MSNBC’s Reid: ‘Empty Vessel’ Trump Could Provoke a Crisis With ‘Christians Versus Islam’ Talk
MSNBC/BREITBART ^ | 25 Dec 2016 | Pam Key

Posted on 12/25/2016 9:45:56 AM PST by GonzoII

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet The Press,” MSNBC host Joy Reid said President-elect Donald Trump is an “empty vessel” whose language “about Christians versus Islam,” coupled with potentially moving the U.S.embassy to Jerusalem could provoke “an absolute crisis.”

Reid said, “Well, I think the problem with Trump is because he is an empty vessel, the danger in that is that the strong camps in Trump world are all troubling. You’ve got Putinism which Trump feels in his own gut, as you can hear when he speaks. He’s very pro-Putin. So the idea of turning over global leadership to Russia is troubling. The second piece is that Donald Trump is echoing this European sort of ethno-nationalist line that the far right parties in Europe are.”

Joy’s correct. DTJ should be talking about the ‘Islam vs. the World’ crisis that’s been going on for ages.

No, they are not related but they might as well be.

“Islam has been at war with everyone else on the planet since 622 A.D.”

And by 728 AD, Islam had destroyed Classical Western Civilization and Classical Christianity while making the slave trade the biggest business going (a historical wrinkle Westerners love to forget).

Now its time for Round Two ...

The media’s obsession with Trump bashing is costing them viewers. It has collectively gone totally mad.

It’s long past time for the Christians to remember that.

The Apostle Paul said it best - For we battle not with flesh and blood, ......

I am not surprised when well-intended Atheists and Agnostics try to explain to Christians about the religion of peace.

Trump has been the most out-spoken proponent of Christianity to be in the White House in a very long time.

Since his critics think Jesus to be a mythical person, I am not surprised.

Further proof that Ms. Reid should refrain from thinking and stick with she does best.

Joy’s problem is not that Trump is an empty vessel; it’s that she has an empty head.

"So the idea of turning over global leadership to Russia is troubling."

She really is that stupid or ignorant or just socialist psycho? While Trump is trying to smooth/build relations with Russia after the Obama/Hillary failed attempts with a reset button, she doesn't KNOW that Trump is going to rebuild our military to counter Russia's military expansion?

I'm not highly educated, but I'm more informed than these idiot pundits. How do they find their way to the bathroom in the morning, much less get a job on TV? Who is the programming director of MSNBC and why does he still have that job while they barely pay their bills?

Maybe the first thing Trump will do on day one is to announce that the US Embassy will move to Jerusalem within days...let Oama take that thumb out of his eye.

Yeah. Good thing the Muslims have not been at war with Christians.

"Reid said, “Well, I think the problem with Trump is because he is an empty vessel,..."

Let's compare and contrast. Reid is a nobody talking head on a news channel with the lowest ratings on TV; Trump is a highly successful businessman who has built more than this idiot can comprehend (can she even read a Balance Sheet?) and has close relationships with countless powerful people around the World.

So...WHO is the "empty vessel"? I report; you decide.

One must ask what her credentials are to label someone else an empty anything....just being a Black female ain’t credentials.

Is Joy Reid the same woman in this video that smirks after Ann Coulter says that Donald Trump is best positioned to win?

“Joy Reid”.........

Talk about an “empty vessel”, that is the pot calling the kettle black as the saying goes.
