Eugene Robinson

On Morning Joe, Eugene Robinson, MSNBC's chief political analyst, suggests that Republicans try to overcome their loss of the popular vote in presidential elections by "gerrymander[ing] the hell out of everything, to try to build an advantage." But 48 out of 50 states, representing 98.3% of the 538 Electoral College votes, award all their Electoral College votes to the winner of the popular…

Hell has frozen over, and some in the left-wing corporate media have finally begun to entertain the notion that our 81-year-old President might, in fact, have some cognitive issues. Now is as good a time as any to remind everyone of how desperate these same journalists were to dismiss that idea as a “right-wing” conspiracy theory cooked up by cynical Republicans and “Russian television,” until…

On Morning Joe, the normally avuncular Eugene Robinson takes nasty shots at Ron DeSantis on the occasion of his suspending his campaign for the GOP primary. The show quotes from Robinson's most recent Washington Post column in which he mocks DeSantis' "awfully high heels on his cowboy boots."

On Morning Joe, despite being mocked for it, Joe Scarborough doubles down on his false-modesty shtick of describing himself as a "simple country lawyer." He deploys the term three times in the course of one segment, and also describes himself as having fallen off a turnip truck. "MSNBC Republican" Elise Jordan says that, given the supposedly "insane and inane" things he says, Donald Trump "…

Morning Joe expresses frustration that Biden is tied with Trump in the polls, and, because of his age, is not getting credit for his supposed accomplishments on the economy and other issues. Journalist Katty Kay spoke of the White House being "frustrated" by the poll. But the frustration of the panel itself was glaringly evident. Poor Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson embodied…

On August 5, 2013, we learned Jeff Bezos had bought the Washington Post for $250 million. The Amazon founder had an opportunity to demand that the Post hew to its longtime motto of being “an independent newspaper,” yet the record of the past decade shows the paper continues to be rabidly pro-Democrat and anti-Republican.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough is so enthralled by Dem leader Hakeem Jeffries' description of congressional as a "malignant clown show" that he repeats it multiple times.

Who you gonna believe: Joe Scarborough or your lyin' eyes? The opening segment of Morning Joe was devoted to the panel making the collective claim that, the evidence notwithstanding, Joe Biden is not just "sharp," but in the words of Eugene Robinson, "sharp as a tack."

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough and Eugene Robinson on Tuesday’s Morning Joe procured an excessively sycophantic rant about President Joe Biden’s foreign policy amid Russia’s war on Ukraine and an upcoming NATO summit he was in Europe to attend. They credited Biden for the introduction of Sweden and Finland into NATO, as well as for the existence of most of America’s military alliances across…

Morning Joe offers an all-liberal panel of Jen Palmieri, Eugene Jackson, and Jonathan Lemire to comment on the Republican presidential primary.  Would it kill the show to have on a Republican to comment on the Republican race?

Trying to explain why Donald Trump held onto classified documents after leaving the presidency, Morning Joe describes him as a pathological, weird, bizarre, criminal hoarder, similar to John Nash, the schizophrenic mathematician who was the subject of the movie, A Beautiful Mind.

Tuesday’s Morning Joe featured a revealing segment dedicated to Sen. Tim Scott’s (R-SC) appearance on The View and the left’s inevitable racial divisiveness. It ended up being a rather embarrassing admission of the left’s own racism disguised as an attempt to virtue signal how tolerant they were toward racial minorities with conservative views. Scarborough started out…

On Thursday afternoon, President Biden took a might tumble when he fell nearly flat on his face at the U.S. Air Force Academy. Such a fall drew eyeballs and defenses from the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC with the conservative drinking game words of capitalizing, pouncing and seizing on it. Over on the liberal cable networks CNN and MSNBC, both (largely) saw no reason to be concerned and…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough scolds Democrat "bedwetters" who are upset over an ABC News/Washington Post poll showing Joe Biden with historically low approval ratings and losing to Donald Trump in a head-to-head match-up.
