Why does MSNBC have that old Right-wing Trump sycophant spouting

[Baitball Blogger]

Trump's talking points. Horribly claims that there is nothing there to remove Trump, but Democrats have already made up their minds. Also claims that Biden should be investigated.

Why does MSNBC waste our time?

4. Why do you watch? Your remote control has buttons for mute, channel change, and off...

Have no idea who in particular you're referring to, as they have quite a large variety of guests.

5. Bob Barr is a racist extraordinaire. I'm OK with having them on as long as host kicks their ass.

6. I had been watching the hearing on abc yesterday and The View came on during the

break. Not a show I watch, and sure enough the rich Fox princesses were stating the same talking points. Later I was watching pbs newshour, and a conservative was also saying the same talking points. I turned off all msm after that.

Remember when someone did a voice over of all the anchors on Sinclair news stations stating the same talking points word for word. It was creepy and somewhat alarming. The republicans are all doing the same thing. It's like they all got more cards saying the same thing, and it becomes mantra to them.

I find it frightening.

11. Not a problem for me

The hosts knock them down as fast as the guests stand them up. Good to hear professionals do their jobs. If you don’t want to hear it, turn it off. Sirius has a full time talk show for an unalloyed Left perspective.

12. Why waste your time posting about someone you can't even name?

13. Why should I remember it if his POV disgusts me?

[SharonClark]

14. So people would know who you are talking about.

And including what he said that disgusts you would be helpful, too.

15. I'll accept that criticism.

I should have been more thorough. But it was the same talking points that you hear the Republican Congressmen making on their fleeing walks to and from Congress. In fact, down to the vowels and consonants. I think we are all in agreement that they are astroturfing the same talking points.

He went about talking about all the things that were discovered in the hearing and reached the opinion that nothing warranted impeachment, but Democrats have already made up their minds to impeach. That's what set my teeth a chatter and my fingers a typing. And I wish I had put more of the things he said into long-term memory.

It's just that he was allowed to establish himself as an authority before he spouted this FoxNews nonsense. That pissed me off.
