Andrea Mitchell is toeing the Trump line....

[PCIntern]

I just ate lunch and I’m finding myself heaving. I’m sputterringly mad

She said that if the President (sic) has his way, the trial will be moved to West Virginia.

What kind of phraseology is that?

She is beyond unbelievable. I wonder what’s going on There. This is beyond the pale.

[Ocelot II]

1. "If he has his way" is the qualifier. Andrew Weissmann explained that he won't.

I think a lot of the time her questions and comments aren't so much biased as clumsy and inartful. I kind of block her out. The panel is a good one.

[PCIntern]

3. It is a good panel

Her statement is one of presumption of success. It’d be like saying “if my boss has his way, we will be working remotely only for the next three months.” The Assumption is that it’s 7/8 of the way there already.

[Hekate]

21. She gets good panels -- but I cannot stand listening to her in between. She's truly awful.

Fortunately, her panelists usually show up later in the day

[onetexan]

30. i think it's a combo of both, plus the fact she is past her prime & needs to retire. Her speech is

labored and her interview skills abominable. Chris Coons put her in her place the other day and while she apologized she did make an "in my defense" retort. MSNBC really needs to replace her - maybe put Preet Bharara there. Would love for him to have a timeslot on the network.

2. I imagine there's gonna be all kinds of demands

And delays but I’m hoping they’re put to rest quickly as it’s a game for tfg but very serious for this country

4. She's working on my last good nerve.

Earlier she showed a trump ad criticizing Biden and she asked Jen Psaki to comment. Jen pointed out the lies but AM chirped in with “but he fell down the steps.” Good grief.

[LiberalFighter]

5. Make her walk down a flight of stairs.

[LenaBaby61]

13. Mrs. Greenspan had the nerve to call Pres. Biden too old a while back.

She's only 3 years younger than Pres. Biden. I guess the old hag thinks that she and tRaitor tRump are as young and as beautiful as a speckled pups. She's WELL past her sell date. I'm surprised she hasn't gone back to criticizing Hillary for something or another

[obamanut2012]

23. Her name is not MRS GREENSPAN -- I am so sick of this sexist language about her

And other women on here. It should start being bannable.

Her name is Andrea Mitchell.

Oh, I just noticed you also called her an "old hag." Wtf

[Disaffected]

28. Heh, when I read this post I thought

that a caustic comment would soon follow. Scrolled to the first reply and there it was.

[patphil]

6. Joe Biden is President, and his "way" is to stay out of DOJ business.

So his "way" would be that the trial stays where DOJ intends to be; where the crimes happened, in the District of Colombia.

[LAS14]

7. Sorry, I don't understand this post.

Isn't she just making a comment about her understanding of Trump's strategy?

[AZSkiffyGeek]

11. Apparently the mere mention of TFG is bad

All news is supposed to ignore him or they're in cahoots or something?

[Celerity]

15. I think the OP is upset that Mitchell did not call him the FORMER President nt

[PCIntern]

18. Not exactly...

The OP was pointing out that Trump is still in command of…everything. In this case, he, if he “gets his way”, will not stand trial in DC. Is he now in charge of his own trial for …sedition? Was Judge Ito reporting to OJ? I mean really…😵‍💫

[Celerity]

20. fair enough

[Celerity]

14. I DETEST Mitchell but saying 'if I could, I would reach through my laptop and punch her in the face'

is problematic on multiple levels IMHO.

[obamanut2012]

24. Posters are also calling her an old hag and Mrs Greenspan

JFC

[LenaBaby61]

17. A friend on twitter told me yesterday that she compared Hunter Biden's plea deal ....

to what's going on with tRaitor tRump. One of her guests said aloud that there's no way to compare the two situations, as Donald Trump tried to overthrow a free and fair election that he lost, he plotted a coup and started an insurrection and he continues to lie about everything. The twitter friend said that Mrs. Greenspan sat there looking like a fool after the guest said that to her

[Hekate]

22. And promptly resumed her narrative the next day and the next day and the next. Can't watch her

I turn on the kitchen TV about 9 a.m. when I head in for coffee, just to see if anything momentous has occurred. And there she is…. If there’s nothing new, I can’t get rid of her fast enough.

[obamanut2012]

25. Her name is not Mrs Greenspan -- that is so sexist and gross

I am sick of seeing that on here.

[LenaBaby61]

31. Her name is not Mrs Greenspan -- that is so sexist and gross.

You wanna talk sexist, racist and gross?

She's lucky she's called Mrs. Greenspan instead of an ape in heels, silverback gorilla or monkey like Flotus Michelle Obama was and is STILL called by many tRumpcultists and racist pieces of KKK shit on twitter

[Mike Nelson]

9. Well...

... had to turn that off... I'll alternate between CNN and CSPAN and sample FOX during ads. Love how John Dean (on CNN) just corrected the host about how the public was slow to see the full Nixon.

[Silent Type]

10. Sounds like she told the truth, "If trump has his way. . . . . . "

[ificandream]

12. Reminder: MSNBC isn't Fox.

The outright abuses on Fox are what to get angry about. Fox is a station that falsely advertises itself as "news." Its prime time hosts spew lie after lie and racism. Get mad at them, not at Andrea Mitchell. Saying "the President" isn't a cardinal sin.

[Earth-shine]

19. Andrea Mitchell makes me glad there's still CNN.

[MOMFUDSKI]

26. She is a moneyed repub

and twill ever be thus. Make her go home and stay there MSNBC.

[Kid Berwyn]

27. Being married to Alan Greenspan has its rewards.

Money. Power. Privilege.

Other than that, she and her husband have done a swell job keeping Trickle Down Economics the letter, if not the law, of the land.

[LenaBaby61]

32. And the way she blasted Hillary CONTINUALLY with the .......

"But her emails" rants. Yeah, she said nothing about Princess Ivanka or about Slumlord Jared's use of private emails to steal over $640 million dollars as 'advisers' in Daddy's most crooked Administration EVER. I'm pretty sure she's not going near mentioning that $2 BILLION dollars Jared got from the Saudis--probably was payment for the transcripts tRaitor tRump stole from the White House and gave to his buddies, the Saudis. And I'm pretty sure she doesn't mention half of the things tRaitor tRump still does on the regular. Yes, must be nice being Mrs. Greenspan, and being allowed to try to continually explain away tRump's treason and criminality.

[Kid Berwyn]

29. Her ad-libs ain't.

Her work centers around one idea:

Make the rich richer by whatever means necessary and fuck everyone and everything else.

[wiggs]

33. They should be providing context if they are going to parrot gop statements. How many

times has Trump lied? How many thousands of lawsuits has Trump been a part of? How many times has Trump denigrated judges, prosecutors, law enforcement institutions with no basis in fact? It is really reasonable to request venue changes for this type of alleged crime? How often has Trump requested venue changes? How often has Trump ignored and/or challenged court findings and norms? Is Trump's request fair? What are the qualifications of the DC judge assigned to the case?

Repeating these statements without ANY journalistic evaluation is not much different than Trump saying them in the first place. All viewers hear is one side wants to relocate, the other doesn't. Almost no information helpful to public discourse.
