Damned if You Don't: MSNBC Criticizes July 4th Event -- Not as Grandiose as North Korea!

When it comes to the liberal media and President Trump, it's damned if you do, damned if you don't.

MSNBC gave a classic example of the phenomenon this morning. In the days leading up to the Salute to America parade, the liberal media had savaged it, and in particular the prospect of tanks rolling down the streets of DC. But when the event actually unfolded, and instead of tanks rolling down the streets, armored vehicles were parked rather inconspicuously on display, that was no good, either.

To the contrary, in place of Morning Joe's first hour at 6 am Eastern, the MSNBC crew kvetched that the parade didn't live up to the ostentatious standards of North Korea or France! Co-host Cal Perry complained that the event wasn't the "massive parade" that had been touted. Never Trumper Tom Nichols said it wasn't "the big Bastille Day thing." And early morning co-host Yasmin Vossoughian added that it wasn't "what we've seen from the likes of Kim Jong-un in North Korea, either."

MSNBC: “The problem with Trump is, the parade was too large and tiny. It had too many civilian military units in it. Trump was entirely too involved and standoffish, in the organization of the parade. It was way too loud and silent, too. It was over-the-top patriotic but didn’t mention America enough.”

Trump got the North Koreans to celebrate the Fourth of July? I’m impressed!

“We refused to broadcast it but we’ll comment on what you should think about it anyway.” Yeah, that’ll work.

They must be preparing to be totally wrong in Nov 2020.

Was there no reporting on how many scoops of ice cream President Trump had?
