MSNBC Host Floats Canceling the McCloskeys at GOP Convention
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/22/2020 11:52:04 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Guest-hosting MSNB's AM Joy today, Jonathan Capehart of the Washington Post and MSNBC suggested that network execs shouldn't show the "felonious couple," i.e. the McCloskeys, when they speak at the RNC convention next week. And a guest on the show claimed that President Trump would use the McCloskeys as an example to promote a "violent mutiny" should he lose the election.

While suggesting the canceling of the McCloskey couple—who benefit from the presumption of innocence—Capehart predictably didn't utter a peep about the Democrats having given a convention speaking slot to someone convicted of murder in a particularly gruesome and grisly slaying.

The Democrats fear the pro 2nd Amendment, Middle America optics that the McCloskeys will demonstrate at the RNC.

But did Jonathan have a problem with network coverage of murderer and rapist Donna Hylton at the DNC Convention?



I didn’t think so.

"felonious couple"

As I recall, all charges were dropped and they were never brought to trial, much less convicted of anything. Once again, the media throws slander out to the ignorant masses.

“Who is who ?”
A couple in St. Louis that faced down Antifa in their year. The guy had an AR-15 the wife a revolver. Antifa broke down the gate to their yard.

Photo a clue.

From the article:

“The McCloskeys made national news when they defended their home by displaying weapons when a large BLM group entered their gated community.”

No one is going to watch it on your channel anyway.

Did they cancel the DNC speaker that’s a convicted murderer who crushed her victim’s testicles before murdering him? Or just people who’ve been accused but not convicted, and even that very likely for political reasons?
