This week on MSNBC has been so exceedingly bizarre that it leads me to wonder if Brian Roberts, the CEO of Comcast, even watches the network he manages. The rhetoric on the network over the past year has been a consistent drumbeat of dog-whistling cries for someone to assassinate Donald Trump. Literally, as the assassination of Trump was happening on Saturday, a guest was on Jonathan Capehart’s program shouting that Donald Trump was a conman, a criminal, and a traitor.
The post-assassination coverage hasn’t been any better. Rachel Madow described JRR Tolkien as a favorite of the far right and alt-right when discussing the name of JD Vance’s VC firm. Joy Reid has continued to peddle conspiracy theories that Donald Trump was not actually shot. And Alex Wagner said JD Vance’s wish to be buried with his relatives is an “easter egg of white nationalism.”
But that’s not all. Watch:
And they talk about the right being unhinged. These people are obsessed with Donald Trump to the point that it is mind boggling. Do they think that the hate that they spew is what people want to hear? They need to go smell the grass.
I’m wondering how many incidents there have been that we haven’t heard about.
As for MSNBC nothing shocks me at this point. They don’t even try to hide their bias anymore and instead are just propaganda for the left.
