Morning Joe

Vice President Kamala Harris announced her running mate pick, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D), on Tuesday morning. MSNBC’s Morning Joe wasted no time in showering praise on the Governor for his apparently numerous positive qualities, insisting he would help secure the win for the Harris campaign with a “twinkle in his eye.”

Eugene Robinson agrees with Mike Barnicle that Trump is "deeply damaged," adding that he is "dangerous," "not a well man," and has "some deep insecurity and feeling of inadequacy."

Calling Donald Trump racist and sexist is getting rather shopworn. Needing some fresh material, Morning Joe broke out a new attack line on Trump today, calling him "a badly-damaged, deeply-damaged man." Mike Barnicle was the first to float the new line, saying: "What we saw yesterday is just another exhibit of a badly damaged man on stage." Charlie Sykes echoed "deeply damaged,"…

It was a tale of two networks on CNN and MSNBC in their 6 am hours today. CNN This Morning devoted a long opening segment to the strike that reportedly killed Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran. Meanwhile, over on Morning Joe, Joe and Mika might be on vacation, but under the baton of Jonathan Lemire, that same crucial opening segment was all about "cat ladies," "weird,"…

On Tuesday, MSNBC Morning Joe hosted liberal commentators Molly Jong-Fast and Donny Deutsch and gave the former the floor to suggest that Senator and Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance was “racist” and wanted “more white Children.” But in reality, Vance was in an interracial marriage and had three biracial children.

Somebody might want to run an AI analysis of Eugene Robinson's current Washington Post column: "No, really, Republicans are getting weirder." It'd be interesting to see if it were written in the style of Kamala Harris speechwriters, or some other member of her campaign. He threw the W-word eight times in his column and six times on MSNBC today.

On Morning Joe, they freaked out over Donald Trump joking to Christians they won't need to vote in four years because "we'll have it fixed." Al Sharpton suggested that Trump is planning to eliminate early voting and drop boxes, which would mean that "voting will not matter."

Before Joe Biden’s incoherent debate performance, the media airwaves were full of praise for Biden’s “enormously consequential” and “extraordinarily successful” presidency.

Morning Joe hypes a clip of a staged phone call in which Barack and Michelle Obama call Kamala Harris to endorse her. Jonathan Lemire dismisses as "nonsensical" reports that the Obamas lacked confidence in Harris.

Morning Joe oozes with excitement over Kamala Harris as the Democrat presidential nominee. Eugene Robinson caps it by saying that the feeling among Dems is that Kamala can not just beat Trump, she can "slam" him. There was much excitement over Kamala's fundraising haul since Biden's exit. Scarborough literally poor-mouthed himself, saying that as "a poor country lawyer," he can't even…

Once Joe Biden knuckled under to tremendous pressure to drop out of the race, Biden's advisers went out to proclaim he was like...George Washington? That was former Newsweek editor, "historian" and Biden speechwriter Jon Meacham on Monday's Morning Joe.

On Morning Joe, lamenting Biden's departure from the race, Mika Brzezinski three times extols his "touch." For millions of Americans, a mention of Biden's "touch" brings to mind unsettling images.  Joe Scarborough speaks of the Democratic establishment having repeatedly "shit" on Biden.

It's a sign of how well things are going for Donald Trump that instead of going after the man they most love to hate, Wedneday's Morning Joe spent most of the opening segment attacking the woman who endorsed him last night: Nikki Haley. The show opened with a clip of Stephen Colbert imagining Haley saying that she hates herself for endorsing Trump.  

On Morning Joe, MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire warns the MSM not to report Donald Trump's softer new tone. Says Lemire: "I do think we need a moratorium here in the media about Donald Trump's -- praising Donald Trump's new tone. That doesn't ever happen on this show, mind you."
