I had a feeling it was not going to very complimentary towards Trump and 5 min in it looks like I was right. This might strike a nerve and I want to know what exactly Trump is bitching about tomorrow if/when he whines about this. Besides, to me it looks like a coordinated attack on Trump has begun. There is a way to bring him down and once we find the sweet spot its over for him.

Just long enough to confirm that it's yet another blowjob treatment of a right-wing politician by Matthews---Dubya looked hot in that flight suit, Reagan drank scotch with Tip, etc. etc. etc. He ought to take his little clown show over to Fox, where it belongs.

Honestly it could be any old school businessman who took advantage of inherited money, corporate contacts, 1% tax breaks, illegal workers, etc. You know, all that stuff that makes America great.

I find it pretty unsettling that MSNBC created a program where the people doing commentary are Omarosa and Coulter.
