I Can't Believe That MSNBC Interupts Bernie's Town Hall With Breaking News About Repugs &....

Trump. Whatever motivated them to break in. That was news that was publicized all day. It wasn't breaking. Couldn't they wait unit the break between Bernie's town hall and Hillary's town hall? I bet they won't break into Hillary's town hall.

Bernie was burning it up in this town hall. He was controlling the moderator and was really handling the questions - probably the best I've heard him. I guess MSM can't let that happen.

The kind of stuff that happens.

Rather than risking a heart attack, I didn't even bother turning the Boob Tube on. I knew if things went smoothly, I could watch the important parts on social media.

And if it blew up, due to how the MSNBC bought and paid for whore TV programmers set it up, I don't have a coronary.

It was after a commercial break. Obviously the Town Hall was waiting until the commercial break was over. It wasn't a "break in" in that it was un-scheduled.
