NEW YORK (AP) - Rachel Maddow says that if people felt let down by her story about President Donald Trump's 2005 tax document it's more because of the weight of expectation than anything she did.
The MSNBC host found herself in the odd position Wednesday of defending herself from criticism following one of the biggest-ever scoops for her show.

More than a medium porterhouse steak?
Actually, I like sloppy joes too. With lots of mustard.

Depends on the steak. You can get a Porterhouse at Golden Corral and Ruth’s Chris, but they’re not exactly the same.

Never been to Ruth’s Chris. I’m praying God will let some things fall into place soon. If that happens I might finally check it out. Definitely on my to-do list :-)

Isn’t that strange looking guy who got the 2pages and is discussing with her also a felon? Publishing the return without Trump’s permission is a felony. Trump mails to weird boy who gives to Clown Girl. DON takes them both down

I’ve been three times over the years, mostly when I made real money. It’s worth going at least once for the experience alone. I’m sure there are other places with similar food. But the best meal I’ve ever had was the Chef’s tasting menu at the Carter Green Steakhouse at the Island View Casino in Gulfport, Mississippi.

My dad’s “lunch” when he was able to attend school was a piece of cornbread with lard slathered on it.

One time Grandpa flubbed his lines and blurted out "Ah ain't got nuthin',"
It was the only time the rest of the cast booed him!
