"Democrats try to score points" but "republicans highlighted the president's focus"

Ugh. After watching the delightful Nicole Wallace, an insufferable drone Chuck Todd is on, and Garrett what’s his name just fits right in. Garrett describes the Barr hearing with the typical subtle bias.. combined with chipper Pete Davidson who is much more professional and smooth in presenting an equally tilted field (but invisibly tilted, he is so much more subtle like the mockingbird pros).

Regarding the Barr hearing, Chuck is a pretzel in describing how Barr “didn’t go very far out of his way to appear nonpartisan” (how many negatives there?) and then they discuss how there are too many issues that have built up for the Democrats, so the democrats couldn’t really focus and all they could do was “try to score points”. But the Republican congressmen asked questions that allowed Barr to “highlight the president’s focus on” violent protests or unrest in cities like Portland. Then an intelligence professional told chuck that morale was lower than he had ever seen it at the agency he has spent his career at, and all chuck says is “Uh”. And moves on. Can’t figure out a way to slam the Dems with that comment, so he moves on.

Shifts to a question again of his guest, and then suddenly they have just broken live to trump conference with absolutely zero warning.

He is so incompetent.

That's something shithole does. As for house republicans, no wonder RNC isn't sending much money them, they were awful - Did not care about the general public . .
