MSNBC's Clift: Dems Right to Refuse to Negotiate With GOP 'Terrorists'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/23/2019 7:30:40 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

What do you call Republicans who want 1/10th of 1% of the budget to be used to build a border wall? "Terrorists"—if you're MSNBC contributor Eleanor Clift, that is.

On Ari Melber's MSNBC show this evening, Clift, praising Dem refusal to negotiate over the shutdown, said:

"The Democrats are defending a principle here: that you don't negotiate with terrorists when they're holding hostages."

Crazy Eleanor Rodham Clift is still kicking around? Geez. I though she was long gone.

Number 1 - I’m surprised she is still out there. What happened to her eyes?

Question 1 - is she lucid?

There have been 21 shutdowns since 1976. How were any of them resolved if compromise = negotiating with terrorists?

I’m guessing each side assumes the other side is the terrorist. Somehow each ended. Guess someone negotiated with a terrorist.

20 years from now AOC will be considered mainstream.

Millenials are retaining their radical beliefs into their 30’s. And every day a few more of us shuffle off the mortal coil.

Who are those two corpses on either side of MSLSD moderator? Didn’t they used to be leftist rabble rousers when they were alive?

"What happened to her eyes?"

By coincidence, in the last couple of days, I've written about two 78-year old liberal women who have obviously had 'work' done: Clift, and Barbara Boxer.

Clift has always been a totally irrational ideologue and immune to actual facts.

That old crone is still alive? The only contribution she has made to society was to inspire hilarious SNL skits.

McLaughlin Group was so much better before she was added.

Her “points” were consistently asinine and lowered the overall discussion to her level.

Believing this document is now an “act of terrorism” https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/declaration-transcript

King George had similar feelings. I wonder which side Clift took then (I assume she covered that as a junior reporter).

Eleanor Clift is so vile she believes the Catholic students were chanting ‘build the wall’ and that a ‘smirk’ should be a crime. Facts don’t matter to the liars in the press...

I know this much: I will NEVER ACCEPT A DEMOCRAT PRESIDENT.

I want any democrat elected President to be investigated the whole time they’re in office.

I will work against that person.

I will spread lies about that person like they do about our man.

I will NEVER accept the vote of democrats... they lie, they commit fraud, they enlist thugs in ‘intelligence’...

I will NEVER accept the FBI as legitimate. I will NEVER accept a democrat as a legitimate President.
