Morning Joe safe to watch today

Joe has day off.
Mika going after Bondi Trump story.

Will one bad decision by Hillary doom us all

Using a private email server...it's all the have...
But maybe all they need.

Every idiotic statement, devision. Lie, etc that trump makes is met by the media with a false equivalency to her emails....as if it somehow balances her and Trumps readiness and competence for the job.

We all know that is insanity.
But, that's what they have used to make this the horse race they so dearly want.
I am going to throw up now.

What issues other than immigration and trade

Does Trump ever talk about or care about?
Has he even issued any policy positions on his web site?

Why don't reporters EVER ask him for positions on anything else other than immigration?

Just imagine if Keith Olberman still

had a show.
What fun would he be having with Trump.
It's such a shame that Keith's great talent is often overshadowed by his inability to get along with his co-workers.

Mitt Romneys Big Decision

I've really been watching this situation fairly closely.
Been reading Utah papers.
Apparently, there is a lot of pressure on Romney to endorse the new guy, McMormon (sp?) or the Libertarian ticket.
Romney has said that if Weld were the Prez nominee, his decision would be easy.
He knows and really likes Weld. He's not so enamored with Gary Johnson.
One thing is certain. Romney loathes Trump and despises Clinton. So, neither of them are getting his magic underpants seal of approval.

Be VERY interesting to see what he does or if he just sits it out....like the Bushs are doing.
The clock is ticking , Mr.47%.....68 days and counting.

I fear the first debate reaction.

You can see it coming.
No matter how much more Presidential, knowledgable, mature, calm, poised,etc. that Hillary is, you know the media will (at best) call it a tie.
With their only goal being a tight horse race, they will not state the truth.

Donald could take a big flaming dump on the stage and Kellyanne would spin it into the sweetest smelling fertizlizer ever produced. And, the media lapdogs would take it all in with approval.

Of all people, Mika is first to tell the truth about Trump.

Yes, she did this after helping to create Trump in the primary.
Yes, she did it only after Trump called her a neurotic mess.
Yes, she did this only after Trumo threatened her publically about exposing details about her "supposed" romantic relationship with her co-host Joe.

Whatever her reason, on Tuesday mornings show at 6:23am eastern time, Mika couldn't take it anymore. She called everyone in the mainstream media out.
She said that he is, what everyone on this site knows, in no way qualified by any measurement to be Potus. It was a thing of beauty to finally have someone on the tv box say it.
To say what any thinking, rational, human knows.

I don't have a link to yesterday mornings show.
But, if someone could find it on Msnbcs web site and post a link, it is well worth watching.

***On edit - Well, it only lasted a day. Today (Wednesday) she said she's not so "emotional" today. And, she's all about Hillarys awful emails. Sigh.***

NBC Survey Monkey this morning

National weekly tracking poll announced on Morning Joe
Hillary 48
Trump 42
(She led by 8 last week. So, a 2 point drop)

It's 41-37 in four way race.

August 29, 2016

I want to see some reputable polls this week

that show Hillary with at least plus 8 nationally and plus 5 in battleground states.

August 28, 2016

Trump talking heads spouting that they are making big gains.

They didn't say which polls...only that Trump now trails by only 2 points nationally and that he has gone from 1% of black vote to 8%.
I haven't seen these polls. Have you?
