We get it, Joe S.: You think we're hypocritical about Bill Clinton v. Donald Trump

[nixonwasbetterthanW]

You've made your point. What else do you have?

[BSdetect]

1. Joker is really stretching his tiny mind these days.

[EV_Ares]

2. I thoiught he & Mika looked shell shocked & Mika was about to cry.

[Ilsa]

6. She refused to opine on the veracity of the latest accusations,

Particularly, the one in the NYT. She looked like she was being muzzled, and like her job depended on it.

[EV_Ares]

16. I agree, cannot really figure it out but both of them were really different. I broke down to watch

a little of it & there is something up. For the one obvious thing, I am sure they see the writing on the wall that Clinton is more likely to be the next President & they have done nothing to endear themselves to her & Trump is probably not going to be in very good shape after the election. He has destroyed the Trump brand & a lot of people do not now want to be associated with it. Business is down especially in his hotels over 59% they said at one time. It will be interesting.

[Ilsa]

18. I don't think Mika is upset that HRC is winning

and DT losing. I'm certain she'll vote for Her. But it's as if someone has told them they'll have to share in the blame when dt loses, or that they'll somehow be called to account for something.

[EV_Ares]

19. Well, just listening to her. She keeps on & on saying Clinton needs to address about her attacks on

the women (which absolutely she does not). She keeps on like Clinton needs to get off her high-horse about the emails the speeches. She gives Trump so many passes which is why if she is for Clinton she has a weird way of showing her support.

[Ilsa]

20. I think she's overcompensating.

Yeah, she's pathetic in insisting H do those things.

[NewJeffCT]

3. I didn't know Bill Clinton was running for president?

plenty of Democrats didn't like what happened with Lewinsky, etc. However, most Democrats also realized that the hyperventilating media and Republicans had blown adultery way out of proportion.

There is also a huge difference between adultery and rape or sexual assault.

11. The leading critics of Bill Clinton were guilty of the same offense as they attacked Clinton.

Newt Gingrich, Dan Burton, Henry Hyde, David Vitter, Bob Livingston and others. They were all having affairs or recently had affairs while they were pontificating on how terrible Clinton's conduct was. That took away any credibility they could have had in their attacks because it was revealed that they were major hypocrites.

I'm not aware of any of Hillary's attacks on Trump being hypocritical. And Trump and his minions are trying to deflect the argument to bring Bill Clinton in the mix, as if his behavior was all Hillary's fault. Quite a leap of logic, but that's standard procedure with Republicans of late.

[treestar]

13. exactly and as usual the hypocrites are the Republicans

Bill Clinton did not do anything so crass. And he can attract women without forcing himself on them. Bill may fail to resist temptation but Don the Con does not tempt any women and therefore has to use his money or power.

[monmouth4]

4. I will be so happy when they're both gone. It's getting tired, need new faces and a much

improved format..

[awake]

5. Joe I have news for you Bill is not running for President Hillary is

And Hillary has a long history of putting up with Men like Trump and your self Joe.
Wake up and smell your coffee "Morning Joe" oh and while you are at it - Go F*ck Yourself

[NoGoodNamesLeft]

7. If this guy upsets so many people on here I have to ask...

Why watch him?

[TuxedoKat]

9. It's the show we love to hate

also, I like some of their other guests although quite a few of them who are on too often, are just as bad as Joe, including Mark Halperin and Donny Deutsch.

[treestar]

14. I never watch them either

Just secondarily via DU. I think DUers watch to get the latest outrage. Also it is a way to get the RW talking points so as to be able to counter them.

[uponit7771]

17. He's the GOP canary in the coal mine, if he's going nuts the rest of them are going crazy

[TampaAnimusVortex]

21. Because you dont want to exist in an echo chamber.

Do you really want to be surrounded by people parroting just what you want to hear? Pretty boring.

[book_worm]

8. Somebody should ask Joe how a dead intern got into his office.

[Thrill]

10. Again Bill isn't running for President

[Adrahil]

12. That's a two-edged sword....

If Democrats defending Bill and attacking Don the Con are hypocritical, then so is any GOPer who called Bill Clinton a disgrace, impeached him and is now using Clinton as an excuse to not hold Cheeto Jeebus accountable.

I have no doubt Clinton was a horn dog an probably did inappropriate things. But he didn't brag about it on the radio and TV. Clinton never publicly claimed he was able to sexually assault women because of his star status. At least some of these claims are simply backing up what Trump himself said he did.

[Capt. Obvious]

15. Some people say Joe murdered his intern

I mean people are talking about it. Lots of really smart people.

[leftynyc]

22. Anybody have access to

what Joey was saying about Bill Clinton during impeachment? He was just a young congressperson at the time and came in during the 1994 wave. I'm betting his hypocrisy is off the charts on this issue.
