Okay - anybody on Morning Joe going to talk about the Newsweek article?

Or just more stuff about how great Joe is for "calling it" that this race is a tossup?

Press is always throwing hands up like, "How did it get this close? How come Hillary can't put him away?"

Then, "Hillary Clinton's got a lot of explaining to do. Did Hillary hurt her campaign. There's a problem with the optics...."

Forget talking about actual corruption and ties to foreign governments. Why would anyone care about that before deciding on who should lead our country?

so far...crickets.
Jesus, the idea that Trump could actually be elected is making me sick to my stomach.

And they were even discussing how Hillary is being held to a higher standard than Trump, who is being treated more like a side show. David Axelrod was stressing that Trump needs to be held to the same standard.

and, even Fox was running the headline about Hillary being treated unfairly in the media and were having a discussion on it. I have no idea what was being said, but the fact that they brought it up on air was interesting. (I did not have headphones to listen - just noticed it in passing by the screen...)

...Maureen Dowd came on and said Hillary is coming from a "dark place." She's plugging a book equating Trump and Hillary. Mika looked at the book eagerly.
