Trump Convention Fails In The One Measure He Cares About: Ratings | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC

78 comments

    1. A compilation is bad enough but it’s survivable and it gives some insight in the lunacy of the Great Swump Leader and Grand Swump Party.

    1. @John D Come on. You know it was four days of lies and deceit. I saw the low lights afterward. Can’t really say High lights.

    2. @Frank Huizar
      No it wasn’t it was black peolle speaking about why they left the democrats. Agian the dumb party doesn’t even know whats going on.

    3. @Frank Huizar
      Yes let’s get the information from a censored area, again the dumb party doesn’t understand what is going on.

  1. Wow, the audience preferred logic, empathy and the promise of a more equal and just America over coked up, screaming and lying sycophants praising the president who let 180,000 die on his watch?

    1. Well if you take out the democratic ran states, with democratic mayors, democratic governors, and democratic city councils, death rates are non existant

    2. @Otay Buckwheat Just happened to stumble on this comment of yours, tb ♪ cnn, msnbc, thehill, goodmorningamerica–for the most part, those are the only Y-T channels I go to now. I’m not here to make friends, or get “subscribers”–I come to engage with Communists such as yourself…do you know Jesus, tb?? BTW, as soon as Trump is RE-elected, I’ll go back among among Conservatives ♥

    3. @James Collier Did you see that CDC report a couple days ago?? 6% of reported deaths were due EXCLUSIVELY to the virus: that’s LESS than 10 THOUSAND people.

    1. @Raging Monk
      The rnc did do better than the dnc rating wise, just not on TV. Again the dumb party is confused by nuance.

    2. @Raging Monk
      Lol the polls are in favor of democrats moron and the polls aren’t reflective of the base that has left democrats. Also no kne is going to vote Democrat when they are litterly not prosecuting terrorists. Again the dumb party is projecting.

    1. No he didn’t fix anything, your right. What he did do is he created one disaster after another. Can you imagine the damage if he gets another term?

    1. @Francis Conners Oh’..sorry Francy..9 is the age you were sniffed- groped by Dementia- DC- crook- Joe Biden…! …real comedy…….

  2. His whole presidency has been a campaign…why tune in when you you’re gonna get all the same bs

    1. @Justin Wright did you hear that pop…it was your messiah dragging his lips off of Xi’s north pole

    2. Conspiracynutsmakemechuckle outloud
      Right, because Xi Jinping 🇨🇳 of China has a documented sexual relationship
      with POTUS. Your sexual fantasy with Xi is noted.
      @ConspiracyKnucklehead Pantload
      Time for U to return Mommy’s laptop 👩🏻‍💻👍

  3. The criminal in chief is fighting for his life to stay out of prison, he has no agenda, none, he could care less hundreds of thousands of Americans die from Covid19, all he cares is money and greed

    1. So why did he close the border to China, and later to Europe, at the end of January already? This while everyone was distracted by the impeachment scam.

    2. He saved millions doing that but Joe called him hysterically xenophobic. Most probably saved that creeps life, and yours. You should be thanking him.

  4. that must be getting under his skin more than anything else!
    Indeed, dems should keep publicly hammering on that till the election. It will drive him crazy…er than he already is!

    1. You are right – much of it contradicted what we were told on MSNBC, CNN and at DNC convention. Therefore = lies.

    2. @Jackpot Clothing Much of it contradicted what we have seen with our own eyes and heard with our own ears. Bonespurs hates it when the media shows what he’s been saying and doing in his own words and by his own actions, Yuri.

    3. eurekajim yes of course. You have seen and heard it on the main stream media with your own eyes and own ears. Just like Nick Sandmann story.
      No one argues that. 🖕🏻
      Obviously you are too lazy or stupid to confirm from different sources when the CNN or MSNBC serves you anything outrageous.
      Typical dumb Biden base.

    4. @Jackpot Clothing Ah, Yes. The “Truth isn’t Truth” and the “What you’re seeing and hearing isn’t True” rebuttal.
      Didn’t expect that one. /sarc
      It’s not like I don’t actually live here in America and am experiencing it for myself, Yuri.

  5. *Weekly reminder:* Trump doesn’t want 4 more years of presidency. He wants 4 more years of immunity.

    1. @Cliff Roberson
      “Statutes freeze.”..
      That was my understanding… They
      resume clocking on term end. Why would he think he can hide out to run them out?
      Who’s advising him on NY?

    2. @Vote him Out I have not heard that statutes freeze. I have heard numerous sources state his re-election would get him past a few indictments. I watch PBS and MSNBC. I watch ABC evening news and read some CNN online. Never heard that statutes freeze. I hope they do. As for tax crimes however, I have always heard that they go back what 9 years…. But if they find fraud, they have the power to go back to day one. State crimes, I an wondering if indictments can be sealed and frozen until he gets out of office. I just don’t know enough about the law. (Of course I wasn’t planning on breaking the law like he does either) lol

  6. “His government was constantly in chaos, with officials having no idea what he wanted them to do, and nobody was entirely clear who was actually in charge of what.”

    “He procrastinated wildly when asked to make difficult decisions, and would often end up relying on gut feeling, leaving even close allies in the dark about his plans.”

    “His “unreliability had those who worked with him pulling out their hair,”… ”

    “This meant that rather than carrying out the duties of state, they spent most of their time in-fighting and back-stabbing each other in an attempt to either win his approval or avoid his attention altogether, depending on what mood he was in that day.”

    This sounds like Trump and his administration, but it’s actually a description of Hitler.

    1. @John D “Oh that man shot by police deserved to be shot” You made my point. Enjoy your president of the united states of america, the ominous joke of the world.

    2. @Rui Alexandre
      Yep … Its a clear case
      of a stupid person making stupid statements that other stupid people believe.
      If we leave the Repugnants to Trumps advice they
      will all be dead before the election. Leave them be.

    1. Really? The same China on which he imposed all those sanctions and called out for cheating and stealing? They want him to win. Why not ask China Joe about that? C’mon man. LOL.

    2. Randall Small
      Xi Jinping 🇨🇳 is Geriatric Joe’s biggest communist supporter.
      Biden promised, if elected China could continue to steal USA patents.
      Problem is Biden thinks he’s running against Ronald Reagan.

    3. @Randall Small don’t bother with the analysis of MSNBC viewers as MSNBC themselves have been wrong since 2016. 😂😂

  7. LOL “…and you just know, that is going to make him absolutely crazy”… LOL.. yeah, I get satisfaction from knowing the too….

  8. Oh the con man is going to be upset. Wonder what lies he’ll come up with to turn that into a tremendous success!👎

    1. His ratings are HUGE 4 more years WOOOOOOOO LATINOS FOR TRUMP KAG 202O 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

    2. rrmndtqrg8 q , you have to be a troll! No one in their right mind, especially a minority, would believe the crap this con man is offering! Lol! 🤣
