So Rachel is "flabbergasted" by tRump's Taiwan call

[SHRED]

Maybe some of that flabbergast should have wiped the smiles off her and her colleagues faces at MSNBC that they had when tRump was selected?

I'm so fucking sick of this shit.
MSNBC and the rest of them devoted how much airtime to that Orange Anus?

1. In fairness,

Rachel Maddow was shaken on election night. She went after Trump consistently during the election.

[SHRED]

3. I saw her smiling

[BeyondGeography]

8. I saw her smiling thru the tears

She was rattled.

[Dem2]

9. That's oblivious and prejudicial perspective

She had tears in her eyes for several shows after the election. Imagine being in her shoes. Wake up.

[madaboutharry]

10. She smiles when she's nervous.

It's a weird tick she has. She was unhappy.

[HipChick]

2. Have not watched her since the Election night..

They only have their selves to blame...

[elleng]

4. Haven't watched them for months.

The Polar Express now.

5. I think your understanding of the mood on the set that night is dead wrong

They looked horrified as the returns were coming in making it clear that Trump was going to win. It was as if a dear friend was just murdered off screen while we watched.

6. Maddow does not support republicans

[SHRED]

7. This Presidency still be great for her

$$$$$$$$$$&$&&

[bigtree]

11. get a clue

...few can hold a candle to her on commitment to progressive issues.

You're take on her is full of it.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

13. Indeed

[SHRED]

15. I trust no one in the M$M

How many segments has she done on global warming?

Or is that not approved by her owners?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

12. She's not responsible for your cynicism

Rachel has been great in her role about keeping us informed and being professional about it

[Raster]

14. I like Rachael, Chris Hayes and Lawrence...

...I think the three of them are just as horrified as we are.

Don't get me wrong, the M$M created and fed this beast.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

16. Yes, many did but many were great

And Rachel is one of them. As are the wapo journalist and some in the nytimes.

[Laurian]

17. I wish she had used whatever influence she had at MSNBC

to reduce the overblown coverage of Trump during the election cycle. I haven't watched any cable (or other television) news since the election. I think the entire industry let the country down on this one.

[sarcasmo]

18. Exactly. Corporate media bosses made billions off the orange monster.

[world wide wally]

19. My pet peeve about their coverage of Trump was how they would cut to a portion of his speech

In the middle of her, or anybody else's show just to show him lying through his teeth. Then they would return to the show, and no one, Rachel included, would point out the lies he just told. They were quite often about Hillary on top of it.
So they all sucked.

[Cha]

20. I don't watch.. but not sure from what I've heard here that Rachel can

be included.

I Rec it though.. for the rest of msnbc that was a big part of the m$m that took part in what you said.

[bdamomma]

21. Here is the story from Raw Story

http://www.rawstory.com/2016/12/president-elect-trump-in-break-with-practice-speaks-to-taiwans-leader/

read this he is rattling the world community.

I haven't listened to Rachel either she should be independent I like her though, but I do not want to give extra ratings to MSNBC.

22. I was watching msnbc when Trump won and Rachel was holding back tears. I remember my

husband and I commenting on how upset she looked. I was crying and she was trying hard NOT to cry.
