Oh, my!! I do not watch but am catching a few clips from twitter.

1. I was not involved in her hiring, but I'm such an airhead,

I probably would have anyway....

[DemocraticPatriot]

12. I watched much of that show this morning. Kristin did make some pushback,

against some things that the former GQP chair was saying....


Regardless, getting a little sick of seeing MTP hosting a bunch of Republican liars every Sunday morning--
let alone hiring a big one

[ProfessorGAC]

2. In Another Thread On McDaniel...

...there was some debate as to whether anyone would pay for this.
After seeing a live host say "Not my fault", I'm leaning hard toward someone will be launched over this.

6. Carrie whats-her-name ?

3. shitshow on stage number 3.....................................

4. Can't blame her for trying to distance herself

from that decision. Especially when there's so much else to blame her for.

[CrispyQ]

9. Am I the only one who thinks she's worse than the toad? -nt

[Xavier Breath]

10. From the comments I've seen here since she got the gig

we appear to be in good company.

[DemocraticPatriot]

13. Tough call---

in such a brief time.... but she's 'holding her own', so to speak

[RockRaven]

5. But also you are apparently powerless to keep her off your show...

What use are you exactly?

[Boomerproud]

7. I don't care.

[durablend]

8. Like others have said

It's not like there wasn't precedence for this (Megyn Kelly). Or is it like the kid looking for candy on the stove that he *has to* touch the burner again and again?

11. I was hard-pressed to find a time when I agree with Chuck Todd, but this is even a moment of clarity for him.

14. Sure, Jan

But it didn't stop you from being all smiles with your welcome for that traitor.

You can lie to yourself, but lying to anyone else renders you loathsome.

15. Ya? Who was involved with your hiring?

lol.

effing hack.

16. I learned so many quotes and phrases in my 30 year Navy career

One time, some stupid stuff some Sailor did got intensely "stupider". I will never forget what my Chief said; "Man, that kid has moved beyond turd-polishing. He's now got to convince people that it's OK to pick up that turd with your bare hands, as long as you grab it by the clean end."

That's how NBC's Monday is going.

17. What the hell were they thinking?

Are they gonna hire Peter Navarro as soon as he gets out of jail? After all, he will have a special perspective.

[Kid Berwyn]

18. The very definition of a modern colleague in journalism.

Think of the ratings, Kristen.
