I realize the mere mention of Rachel Maddow's name makes Trumplton's apoplectic, but..........

[Sun Devil 92]

.................if you would like to see a comprehensive explanation of how Trump has corrupted the CDC, in this case with respect to their guidelines for re-opening schools, watch this.



During the segment she shows a document that was part of the CDC's original guidelines, the ones they issued before Trump forced them to be changed. It shows a large STOP sign indicating consideration for school re-opening by local officials should stop at the point when the area the school is in is experiencing difficulty in handling the spread of COVID.

Anyway, the video is self explanatory.

It is my contention that during any other presidency this would be a scandal of enormous magnitude. There would be unrelenting coverage of a story showing how the POTUS pressured the CDC to modify its guidelines despite there being no change in the science on which the original ones were based. A story leaving no doubt in people's minds that the public's safety is knowingly being jeopardized by an official policy of a US government agency, after being directed to do so by the POTUS, that does not reflect the best available scientific information.

Normally, this would end whatever increasingly slim chance Don had for a second term. It would be front page news on the cover of every newspaper and the lead on every news show. The Sunday morning talk shows would be speaking of nothing else.

As it is, the story will likely be dropped from the news cycle by tomorrow. Replaced by the next scandal that would normally end the presidency of any other politician. And so it goes.

I will watch the Rachael Maddow comedy hour once in a while.

She used to be good.

Now, she is good for a laugh.

You are sorely mistaken. Madcow is a joke. We laugh in her general direction.

 

[Sun Devil 92]

I haven't watched that lunatic dyke in over 2 years.
So she's still collecting a paycheck, eh?

It's pathetic watching morons make sexist jokes about someone because they can't address the subject at hand without acknowledging another abuse of power by Trump in forcing the CDC to alter their guidelines to serve his political fortunes.

It's no joke that she's a dyke. It's the truth.
She's a conspiracy theorist. The only person who makes her a subject, is another conspiracy theorist.

Glenn Beck in drag

 

[Sun Devil 92]

She is the Rush Limbaugh of the left.
Crazy as all get out.

Mr. Limbaugh is the recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom as well as a past nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize. Ms. Maddow isn't in his league.

Rachael Maddow is a Rhodes Scholar while the best Rush has on his resume is High School Graduate

Kinda gives Rhodes Scholars a bad name.

I think Clinton was also a Rhodes Scholar. Is Rachael a womanizer too ?

 

[BluesLegend]

Maddow is so smart, so educated and brilliant that she ended up being a hack host on a hack cable news network.

 

[B. Kidd]

Madcow was wrong about 'Russia, Russia, Russia' for over 3 years straight!

Anyone who is that wrong that often, does not belong on cable news.
The only thing that she deserves to be subject-wise, is an object of ridicule. Especially since she IS a Rhodes scholar.
Fuck an A!

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Isn't that the dude who got Trump's tax return and found out he paid more taxes then Madcow earned?

Fckn priceless

Is there a single agency within Donald's federal government that he hasn't politicized or kneecapped?
Nope

Mr. Limbaugh dropped out of college because he knew what he wanted to do and realized that college wouldn't help him.

Couldn‘t cut it in college. He became a DJ
Not Rocket Science

Mr. Limbaugh isn't a DJ, he's an innovator in radio communication who revolutionized the AM band and talk radio. There were talk shows before Limbaugh- local programs that were caller-driven. Rush's idea was to have a program where the host would be central and the job of the callers was to make him look good. Now he has 50 million listeners, and is a neighbor of President Trump's in Palm Beach.

Tucker Carlson got her a start and she was recognized for her good analytics.

Then she got her own show and it turned to shit.

Actually, you have it half assed backwards. President Trump is depoliticizing the federal government. Dumping hacks like Comey and McCabe and that doofus US Attorney in NYC.

Well, your contention is wrong....as usual.

You are just trolling the board.

Given that we are balancing an approach for something we've never used before against the economy.....the left has pretty much forced it to the fucked up state it is now and killed a lot of seniors in the process.

Maybe he should have just instructed states to stop counting.

Obama admin shut down H1N1 testing, complicating Biden's ...

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/flashback-obama

...


However, during the 2009 swine flu pandemic, the Obama administration suddenly told states to shut down their testing, without providing much in the way of explanation. And, Biden's top advisor at the time has acknowledged that the Obama administration didn't do "anything right" to combat that pandemic, before walking back those comments.

"In late July, the CDC abruptly advised states to stop testing for H1N1 flu, and stopped counting individual cases," CBS News reported in 2009. "The rationale given for the CDC guidance to forego testing and tracking individual cases was: why waste resources testing for H1N1 flu when the government has already confirmed there's an epidemic?"

Oh stop with this horseshit. The CDC shut down the testing due to the fact it was redundant. Obama didn't issue the order. As I recall there was a quick response to the virus, and a vaccine within six months.
As opposed to the disaster unfolding for the last six months.

So, when Obama was President the CDC was in charge and calling the shots, but now that Trump is President things work differently?!?

 

[blackhawk]

Is this the same Maddow that bragged about getting Trumps tax returns and hyped every Russian collusion theroy that poped up for days and weeks? She is far left version of Alex Jones.

LOL. Alex Jones?? No. First she would have to hawk every conspiracy theory under the sun, then she'd have to have a website that not only hawked these theories, but also sold you useless supplements and other survival paraphernalia to part you from your money. And finally, she's have to be a complete fraud. Which she isn't. Nice try. I've never personally heard her refer to the Sandy Hook shootings as a false flag. And don't worry, we're gonna see Trump's tax records eventually.

Naturally, Faux distorts the truth by putting "Obama shut down testing" in the headline rather than "The CDC shut down testing." If there's evidence Obama put pressure on the CDC to make this decision as there is that Trump pressured the CDC to change the school reopening guidelines please provide it. Otherwise, STFU.

We should apply the same logic now as Obama/CDC did then.


"why waste resources testing for H1N1 flu when the government has already confirmed there's an epidemic"? It's amazing how the narrative changes.

She got to un-credible to watch. Haven't watched in 2+ years.
I'm surprised someone still pays her.

Whatever the fact remains she is a far left partisan hack who has zero credibility as journalists. As far as Trumps tax returns go even if that liberal wet dream does eventually come true the only ones likely to care are far left partisan hacks. Now I’m going to watch some fanless baseball still more entertaining than Maddow.
