Fuck you Halperin

[piechartking]

False equivalencing again on Morning Joe.

Joe is actually right, Clinton's problem is only stylistic.

[Adrahil]

1. I just saw that too....

Is he fucking NUTS!?

I feel like I'm in Bizarro Land!

[stopbush]

2. Would that be Mark "Obama is a dick" Halperin?

[vlyons]

3. Joe admitted that Clinton held to a different standard

Trump given much easier softballs. No one expects Trump to know any policy stuff, so news rarely ask or follow up with meaningful questions.

[sinkingfeeling]

20. I expect the nominees of the 2 main political parties to know

the 'political stuff' in order to run for President.

[rock]

29. In fact, if you can believe it

Donald Trump is making the Republican party look bad.

[uponit7771]

24. +1, so did Mika the other day... they're NORMALIZING disparate treatment... fuckin assholes

[Skidmore]

4. Add Barnacle to that.

I only tuned into the show this morning to get their reaction. After about five minutes, I remembered why I quit watching years ago. Good grief, a tired roster of old neocon supply-side apologists. Kinda sad when Geist sounds like the team member with gravitas.

[OldHippieChick]

10. In fairness, Barnacle did call Trump

"Bozo the clown"

[Funtatlaguy]

11. Barnacle graded Hillary a B-

And Trump an F.

[StrictlyRockers]

5. "They both showed their limitations"???

WTF is he babbling about? He's revealing his limitations! STFU you ninny.

[NewJeffCT]

23. Trump's limitation is that he's completely unqualified to run even a hot dog stand

Hillary's limitation is that she's not a gifted speaker like her husband or Barack Obama.

[OnDoutside]

6. Nothing bar Hillary in chains will make this f**ker happy.

[jeanmarc]

7. More about the fuarking emails.

Morning Joe is a stuttering mess. I can't take Mika seriously because she's sleeping with Joe Scarborough and instead of talking about the bribe of the Florida AG, we are STILL talking about the god damned emails. The truth is the show makes really bad choices for what to talk about. Scarborough needs to be punched in the nose about his content choices. Figuratively.

[uponit7771]

25. +1, this should be a day to day drip on the Florida AG !!

[OnDoutside]

8. Seems like the latest Demand, after demanding Clinton does pressers, is to submit herself, to them,

for a 30 minute grilling on the email "scandal". FFS.

[duncang]

13. And that would only be acceptable to them

If she said exactly what they want her to say. She did a telephone interview with them and afterward they still weren't satisfied. Each time including this morning joe the morning joke is saying Hillary has to say this. Hey, joe the joke you got to ask questions. You don't get to dictate what she answers.

[Cosmocat]

18. She has to "run out the clock on the e-mails"

is what Mika said ...

THIS is the kind of bullshit they do, demanding her to do the things they slam her on.

[oasis]

9. Halperin has to be auditioning for a job with Judicial Watch.

He won't be satisfied until Hillary appears before the American public in sack cloth and ashes.

[jeanmarc]

12. Morning Joe kissed Trump's ass...

...and because he's calling Joe and Mika names on Twitter, they stopped kissing ass, but they're still faking it with the email stuff. Have to look impartial. It's not working.

Morning Joe sucks. There are loads of stories on Trump.

[oasis]

16. No mention yet about the Colin Powell e-mail revelations. We're well

over an hour into the show.

[Funtatlaguy]

14. They are teeing it up for Gary Johnsons interview later this morning.

Johnson will be on Morning Joe this morning.
Imagine that.
I think Repubs and their sympathizes fully realize that Johnsnson must be on the debate
stage to help Trump eat up some time.
Otherwise, Hillary will eviscerate Trump in a one on one 90 minute debate with no breaks.
Johnson has to hit an avg of 15% in these five polls:
Abc, NBC, cbs, fox, cnn.
At last check, he was at only 10%.
Would not be surprised if conservatives are told to start lying to pollsters that they support Johnson and not Trump to get Johnson to 15%
But, the clock is ticking with debate on 9/26.

[oasis]

19. Johnson just became toast. He had to ask "What is Aleppo?"

of the Morning Joe team.

[tavernier]

15. I thought Joe confronted Halperin pretty well.

Maybe Mika does have a little influence.

Halperin can't see an inch beyond his hatred of the Clintons. He shouldn't be on any political discussion forums.

[vlyons]

27. Halperin is an arrogant little snot

Always giving Trump advice on how he can "look better."

[leftynyc]

17. I saw him do that this morning

So freeking sick of the magical balance fairy nonsense. Halperin works my last nerve as he's among the worst for this crap.

[sinkingfeeling]

21. Why do you watch the crappie fake news shows and give them ratings?

[piechartking]

22. I like MSNBC - yeah I hate it when they get holier-than-thou

with the false equivalency, but I do enjoy banter.

CNN is so clinical to me, and we don't need to talk about Fox.

[One of the 99]

26. Halprick is a RW shill

and always has been.

[BlueInPhilly]

28. Style can be changed and refined

and HRC is a willing student.

Substance, on the other hand, cannot, especially if you have a very tiny brain to begin with.

So let's have a swimsuit competition next time.
