Rachel Maddow called out by fellow liberals for pushing anti-Trump conspiracy
Fox News ^ | October 21, 2017 | Brian Flood

Posted on 10/21/2017 3:59:48 PM PDT by jazusamo

MSNBC star Rachel Maddow’s latest anti-Trump conspiracy theory was so outlandish that even the dependently liberal HuffPost criticized it as "so flimsy that it could be debunked by a quick glance at a map."

On Thursday evening, "The Rachel Maddow Show" opened with a somber 25-minute diatribe that attempted to connect the tragic ambush attack that killed four American soldiers in Niger to the latest version of President Trump’s proposed travel ban, which included the nation of Chad. Maddow essentially claimed that the inclusion of Chad, which recently pulled its troops out of Niger, in the revised travel ban resulted in extremist attacks such as the one that left four Americans dead.

The HuffPost, which is so anti-Trump that it refused to even cover him in the political section during the early stages of his campaign, published a story headlined, "What the hell was this Rachel Maddow segment?" The MSNBC host proclaimed that Chad’s pullout from Niger "had an immediate effect in emboldening ISIS attacks," but the HuffPost easily shot down her theory.

That may be but they have a steep hill to climb to convince anyone of that. :-)

I watch Madcow once in a while for purely entertainment reasons...

She stretches credulity to unknown limits.

She weaves a narrative connecting dots that are not even in the same universe all the while waving her arms and smirking an idiot grin...

How normal people watch her is beyond my understanding...

All she has to do is make an announcement... something like this:

I would like at this moment to announce that I will be retiring from this program in two weeks’ time because of poor ratings. Since this show is the only thing I had going for me in my life, I’ve decided to kill myself. I’m going to blow my brains out right on this program a week from today. So tune in next Tuesday. That should give the public relations people a week to promote the show. You ought to get a hell of a rating out of that. 50 share, easy.

I’ve noticed that too. Have read there was 3 Green Berets killed in some articles and 4 killed in other articles.

This link to an article may help but it’s not definitive, at least to me. He may have been “Airborne” but not SF.

excerpt:

“Johnson joined the Army in January 2014 and was assigned to the 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne) at the Fort Bragg military base in North Carolina.

He was highly regarded by his military peers.

Bohler, the friend who said he was also Johnson’s supervisor at Fort Bragg, said Johnson rose through the ranks rapidly — from a private to a sergeant in less than three years.”

As a Christian I can’t wish ill on Maddow. Rather, I hope and pray that she receives Jesus as Lord and Savior. It seems unlikely, but stranger things have happened.

Maddow and Larry O’Donnell are two people I can’t listen to. They sound so deranged.

“Madcow is Glen Beck 2.0 the liberal version.”

I hope not. Beck got nearly a million people assembled on the Mall before he list it.

I thought her Ratings were back up.

Based on some old Coworkers I am “debating’ on Fakebook, she must be doing well. Still lots of Lefties out there.

The Madcow is seriously afflicted with “hoof in her mouth disease”.
