I wish I could pick like 5 stations to get beyond those, but nooooo. Need to pay for a big package, so I just get local and pbs.

It'd be great to see those guys lives.

That is one of the reasons we don't subscribe to cable.

You get Fox News automatically, but you don't get MSNBC automatically at the low rate.

I don't want even the possibility of having Fox News in my house.

He's always donating to humanitarian causes. He just made $100 Million when he sold his tequila company this year and he's donating most of it. "George and Amal Clooney have announced a partnership with the Southern Poverty Law Center to combat 'bigotry and hate' in the wake of the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia." -(through the Clooney Foundation for Justice) The Guardian... I believe 1 Million is going to them.

I have to say I’m very impressed with Clooney’s humanitarian works.

Amtrak Joe might be a good candidate for these tumultuous times. Someone stable and known.

Can you imagine what people would come up with, ugh. Trump has tied everyone up in non-disclosures or I bet we’d hear tons of stuff.

if he feels that's what it might take to win and compete to get media attention .

but if roger stone can just pick out a few fan pics out of thousands clooney has taken through decades and get them to claim he squeezed them a bit too much or whatever it would end his chances if democrats respond as they did with franken.

you need to conjure up a victim scenario. I resisted the news of the Roger Stone connection at first, trying to believe Tweeden, but it was an obvious setup. And the Democrats fell for it. I'm still utterly disgusted with what they did to Franken.

After tonight's show, I'm looking at Clooney in a different light. I can see the potential Obama sees in him! Clooney's wife is a great match, too.

Actually made me feel good for awhile

He really should run against one of their monsters; course look what they turned the Clinton Foundation into

Seriously, though, do yourselves a favor and watch that show. Gotta be on msnbc or YouTube

It will lift you out of the trumpian morass, at least momentarily
