Keep in mind as you watch @MSNBC not mention his name again that @AndrewYang is only being out-polled by three of these people on stage with him, and his RCP national average puts him at 8th overall out of the 20 at the debates... /13

MSNBC: "A new qualifying poll came out from Monmouth where 2% is needed to get into the fall debates. Let's exclude @AndrewYang again, despite his getting 2% for the 4th time and becoming the 9th candidate to officially qualify for the fall debates."

MSNBC: "Okay let's make a graphic that displays all 9 of the candidates that have already qualified for the fall debates. Oh and let's use perspective to make our favorites bigger and let's put Yang on the far end. One more thing, make sure to block him. There we go…" #YangGang

MSNBC: "Hey check out the latest Economist/YouGov poll with @AndrewYang at 2%. Let's make sure and just show Booker and Gabbard at 2%. No one needs to know about this Yang guy and his damn MATH."

CNN: "Yo MSNBC, hold my beer!"

(@AndrewYang got 3% in this poll which apparently they simply had no room for… Also each of the other missing candidates got 2% or less.)

CNN: "We have decided that if @AndrewYang didn't exist, these would be the top 6 from the Quinnipiac poll, so despite Yang polling 3% in this poll, there is no point in displaying him in the top 6."

CNN: "Okay okay okay, everyone. Sheesh. Enough with the outrage machine. We've heard you, and so here's the top 6 candidates based on recent rolling polling average, minus @AndrewYang because we couldn't fit him into the graphic obviously."
