Nicole Wallace is becoming unwatchable, especially with her fawning over Avenatti. Geez Nicole,

[monmouth4]

cool it..

[malaise]

1. Becoming?

It's a rare day I watch any part of her program - she is an avid supporter of the war criminal Bush and his goons.

[monmouth4]

3. I don't know if she's married or not but she has become like a silly teenager with her crush..n/t

[lunatica]

9. Married and has children

She’s a strange mixture of a smart woman with an unexplainable soft spot for Republicans and alpha males.

[Hortensis]

18. Not strange, corrupt. If you don't sing the required song,

you don't get on TV. There are a whole set of rules still in place for badmouthing Hillary, which lead to Nicole's almost signature, "Oh, is Comey being meeean to poor HIllary?" whenever that subject came up for months. She's been forced to step back from that one, but not from delivered bias.

The evening faces have more freedom, though not enough -- they also report on congress but almost never mention the dark-money people in the background who decide whether Repubs will be reelected or replaced. But the daytime people are kept on firm leashes on important subjects.

And Democrats are one of those Hillary-type subject. Anyone who imagines that because she's not a candidate the massive negative reporting on us has gone away is deluded. She was always a delivery system for what continues. Watch for the next time we're discussed without negative comments. If anything that might be considered positive is mentioned, the comment should overbalance with negative connotations.

[lunatica]

37. I agree with your points

To be honest I don’t watch Nicole Wallace. She hates Trump, which is nice but she actually gets all soft and doe eyed over the Bush family and people like Avenatti. She oozes her love for the Bush family, which is fine if you’re an unsophisticated young girl but not very appealing for an adult acquainted for decades with the DC swamp.

It’s not very convincing and she doesn’t offer enough for me to overlook that heartthrob thing she pushes.

Or maybe it reminds me of the kind of thing us old time feminists hated about the way women are expected to act in a field that has historically been a stronghold for men. Smile, act sweet, use a soft voice, bla, bla, bla and we’ll let you into our circle. She always makes me think of that.

[Hortensis]

39. Oh, I agree with that smile, act sweet crap.

Back in the '80s when I worked in insurance, I'd still see women with college degrees in good white collar jobs do a tilt-head-and-smile-prettily as they offered an apologetic explanation/request that they'd be away from the office for an hour, as if they were 1950s file clerks who needed permission. I can see why Wallace reminds you of that.

Another one here who never said, "I'm not a feminist, but..." I was.

[pnwmom]

33. Darn, I missed that. I like to watch Avenatti regardless of whose show he's on. n/t

[rockfordfile]

40. yeah she is a republican pos.

From same the right-wing pos that lied us into a war. Attempted to censor the Dixie Chicks and others.

[malaise]

41. Bingo

Forget at our peril

[brooklynite]

2. Why, then are you watching?

[elleng]

4. :thumbsup:

[monmouth4]

5. Had the channel on without supervision...n/t

[chillfactor]

6. Guess I am the odd one out here,,,,

but I enjoy watching Nicole's program every day. Much prefer her to Tapper. And she usually has some great guests on.

[tableturner]

29. I agree.

[pnwmom]

34. Agreed. Much better than that nasally Tapper. n/t

[kentuck]

38. I record her program.

I really like her show when she has Steve Schmidt on.

In my opinion, Nicolle is very watchable.

[tenderfoot]

7. I'm still scratching my head over her getting praise here.

She's right wing republican hack, regardless of her distaste for Trump. Same goes with Ana Navarro, Bill Kristol, etc...

[peggysue2]

8. Hahaha!

Nicolle does seem to enjoy having Avenatti on her show. And come on, he's not hard to look at and has more than a little confident charisma. Girls just want to have fun!

That being said, I actually enjoy the show, often coming away with a reverse deja vu sense of what a 180 a lot of these Republicans have made in their No, Never Trump position.

Which at this moment in time is quite okay with me.

As for Avenatti? He's easy on the eyes and his obvious distaste of all things Trumpster makes him even more attractive. Just saying.

