MSNBC's Ali Vitali on Morning Joe: 'Sense of Despair' Hangs Over Democrats
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 07/13/2024 11:20:38 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On today's Morning Joe, MSNBC reporter Ali Vitali twice used the d-word, for "despair," to describe the mood of congressional Democrats over the dilemma as to whether Biden should remain the nominee or step aside.

Vitali's very first words set the tone:

"I haven't talked to anyone who's a [Dem] staffer, who is an operative, who's an elected, who doesn't say some form of this sentence, "I love Joe Biden, but." . . . There was just a real sense on the Hill yesterday of despair."

Vitali sounded the d-word again in her closing comments:

"There is such a sense of despair that has been hanging over the Capitol as I've been working the halls the last few days."

The amount of despair so many of us have had in our lives because of Biden is not even considered.

I dunno. I am concerned about the replacement candidate and feel
this Biden dropout thing is too conveniently timed.

Anyone who says “I love Joe Biden” is a sociopath that is a danger to themselves and others.

“...who doesn’t say some form of this sentence, “I love Joe Biden, but.”


But why the ‘love’ part? Joe, despite our huge political differences, doesn’t seem all that lovable.

I love Joe Biden but . . . it is time for him to stand up and say for the good of the country he is in the race to stay.

He can probably stop the dem criticism by stating anyone that opposes him is a racist.

I can't think of a better way to shut someone up.

Joe may be bad, but he is losing.

"I haven't talked to anyone who's a [Dem] staffer, who is an operative, who's an elected, who doesn't say some form of this sentence, "I love Joe Biden, but."

Spoiler alert: nobody loves Joe Biden - certainly not his family and most certainly not his wife. He was a means to gain power in 2020 and he is a way to hang on to power in 2024. Anyone who believes that any of his family and so-called friends give a crap about this senile old man is probably senile too - all of the symptoms of mental decline he's showing now, he was showing in 2020.

Is the Democrats sense of despair any worse than the sense of gloom they’ve put over America?

This would have been a lot better for Dems if they ahole buddies in the media hadn’t gaslit them for the past 3+ years. They tried to run out the clock and ran out of Biden first.

The amount of despair so many of us have had in our lives because of Biden is not even considered.

The 'little people' aren't ever considered by democrats.

Look how democrats are tossing the almost twenty million OF THEIR OWN VOTERS - (those who voted in democrat primaries) under the bus. Democrat 'elties' see the primaries as something they do 'for show' not because they respect the votes of their own party members.

In the democrat party 'the elites' and 'the donors' matter - no one else. To even wonder if democrats consider 'the people' or how the little people feel - is a bridge too far.

What common citizens are to democrat 'elites' is people to fill focus groups so they can learn how to pull the wool over the eyes of citizens who don't matter to them.

LBJ was feeling a sense of despair the weekend before November 22, 1963.

Totally agree.

Main factor in the election is the Dems unified front of hatred for Trump.

Media propagandists will make the replacement look like a vision at Fatima.

Ironically, THEY are the little people. Many of us have a ton more education than most of them, and do something useful in life.

Agree. We’ve lost freedom of speech, professions cancelled over non acceptable opinions and so much more.

Along with being in danger of a scowling codger deciding to set off a nuclear war if he gets cranky.

Nobody loves Joe Biden. Not even his reprobate family members. These party people have to say that, to preface their criticism with a sign of loyalty— protection against blowback from the more powerful.
