Showing Original Post only (View all)Rachel Maddow joins colleagues in objecting to McDaniel for legitimizing Trump, attacking democracy - Rachel Maddow MSNBC [View all]
Rachel Maddow looks at the role that Ronna McDaniel played as chair of the Republican National Committee in taking someone who would otherwise be a fringe character in American politics, Donald Trump, and helping legitimize him with the authority of the Republican Party and then joining in his project to eject democracy as the American system of government, in favor of a strongman system led by Trump. - Aired on 03/25/2024.

Lawrence O'Donnell opened with much the same statement, it would be crazy to cross either of them!

The big difference was that it took his fellow Republicans to bring Nixon down, I'm still waiting...

Signed it. Thanks. We shouldn't have to ask media not to hire co-conspirators in any indictments.

I wonder as well. Knowing the hosts on MSNBC, I'm not at all surprised that they all objected vehemently

Lawrence O'Donnell led his show with a similar message, too. Apparently all the MSNBC hosts felt the same way:
