Michael Moore, Kathy Griffen and Bill Maher to be on MSNBC at midnight EST

Holy cow.

I think Rachel Maddow will also be sitting in. Tweety says they are looking for something a bit more "sparkling" and acerbic than the governor of Kentucky.

Indeed.

tonight. Or anyone with a pulse really.

The old Kentucky governor was about as dry as a damn furnace wind.

I hope it wasn't Perez because if it was his call he just fucked up.

'identity politics''' voice/voices of the party.

The ones who have told us over and over again that Trump voters were really just nice folks and if we had just talked to them about jobs (we did) they would forget they were a bunch of misogynistic racists and voted for Hillary.

For a more likely sane recap.... Oh boy. From the reactions so far it was coddled and praised , when by all logic, he's a halfwitted buffoon so any praise = fascist enabling.

Looking forward to it .

I like Moore more than I don't like him.

However, him continuing to say that Hillary should have showed up in Michigan and the rust belt more is turning my stomach, because behind the concept he has about Hillary neglecting the rust belt, he totally MISSES some key points.

MICHAEL PLEASE .....

You had voter suppression there off the CHAIN all across the rust belt.

Crosschecking, voter purging up to the eyeballs. Look at what happened in Wisconsin, Pa. and again in North Carolina where Hillary/Pres. Obama/FLOTUS lived and campaigned constantly. How was Hillary going to overcome crosschecking, voter suppression AND 800 polling places in Dem strongholds? She still lost NC by not a lot. Sam goes for Michigan and Wisconsin where thuglican Scott Walker aided by Koch brother money pulled that dummy Ron Johnson thorugh. Oddly though, Fiengold had a lead up until quite late over Johnson. Hillary had a lead over tRumputin until the day OF the election. FUNNY how that all worked out. Voter suppression, voter disenfranchisement, voter crosschecking, ruskie interference in ways we may never know about.

Crosscheck Removed 450K Voters in MI, 270 K in AZ and 590 K in NC!!

Crosscheck in action:

Trump victory margin in Michigan:
13,107 Michigan

Crosscheck purge list:449,922

Trump victory margin in Arizona:
85,257 Arizona

Crosscheck purge list: 270,824

Trump victory margin in North Carolina:
177,008
North Carolina Crosscheck purge list: 589,393

I didn't even mention Ohio and Florida, or about how hackable and outdated our voting machines ARE, and tRumputin is removing the laws keeping voting apparatus up to date:

House Republicans Just Voted to Eliminate the Only Federal Agency That Makes Sure Voting Machines Can’t Be Hacked.

https://www.thenation.com/article/house-republicans-just-voted-to-eliminate-the-only-federal-agency-that-makes-sure-voting-machines-cant-be-hacked/

Hillary and Pres. Obama and Michelle practically LIVED in North Carolina, yet there were 800 polling placed closed in Dem areas. How in HELL was Hillary going to overcome that? Even in Az Dem votes were taken purged.

I am extremely worried that in the 2018 and 2020 GE, that voter suppression, crosschecking, ruskie interference with a kkk session as AG will be SERIOUSLY OFF THE CHAIN, and HOW do Dems counter that? Early voting will all but be DONE away with. Souls to the Polls, done and gone for good.

HOW IN HELL will Dems overcome what will be much more voter suppression tRumputin DOJ and kkk AG sessions? How much will tRumputin allow the ruskies to interfere in 2018 and 2020? And, before someone says that if more people had turned out ....

rethugs would only have had to have voter suppressed, crosschecked, voter disenfranchised, purged MORE Dems off the voter rolls--keep up with what will BE a huge voter turnout in 2018. I'm hoping that the various high courts across this country will continue ruling on the merits of the LAW and not "for" a tRumputin DOJ and certainly not with an AG kkk sessions whose in bed with tRumputin and who like tRumputin will KEEP Dems from voting and from their votes COUNTING.

Michael, will you please mention voter suppression, voter disenfranchisement, voter crosschecking and voter purging sometime? Hillary barely came to California, yet we here showed up and showed OUT here. Same for many other blue states--except for the ones which were voter disenfranchised, voter suppressed, crosschecked and where 800 voting machines were CLOSED in Dem areas in a state which was BARELY lost to that clown in North Carolina.

Talk about HOW we overcome THAT ffs!

Acting like the elections in 2018 and 2020 will be "normal" in terms whether or not Dems CAN vote with confidence with a tRumputin DOJ and with a kkk Sessions AG is something YOU keep missing the point OF.

THANKS in advance.
