Padma October 14, 2016 Share October 14, 2016 Just caught Chris interviewing the older AA woman in Cleveland (local small business owner with bright yellow hair) who was chosen to introduce the President after writing the campaign to volunteer (for something). Chris asked what she was going to say and she said, "I don't know yet". It was about an hour away from the event and she seemed happy but relaxed. Maybe that's why they chose her. Personally, I would have been up all night memorizing my little "speech", revising and rewriting it, and probably still become tongue tied in the moment. I truly didn't understand her approach, but I guess they've figured out she'll be pleasant and unflappable and do a good job. (Probably prepping her during the hour, I guess.)

Padma October 14, 2016 Share October 14, 2016 He truly IS unhinged. I just saw Katie Tur outside Trump Tower talking about how yesterday, when the media walked in, it seemed his entire audience of thousands of supporters turned together and booed them. I saw a little of that at a Trump rally in August--several angry men yelling, "There goes the lying media!" whenever a reporter walked by. It was scary then, with just a handful of people. Can't imagine how vulnerable you'd feel with his vast audiences acting like that (maybe a feeling like you're back in Germany in the 30s, would be my guess.) In Greensboro today on MSNBC, he launched his defense. It is Bannon Bizarro World 101 (sadly cut off by Gloria Allred's press conference). It boiled down to: a conspiracy against him by international bankers etc + the media + the Clinton + the Wshington establishment, all bound together with shadowy globalist conspirators who want to bring him and his "movement" down because "we're taking on the establishment". Specifically, re: NYT. He said minority shareholder billionaire Carlos Slim bought a stake in the Times so they didn't go bankrupt. He said...this was incredible....that the NYT reporters "aren't journalists. They're corporate lobbyists" which explains why they're doing the bidding of Slim -- "a Mexican" who has also donated to the Clinton Foundation. Do you see how its all fitting together? Trump doesn't even KNOW any of these women, not even the one who reported on him for years for PEOPLE. (Though he did, once again, manage to insult her looks, as if she's too ugly for him to assault.) "Lock her up!" the crowd chants. I think they should change it to "Lock HIM up"--in a mental hospital for observation. He needs some serious help and is, imo, increasingly becoming a great danger to others. 17 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3523-msnbc-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-vaulted/page/44/#findComment-2651457

Cortes is now trying to pull Bill Clinton back into this, although he says he doesn't want to talk about it. Ugh. Earlier, MSNBC had a Republican strategist named Noelle on, and she was quite intelligent -- defending her party, but asking where are our women supposed to go?

I think the future media coverage will be dealing with a large number of unhappy pockets of Trump supporters -- but that GQ article unfairly targets Chuck Todd, who has been standing up to the falsehoods and innuendo in a great way lately. Chris Matthews *was* right that Trump had done better in the second debate; still highly problematic, but not the complete disaster of the first one. It's easy to convince Chris M and others of success when the bar is set so low that you can't see any space between it and the ground. Michael Steele just on "All In with Chris Hayes" -- "Welcome to my party!" after hearing Chris' litany of crazy statements from today. Just noting here for the record that all the Trump surrogates canceled on Joy's Saturday AM show, as she noted at the beginning of her show that day.

It’s interesting that folks have presented the facts that a historical analysis of modern elections reveals that only 31 cases of proven voter fraud has happened out of a pool of a billion votes. So where is the “rampant” voter fraud that Trump and the surrogates are basing their rallying call? It’s frustrating and scary that the right has adopted this “we don’t believe anyone who doesn’t believe what we believe” stance. Facts are facts and to elevate this preposterous thinking to the level of crisis mode to whip up their base serves no purpose. Climate change, voter fraud, polling data all fall into that category. Trump has revealed himself to be someone who feels if he can’t run the system he will break the system. Now that the writing is on the wall that he has a slim chance of winning (based on polls that he feels are “rigged”) his scorched earth campaign is focusing on riling up his base to set them up for the inevitable Trump TV that is coming. I wonder if that was the goal all along? I have long believed that he actually never wanted to be president but got in the race to elevate his brand. All of the crazy things he has said all along have been intentional with the secretive hopes that it will be the final straw to remove him from the primaries. But along the way he realized that he had a strong enough following and once he got the nomination he was stuck. He has systematically self-sabotaged his campaign. Now that it is likely he won’t win he is focusing on building his audience for Trump TV. The alliance with Brietbart and Ailes takes on a new clarity for his media aspirations.

Rachel on the Chris Matthews interview: "Can I say that was completely and utterly insane?" I have to say, kudos to Chris Wallace. I was very impressed to see an actual debate. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3523-msnbc-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-vaulted/page/44/#findComment-2666586
car54 October 20, 2016 Share October 20, 2016 I agree that Wallace did better than I expected--and he did call them on some incorrect things they said. I think it is ironic that the last straw for Trump may be the fact that he has said ahead of time that he may not accept the outcome. It's blowing up on social media. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3523-msnbc-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-vaulted/page/44/#findComment-2666623

stormy October 20, 2016 Share October 20, 2016 Chris Matthews has finally met his match. Rachel will not give him an inch so he can talk over her. He was practically foaming at the mouth having to wait for her to finish her point. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3523-msnbc-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-vaulted/page/44/#findComment-2666974

Padma October 20, 2016 Share October 20, 2016 I thought the visual after the debate was telling. Hillary went to Wallace, shaking his hand, then to her guests and others in the auditorium. Trump stayed at his podium and waited for his family to come to him, greeting them and they huddled around with him at the center. Finally, apparently realizing HRC was getting good coverage smiling and talking with people below, Trump shook Wallace's hand (something he didn't do at the end with Holt--which I thought he'd get blowback for but..of course, it's Trump so ... no) and moved down into the audience. You can tell he is not a "people person", despite what his fans apparently think. I did like Andrea this morning fact checking some of Trump's rally today in Ohio. She was up an at 'em after a 22 hour day yesterday (she looked pretty done in on that plane--while HIllary was radiant). She's very frail physically, and will be 70 in a week so, much as I'm normally no fan, I've got to give her some credit today. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3523-msnbc-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-vaulted/page/44/#findComment-2668201
Kemper October 20, 2016 Share October 20, 2016 I always loved Ali Velshi and am thrilled that he is going to be on MSNBC. I, too, have wondered (hoped, hoped) that maybe there will be a shake-up on MSNBC after the election. I can handle almost any of the talking heads except Joe and Meek-a....please, let them be the first to go. I can even take that awful Kelly-Ann because there is hope that maybe she has destroyed her "brand" by hitching her ride to the shambles that is the Trump campaign. I still have to wonder how Scarborough and his Mini-Me bobblehead wield so much power. Well,he seems to; she is the faithful sidekick. Today's yelling and accusing by him made me scream at hubby to turn the channel; he loves to get his morning started by yelling at Joe and Meek-a. "Elites"....Joe has elite envy. He so wants to be one...he lives in the right place, knows all the right people. But he will always be an arrogant, smug wanna-bee. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3523-msnbc-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-vaulted/page/44/#findComment-2668202

Medicine Crow October 20, 2016 Share October 20, 2016 One thing that stood out for me after the speeches last night was that Donald stayed on stage & waited for his family to surround him, while Hillary went to her family & invited guests. Donald just left his "invited guests" twisting in the wind on their own. I would have liked to see how they handled getting the brush off after he "used" them. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3523-msnbc-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-vaulted/page/44/#findComment-2668563
