On Wednesday's CNN This Morning, host Kasie Hunt and international anchor Max Foster fretted that former Governor Mike Huckabee (R-AR) has been too pro-Israel to the point of being controversial as the two discussed President-elect Donald Trump nominating him to be ambassador to Israel.

Donald Trump. He’s back. After the most dramatic election cycle in modern American history, Trump has won a sweeping victory, moving every single state in America in his direction from 2020. He didn’t just sweep the swing states. He only lost New Jersey by five points. He won Miami-Dade County in Florida -- the first Republican presidential candidate to win the county since George H.W. Bush in…

Appearing as a guest on Friday's The 11th Hour, MSNBC contributor Eddie Glaude charged that racism was the real reason Donald Trump was reelected President and raged over fellow liberals implicating economic issues instead. The race-obsessed analyst even tied in Trump supporters allegedly finding it "confusing" to see "racially ambiguous children on Cheerios commercials."

On the night of the election, a member of the Trump team called me about an hour after polls had begun to close to tell me they saw signs of a win. A few hours later, a friend close to the Harris team called to tell me senior members of the campaign had begun advising senior Democrats they saw no path forward for Kamala Harris. A few hours later, Donald Trump crossed the threshold of 270…

CBS News was largely dominated late Tuesday into Wednesday by out-of-touch, elitist tongue lashings toward Trump voters as too stupid to understand how the economy works, ABC News had takes of their own that, surprisingly, grew largely more and more sensible as the night wore on, creating a remarkable turn for a few hours by the network with the horribly biased and hostile newscasts, Good…

Amazon pulled Brian Williams out of media exile on Tuesday to helm their election night coverage and when it became clear that Donald Trump would win, he proved not much has changed since his MSNBC days.

On PBS News Weekend, only a few days before the presidential election, anchor John Yang harped constantly on social issues in order to cast Republicans, specifically Trump supporters, as extremists.

On Morning Joe, reacting to Trump having called America a "garbage can for the world," Joe Scarborough breaks out a variation on America, love it or leave it. He says: "If anybody believes that America is a garbage can, that's voting this election, they're just stupid. They just don't know the facts. They may want to move somewhere else if they think it's such a hellhole."

Joe Scarborough consistently claims to be a conservative, and on today's Morning Joe even described himself as a follower of Russell Kirk, author of The Conservative Mind. Calling her a "real conservative," Scarborough lavishly praised Liz Cheney for endorsing Kamala Harris. The question arises: if Liz Cheney had somehow won the Republican nomination, would Scarborough be supporting…

On Morning Joe, Jon Meacham says that in their hearts, traditional Republicans know that their support of Trump is wrong.
