Watching Joy Reid's second hour of broadcast, she didn't let the bullsh*t just fly...

...as one of Trump's nastier and more condescending (and she called him condescending to his quivering face) surrogates—Peter Navarro tried to bogart the segment.

She stopped him from NOT answering the questions posed, called him out on being little more than a spinmeister and didn't allow him to buffalo the other guests.

Well done, Joy Ann!

until proven guilty in a court of law .... this is akin to how Anita Hill was attacked. or claiming that somebody is violating their First Am. rights. No one is charging him in a court of law . No one is threatening to put HIM in jail.

Next time hie throngs call for her to be locked up I guess he will calmly inform them that she has a right to be considered innocent ... yeah, not frickin' likely!

I wonder what these great legal minds thought / said about O.J. Simpson when he WAS in a court of law?

she wanted to stick to the first ten minutes of trump's speech, which was about the women

he then gishgalloped through a supplyside/protectionist screed, complete with confabulated statistics that nobody there was prepared to dispute. he was MOST obnoxious, as he always is

they should have had somebody moderately versed in economics, to take him on regarding his voodoo economic plan. here's an example:

She was 'I'm the host—I call the tune.”, he was “I am focusing on THESE talking points only and I don't appreciate you asking me stuff that doesn't allow for these to come out natural-sounding.”

He also pretty much said that E.J. Dionne—the only man on the panel—was the only one who understood him.

He was livid. Good!

always spouting voodoo econ dogma, in the most supercilious, aggressive manner

they never have anybody on who can go toe to toe with his gobbledeegook, which is a shame, cause it's all right wing dogma, unrooted in reality

did you go to the link I posted? it takes apart his wingnut BS point by point

nobody with any economic knowledge does

and yet we we had Laffer's ridiculous fantasy made the bulwark of an economic policy that helped DESTROY the backbone of our working class and accelerate the gap between rich and poor logarithmically

...sometimes über-confidence while presenting bullsh*t can make said said bullsh*t look like gold to those who know just enough to get themselves (us) in trouble.
