a blatant example of high level media people being compromised by their own self interests.

Mike VERY clearly was doing her best Andrea Mitchell routine on Hill, constantly negging her, and both of the kissing up to Trump until they fell out with him, then then completely changed their tunes.

I am looking at Morning Joe, what the hell does Mica mean about a woman being President of the US? [View all] akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 OP

I'd add Cleopatra (Egypt) and no_hypocrisy Sep 2024 #1

Thanks That's why I typed etc., there are lots more women leaders. Hilary would have been a fantastic akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #6

there have been very few directly elected women leaders of countries dsc Sep 2024 #2

I differ, women PMs or Presidents are democratically elected, eg, New Zealand, Barbados, etc. The system is akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #8

the key word is party dsc Sep 2024 #12

I differ again. British Commonwealth countries elect PMs, the ones who leave the Commonwealth, elect Presidents, eg akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #17

Canada is a Commonwealth country. On paper we elect the MP for our ridings. Swede Sep 2024 #28

I remember when Hillary was running in the primaries, and Mika's father said voting for her was like voting for Walleye Sep 2024 #3

Both Joe and Mika were against Hillary. I am not implying they caused her to lose. There was outside interference akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #10

I'm a feminist, when Hillary lost, I felt my whole life had been for nothing Walleye Sep 2024 #27

A technicality, but Clinton won the popular vote, lost the E College. nt allegorical oracle Sep 2024 #36

I cried my heart out, too. I was in total disbelief. dmr Sep 2024 #42

Golda Meir , Margaret Thatcher, Corazon Aquino, Angela Merkel tetedur Sep 2024 #4

I love Angela Merkel. Golda Meir not so much. Aquino was not effective. As for Thatcher, she was a despicable akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #11

I guess my point was not that I supported or admired these women presidents or prime ministers tetedur Sep 2024 #20

We are not looking for lame leaders anymore. This is the 2ist century, Trump is dogshit. VP Harris will be a akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #30

I guess the obvious--Golda Meir--has been lost to history? hlthe2b Sep 2024 #5

Golda Meir was mediocre. She could have made a difference to help the Palestinians get Statehood. akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #13

YOUR topic was female heads of state--your commentary is not germaine to your original post which offered no hlthe2b Sep 2024 #33

MEka hated Clinton and loved Trump in the 16 election SocialDemocrat61 Sep 2024 #7

You hit the nail on the head, I was disgusted with both of them. They did think trump would have given them some kind akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #14

The story I heard SocialDemocrat61 Sep 2024 #16

I cannot remember the details but the fact that they were trumpers on MSNBC, they should have been fired. Yes, akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #21

Her and Joe are pretty dumb. Don't know why they have a show. bullimiami Sep 2024 #9

I can say the same for most of the pundits on CNN and MSNBC. I dont look at CNN anymore. akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #15

Im about down to Lawrence only. bullimiami Sep 2024 #19

Me too re Lawrence. Rachel is better than Wagner in my opinion. akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #22

Far better. Give me Ali Velshi for that slot. yorkster Sep 2024 #25

I second your pick. I like him too. Ari Melber is a waste of time. nt akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #31

Yeah, TV has to appeal to the masses to survive... Think. Again. Sep 2024 #18

I so agree with you. However, as parents we need to let our children know that TV is fallacy. Not everything you see akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #24

Absolutely! Think. Again. Sep 2024 #29

I don't want to think that VP Harris will lose. For the sake of humanity and the world, she must win. I wish all the akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #32

Yes, but for-profit tv isn't the only way to keep kids comfortably occupied. Think. Again. Sep 2024 #34

Did Mika say something about there not yorkster Sep 2024 #26

I am paraphrasing, Mika wasn't sure if a woman can be elected as President of the US. akbacchus_BC Sep 2024 #35

Thx. yorkster Sep 2024 #38

turn it off. It is bad for your mental health. Voltaire2 Sep 2024 #37

That's not the show I watched today. Mika did nothing but champion Kamala and Clinton and the dem4decades Sep 2024 #39

When I was in high school back in the 70s (yikes) we had a running discussion Boomerproud Sep 2024 #40
