Why isn't Rachel Madcow treated like other conspiracy theory nutbags?

[WTH_Progs?]

Tucker is dead-on, its performance art. Madcow takes the “mothering” approach. Imagine that, a devoted lesbian takes the mothering approach in “news”. Kind of like Whoopi.

The IRS has no problem with the figure.

Please quote the IRS saying that.

Was he charged with tax evasion?

Next?

So you admit the IRS has not said they have no problems with his tax returns. Do really think Tramp allows the IRS to see BOTH sets of his books?????

If they had a problem, he would be charged with tax evasion, Moron.

Do you have a coherent thought to offer?

Or he ties them up in litigation until they compromise.

So, no coherent thought.

Got it.

Let’s review:

What we have seen of Trump’s tax returns shows he paid a rate of 25%. Nothing unusual about that. I provided links verifying this.

You show up and make these claims with no links, no evidence, and nothing to back it up:

Trump evaded taxes.
Trump has two sets of books.
Trump has secretly tied up his crimes in court without anyone knowing.


And you are stupid enough to claim I have nothing?

You are a joke.

 

[White 6]

She is the biggest conspiracy theory whackjob on TV, and yet the left tries to claim she is an intellectual.

She is just another lefty nutbag.



Again We Ask: Why Isn’t Rachel Maddow Treated Like Other Crazy Conspiracy Theorists?



Some conspiracy fear-mongers are more equal than others.

OK. I did not answer your question of "why she isn't treated like other crazy conspiracy theorist".
All the following from Rachel Maddow - Wikipedia

She has a certain amount of intellectual cred.
She earned a degree in public policy at Stanford in 1994.[20] At graduation, she was awarded the John Gardner Fellowship.[21] She was the recipient of a Rhodes Scholarship and began her postgraduate study in 1995 at Lincoln College, Oxford. She had also been awarded a Marshall Scholarship the same year but turned it down in favour of the Rhodes.[22] This made her the first open lesbian to win an international Rhodes Scholarship.[a][24] In 2001, she earned a Doctor of Philosophy (DPhil) in politics at the University of Oxford.[25] Her thesis is titled HIV/AIDS and Health Care Reform in British and American Prisons, and her supervisor was Lucia Zedner.[26]

• In December 2017 The Advocate named her as a finalist for its "Person of the Year".[98]
  
  A 2011 Hollywood Reporter profile of Maddow said she was able to deliver news "with agenda, but not hysteria".[57] A Newsweek profile said, "At her best, Maddow debates ideological opponents with civility and persistence ... but for all her eloquence, she can get so wound up ripping Republicans that she sounds like another smug cable partisan."
  

So?

She is still a conspiracy theory nutbag.

Eggheads giving other eggheads meaningless awards means nothing to thinking people. People like you who are easily led around by the nose are impressed with such fluff.

You did not ask if she is a conspiracy nut bag. I don't agree with all of her points, because they are sometime a stretch too far. But when I do actually see part of her show, she sometimes has verifiable facts put out that are very interesting. How she weaves the facts to support some of her premises are no better or worse than most nutballs on the right at times. But, I answered your question. She has been lucky to have great education success, with high marks from prestigious schools, landing pretty good jobs right out of school. She was counseled by Roger Ailes. receiving technical advice she believes has given her an advantage over some of her competitors. Her on air performance has garnered her many awards from main stream sources, including four or more Emmy Awards. Any way you slice it, she found a path to mainstream credibility, regardless of whether right wing viewers like what she has to say. You mentioned Alex Jones as a conspiracy theorist. You are correct. He does not have anywhere near the credibility, but in fact, he never sought it. Championing debunked outlandish theories, does not support credibility.

Everyone who reads this messageboard knows I ALWAYS have backup.

Hey dumbass, Cohen admitted Tramp has two sets of books! And ProPublica independently confirmed it.
Can't you ever stop lying?????
Trump Tax Records Reveal New Inconsistencies — This Time for Trump Tower — ProPublica

Documents show the president’s company reported different numbers — higher ones to lenders, lower ones to tax officials — for Trump’s signature building. Last month, ProPublica revealed a similar pattern in two other Trump buildings.
