors said, people who support Trump are making moral and intellectual mistakes of massive proportions. Mika's sold out and gets to live with hers. I remember when she first joined the program and her feelings of leading a life of virtue and propriety were on constant display. They seem to be mostly gone, even if she doesn't admit it.

(10,419 posts)She used to offer an animated opinion (even if it was for appearances as counterbalance to Joe).
Now she sounds flat. Jet lag?

"Moral and ethical collapse" pretty much nails it.

Morning Joe is a panel of old white guys. Women and minorities are severely underrepresented.
When they refer to the average hardworking American voter, they ALWAYS mean blue-collar whites. It's their default 'standard' voter, as if the rest of us are anomalies.

(9,205 posts)Just had Trump supporters say the Clinton doesn't giveaway anything. Attacks on Hillary!
sarae
(3,284 posts)Her and Bill have given huge amounts over their lives, both financially and otherwise. There's no comparison between the Clintons and Trump.
sarae
(3,284 posts)It seems like they hate it when Clinton starts doing too well (or is it that they hate when any woman does too well?). Every time she starts getting ahead in the polls, they scramble to find reasons she doesn't 'deserve' it.
I'm so sick of them both.

(10,419 posts)J&M are talking him down over the PTSD issue. They're saying The Idiot's remarks were taken out of context. LO is throwing it back at them.
Mr. pig is a veteran and he is royally pissed over Trumpy's comment.
helpisontheway
(5,378 posts)said the election is not close. He said he gives Trump a 10% chance of winning. Joe says if he wins this state and this state and then add this Trump can win, right? One of the states Joe was trying to give Trump was PA and Jim V. basically said that was not gonna happen. He said PA polls always look good for Republicans during presidential elections.

(68,201 posts)Vandehei doesn't want to look like an idiot after this election is over. He has a reputation to stand by and live by. Joe's biggest qualification is that he is a disruptor of political realities and spins on it constantly.

(36,975 posts)There are always a couple of rational people in the room, trying to get them to see reality. But Joe just shouts them down.
