1) Never, ever sleep on how awful MSNbC can be. After watching CNN’s coverage of Bernie’s speech I thought “Wow this is really bad. I bet it’s even worse than how MSNBC is covering it”. Well I was wrong. MSNBC got to Bernie’s speech a minute late, labeled it as not being live
2) and then proceeded to leave the speech after only 9 minutes, a minute earlier than CNN, and have their panelists bad mouth the speech even tho one of them admitted that “He’d have to actually watch the speech to be confident in what he was saying.”
3) They then have a 3 minute panel between a Republican and Jamal Simmons, a supposed Dem strategist who I’ve seen on MSNBC at least 20 times and is always badmouthing Bernie every time he’s on, and he claimed Bernie is trying to take people back to the 1890’s saying Bernie
4) Sanders wants to take us back to the 1890’s” and he’s not sure “it’s going to work”. streamable.com/0iepu
5) But to get a real sense of the kind of operation MSNBC is running, you got to check in with our friends at MTP daily where Chuck Todd is back from his vacation and up to his old tricks
6) there’s about 100 things wrong with this segment but I’ll just pick out 2 or 3. The first is that earlier in the show, and I mean like 10 mins earlier at most, they actually show how Bernie is kicking Trump’s ass, tho they don’t actually show his numbers but just Trump’s. 
7) so keep that in mind when we look at the segment on Bernie. Actually I checked and the polling data was less than 3 minutes before the segment. Anyway so first thing you will notice is that Chuck Todd as usual has on 2 Republicans and Claire Mccaskill who if I’m being
8) generous is a centrist and supports Biden. So we have the typical Bernie MSNBC segment where all 3 talking heads hate Bernie and there’s no one even sympathetic to him. Secondly these hacks all try to make an electability argument against Bernie even tho the polling shows
9) Bernie is kicking Trump’s ass. Then McCaskill claims Bernie doesn’t even think he can win and is instead campaigning for the 2020 platform. They then all agree that Bernie is nothing without Hillary and is bombing even tho he’s still in second. Finally we have a Republican
10) telling us what Democratic Party is. Oh ya and McCaskill gives Biden’s campaign an 8 and claims it’s going great. This is just awful, awful stuff from the supposed “liberal” of the 3 channels. Fox News has better liberal representation than this.
11). Here’s the god awful clip from the god awful show on the god awful network. streamable.com/krvch
12) No word yet on whether this segment was also brought to you by Boeing tho
13) Btw I wonder why no one is talking about this brand new poll? Ya Bernie’s done alright...
14) Final tweet in this thread. For all CNN and MSNBC have done to try and bury Bernie’s speech today, it’s currently trending nationally
