Sunday's Washington Post Magazine has a one-page "Just Asking" interview with MSNBC host Rachel Maddow. On the opposing page was an arty photo of Maddow in blue light (for the blue states)? Joe Heim started out with overt flattery:
You have a highly rated nightly news show, your new book, Blowout, was a bestseller and your podcast, Bag Man, just won an award. As a journalist, I find all of that success very annoying.
Ha! Points for honesty. Well done.
Why arent you exhausted?
I am! I am a catastrophe. Im [worried] I will have a herniated disc collapse while Im on the air. And Im only 46!
Then Heim asked Maddow if Trump has been the president she expected, and she gave the expected lecture:
Yeah, I think so. I didnt have much awareness of him as a public figure before he was running. But once he was running, given the sort of recurring dynamic in the campaign where his opponents and observers and the sort of graybeards of our democracy would identify a place where youre really not supposed to go, and as soon as that was identified, he would instantly go there I saw that as a template. And so I have sort of expected all along that there really isnt any line that you can draw in terms of hurting the country or defying the Constitution or defying norms and mores in terms of what we think our civic life is supposed to be. I cant imagine anything that Trump wouldnt do. It doesnt seem to me like theres a line that he wouldnt cross. And so, yeah, I think its just going to get worse and worse.

No alternative yet offered up to replace Trump indicates that in any way shall things get better. We are in rough seas, and casting the captain overboard is not the wisest of strategies. So far, Trump has steered INTO the storm, and shows every evidence this is the best course for long-term recovery, as the sea again calms down.
Going catty-wampus of the storm now is a sure way to capsize.
Did you read small print?
“Im [worried] I will have a herniated disc collapse while Im on the air”
She only said that to get Trump supporters to watch her “news” show.
Because “He” has been right all this time about Russian collusion and the Impeachment scam! Haha. I cant believe anyone pays any attention to “Him”.
The cabal against Trump will do everything possible to keep this going. They only wish for very bad things because of the Republican President. Under Obama,America was infested with disease: Bird,Swine,H1N1,Ebola etc and the media smoothed it all over. These are truly sick and depraved human scum people.
Additionally our health care system is in a major nat’l emergency mode in preparing for what is currently the unknown ...all are doing their part as I see it. And we know the length and severity of this virus varies depending on the overall health of the individual, which is usual with any virus.
However common sense and wisdom is not always possible for those who are fearful individuals anyway. And they also create unnecessary alarm by being so. Additionally foreigners here from 3rd world countries are often easily shaken because many bring with them supersititions etc. Their emotional makeup differs.
Yes indeed I did.
That's the problem right there, lesbian.
Americans go where they want. Eff the graybeards.
God bless President Trump.
Indeed the stores are proof of just how damned many idiots we have in this country,they don’t think they react like lemmings.
Your are completely correct on all points , and your tagline is also accurate
We can only hope that the majority of Americans see right through the deception at the media creates and all of the bull crap they throw at our wonderful president
Democrats are completely unaware of the concept of “shooting their wad” or “Peaking too early” or “firing both barrels”
It’s March. 8 months is like 3 “2020” years.
Yes, I can. But...I just watched a youtube from Czech Republic. All schools are closed, all restaurants are closed, public gatherings over 30 banned, etc. etc. you know the drill. They have over 300 cases and 0 deaths so far.
I can understand many people’s cynicism about press coverage of this. But the fact that many countries are taking extreme measures to curb the spread of this disease tells me that this truly is a big deal and will likely get much bigger here in the US and other nations over the next week or so.
I think national leaders are getting very seriously bad news about the Wuhan virus.
It is? How do you know that? You cant tell me the patient population. Jeez.
I think the national leaders here have better information than the European leaders can dream of having.
DUmmies better stock up on Kleenex!
She hopes it’ll get worse.
Who cares what the Madcow is mooing.
“”where his opponents and observers and the sort of graybeards of our democracy would identify a place where youre really not supposed to go, and as soon as that was identified, he would instantly go there I saw that as a template.””
Does an interpreter come with that? What did she say?
What can you expect from a delusional person who dresses like a man and believes in her mind that she is a man.
