MSNBC Pulled ‘Morning Joe’ Off Air Because Execs KNEW What Guests Would Say About Trump
New York Post ^ | July 15, 2024

In the wake of the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump, even MSNBC got a clue about the insanity coming over its airwaves: Network honchos pulled left-fest “Morning Joe” Monday.

Gee, wonder why?

Wait . . . . could it be that the show plays host to some of the most whacked-out Trump-haters in the media (and that’s saying something) and MSNBC was afraid of what might slip out of their mouths?

Bingo!

Reports have an inside source saying the decision came in part over worries that one of the show’s stable of talking heads “might make an inappropriate comment on live television that could be used to assail the program and network as a whole.”

The fact that they felt the need to do this is indictment enough of the subversive liberal network.

But they leave lefty loon Joy Reid on the air, who said everything they worried Morning Joe would say. Was it because Joy is black, or because they know no one watches her anyway?

Shocking-—
Radio host today asked a young listener to call in with his knowledge of chatter in social media about Trump’s near miss of death.
He said about a third said they never follow anything political.
Another that it won’t be remembered in a week or two.

The other third———said they were deeply disappointed that the shooter didn’t finish off Donald Trump.

No need for my comments.

The network execs weighed the gain audience approval of anti-Trump remarks vs. possible ad loss (covering the companies’ rear ends by pulling ads) and disapproval. Cold and calculated.

Someone, somehow, got an impression Mika and Joe were out of control pitbull vindictive slanderous haters of Trump, dripping venom from the corners of their mouths.

How?

Killing Trump was their main cheat to win the election. With that attempt having failed, they’ll try something else or make another attempt. Bookmark my post.

Oh, Baloney! They kept all their other nutbars on schedule. Besides, they still have a few seconds delay for every precaution.

Well, Joe, don’t take that kind of dissing. Quit, quit and never look back.

Did they suddenly remember that this is a family show?

You don’t think they’ll just give it up and go home quietly? Neither do I.

Then what do you think was the reason they were kept off?

The inappropriate comments were only delayed for 24 hours, personally I think it’s better to allow Morning Joe to say whatever they want, when someone is showing themselves to be completely insane idiots, don’t stop them, let them keep going.

The more Democrats show their true intentions the better it is for Trump and Republicans and Morning Joe is part of that.