[CTyankee]

15. I agree with you. I find Avenatti very attractive. And a manly guy...

I don't blame her as long as she keeps from simpering...

[peggysue2]

26. Simpering is a good word for it!

[jodymarie aimee]

10. I got a sister who laugh talks....and I cannot stand it...

Wallace can't stop laughing when she talks, nothing is funny...I love love it when someone on her panel just stares at her....it is a nervous tic saying PLEASE LIKE ME....can't watch 5 mins of her...

[Motley13]

11. Jake Tapper is way better

[pnwmom]

35. He's way better at talking through his nose. n/t

[Mike Nelson]

12. Hmmm...

...I did not detect any sexual attraction. I think she's just happy with his success in going after Trump. I watch her show... then come back for Ari Melber after an hour. They give a good indication of how Trump's day is going... down, I hope!

[Atman]

13. I enjoy her show, but I have to keep reminding myself...

She'll be sucking up to Mike Pence once Trump is removed. It's not hard to hate on Trump, but once the tide turns she'll hop right back onboard the GOP boat. Along with Steve Schmidt and the rest of 'em. They're just milking an easy payday.

[Raine]

32. EXACTLY! No one should be fooled

she and the others only hate Trump because they want President Pence.

[stevenleser]

44. Im not so sure. I dont think she and Schmidt are going back anytime soon.

I think the whole Palin fiasco opened their eyes as to how incompetent the GOP are at governing and picking people to govern. Unless the GOP goes back to nominating Eisenhower types, I think these two are lost to that party for good.

[OldHippieChick]

14. Oh now, I think

Avenatti is cuter than a bug's ear.

Actually I've seen men fawn over large-bosomed women and they do not get this derision. Goose/gander folks. Jis sayin'

[CTyankee]

19. My mother used that phrase about cuter than a bug's ear...I thought it was a Southern

expression. Or a Texas expression. I never hear it up here in CT...

[OldHippieChick]

20. I remember my grandmother using the phrase, but

we didn't live in the South. I think it's an old saying from the 19th century perhaps.

[peabody]

16. I like her show.

She’s lively and entertaining. I catch it whenever I can.

[redstateblues]

23. I like to hear Republicans that hate Trump

I do enjoy her show

[Kirk Lover]

17. Then don't watch. Not sure why there has to be a proclamation every time a news anchor says

something someone doesn't like.

[oasis]

21. As long as she unleashes Steve Schmidt on Trump

with regularity, she’s alright with me.

[Butterflylady]

30. That's become my part

When Steve goes after tRump one can see the outright anger in his face with steam coming out his ears. I love it.

[Vinca]

22. I like her show. Unwatchable is Tweety Matthews.

[peggysue2]

24. Matthews really has become

irritating as hell. I don't know why he bothers inviting guests on the show because he never lets them answer anything without interrupting. And then, adds nothing of consequence.

My husband and I go back and forth:

"Did you hear that Chris wrote a book about Bobby Kennedy?"

"Really," I'll answer. "I didn't know that."

And then we laugh because Matthews has only mentioned the book a bazillion times.

Pretty useless anymore.

[Vinca]

25. Are we married to the same man? LOL.

[peggysue2]

27. LOL!!

The script pretty much writes itself, doesn't it?

[Raine]

36. I used to hate watch him for a laugh but he's gotten so bad

he's not even worth watching for a laugh. He's nothing but a braying jack ass, the way he always yells out "HAH"!

[underthematrix]

28. Nicole Wallace right wing? Since when?

I catch her on other MSNBC shows and sometimes on her show. I think she's smart and a good interviewer. I love Avenatti.

[rockfordfile]

42. She worked in the Bushco administration

Every time I see a veteran with a loss leg or with PTSD, I can't help but remember those un-American GOP pos that sent them to Iraq for oil.

We are still in all this bs because of them.

[underthematrix]

43. Bush and Cheney lied us into a war. This doesn't make her right wing.

[Raine]

31. I've always found her unwatchable, I can't stand her

her whole agenda is to put Pence into the presidency.
