Same as I did this morning when they showed the chump.

Why they make their viewers livid by doing so, I'll never understand.

If you're looking for a cheerleader or an echo chamber, tune to Fox. That's not what MSNBC does. It does journalism. It has, through NBC News, a long history of journalism. Much much longer than Fox. Journalism means you won't like everything you read or hear. Journalism reports the full story. Fox does not. That's why Fox viewers are so ignorant. Read the New York Times and Washington Post and/or listen to news sources like NBC and CBS are much better ways to spend one's time.

If she was an honest journalist she’d have said “former President”.

You know what they say about opinions right...everyone has one. Your and mine are different. We owe Trump nothing. He is a disgrace and should not be called president. And he is not the president. He should be called Mr. Trump and/ or referred to as the former president

WHAT other criminal defendant gets to do that?

They should not televise any of his bluster. Take notes and publish and if people want to read what he said, that's enough. Why give this big stinking criminal ass a platform?

for the "old crow" bit. Her age doesn't matter- it is her complete lack of fair reporting that does it for us. And Katy Tur is not far behind. I just wish Nicole Wallace was on longer.

But she garbled her words more than once when I did. I mean, talk about Biden.

While it is acceptable to address him as "President Trump," it is not acceptable to refer to him as the president. There is only one president!
