MSNBC - where not to get advice for a Dem win. Boycott or send stern letters [View all]

Can't believe they left Steve Schmidtt back on after his short sabbatical working for Howard Schultz.
While I will not boycott, as I do appreciate some of the reporters, Schmidtt is a step too far. And listening to him tell 'liberals' what they want or can have as a candidate is sickening.

Stern letters are in order.
Chuck Todd, are you still in charge of news there?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

Trump isn't a bug. Act_of_Reparation Nov 2019 #19

that is a ridiculous response. So maybe I should actually rethink my earlier qualifier to you. hlthe2b Nov 2019 #20

Good luck with that. Act_of_Reparation Nov 2019 #21

I am more concerned about Chuck Todd and his stunts than Schmidt. I think you are overreacting. hlthe2b Nov 2019 #3
