Don't confuse being intelligent with being politically correct.

Nothing like a few insults to get attention, eh?

Those are my choices also.

@nicknotes Me, too!

I was a Bernie supporter also and I was very upset that Rachel and the MSNBC staff was pro Hillary and ignored Bernie. I think MSNBC believed Hillary was going to win and they stuck with her in the expectation that when she won they would have lots of access to her in the White House.
Another interesting point that received no publicity from the media.....A prominent former leader of a African American organization stated in an interview that Hillary's people were telling AA organizations that if she got the black vote the Clinton foundation would fund their organizations. As you remember in the initial primaries Hillary did very well against Bernie in Southern states [all red states] because the African Americans voted for Hillary.

It's unfortunate that you gave up a huge bag of ethics to vote for a monster because you didn't understand her investigation in Russian connections.

Thanks so much for helping inflict trump on us. People like you are the problem.

@Secretguy I see things a bit differently. Both Sanders and Trump ran on populist programs. In fact, Trump watched Sanders win many of the Rust-belt states against Hillary, and then in the general election he pitched Bernie's message back to the same people to win the same states -- and the presidency. I don't understand how so-called progressives can support the corporatist candidate HRC so enthusiastically. When people like the Bush family and many other Wall-Street Republicans and prominent Neo-Cons endorsed HRC, how can you vote for her? A populist outsider like Trump is much preferable to a Wall-Street and Deep-State agent like HRC. It's too bad you guys cannot think outside the parameters the corporate mass media give you.

@Secretguy, @JeLa, @nicknotes Nicknotes, I'll agree with you that the African-American vote put Trump in the White House by block-voting for HRC in the primaries.

I agree with Maddow on many issues however I can't stand to watch her. In my opinion she talks down to her audience. She says the same thing at least four or five times and I do not have the patience to listen to it. I am of average intelligence and got the point the first time. I quit watching her years ago therefore I did not know she showed preference for Hillary. I was a Bernie supporter but I could never have voted for Trump. Junior High Civics stopped me because I understand the way government works and it's obvious giving Trump the White House gave the Republicans a homerun on many of the issues they have coveted forever. Our systems work in a way that make party affiliation crucial.

@JeLa Your argument sounds like something I'd hear from a Bible thumper. Calling Trump "a monster" sounds like a thumper calling someone Satan... breaking complex things down to pure good and pure evil. And then you question a person's morality because they vote in a way you do not understand.

I can only surmise you know very little about Sean Hannity, Rachel Maddow, or both.

You can actually edit your post.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Rachel Maddow! She is very intelligent and honest - which is not to say she is infallible.

I started listening to her on Air America Radio back in '04 I think. I met her at the Seattle Pride parade when she was the grand marshal.

I DVR her show and watch it 2-3 times a week. If I had to choose only one show to watch for an entire year, it would be hers. She deserves the ratings and awards she has received.
