never mentions and never attacks. Indeed he has never called her by an insulting nickname?
I think he's afraid of her.

(16,786 posts)Rachel presents her segments in a manner that leaves the viewer informed, seeking more. She is intelligent, respectful of her guests, and is well liked.
That has to unnerve Trump to no end.

(16,254 posts)She gets into too much detail for him to follow.
She doesn't back down.

Fortunately she is a well known never Trumper, but she cheered on that illegal Iraq war and I don't plan to forget that. And I don't remember her condemning the birthers either.

(53,410 posts)they did their best to fool us.
Ill admit both seem to be decent people now, but they have to live with how far they were willing to go to win. Not voting for the person you promoted with all your might doesnt exactly translate well. They had already done the damage.
Yet I think they are mostly decent people who have a lot of intelligence and political knowledge. But they do come with that caveat.

Not picking on them, though, as the entire MSM was complicit in that circus and the McCarthyism that followed any criticism during that period.
and she does bring up her Bush connections a lot. I do like her delivery though. She has a soothing voice to me and with Chump in charge, this is important. She's calm, respectful, and rarely interrupts. We shall see if this changes with our next Dem President.

(3,462 posts)... so he gets to effectively choose his own opponents.
He won't go near Rachel, because she's WAY out of his league.
She'll chew him up and spit him out.
And he damn well knows it.
So he tries to pick fights with CNN instead.

kentuck
(111,104 posts)I knew that her ratings had gone to the very top when she was covering the Russia investigation.
And she exposed a lot.
Trump doesn't criticize her very much? He doesn't want her ratings to go even higher.
