MSNBC and CNN claim decency and objectivity, so why do they continue to broadcast vicious incitement of violence? Joy Reid

Reid: “And very quickly, this massive resistance, it sounds like the old Southerners who said that we will resist integration by any means necessary, that Chip Roy language. How does that read inside of the Latino community?”
RAMOS: “It’s very — it’s very simple, no? If you’re the Republican Party, you’re allegedly the party of laws and order. And you’re essentially telling local authorities to break the law. So I think once again, going into this image of, you know, who is the party of law and order and who is the party for democracy. I think that’s where we have to highlight the hypocrisy regardless of the politics. They’re essentially telling people to break the law. “

HARRIS: “... November of — of 2024 binary. And on the other side, you’ve got someone who has said that if he were back in office, he would weaponize the Department of Justice. Someone who has openly applauded insurrectionists as patriots. Someone who has said that they will go after their political enemies and — and applauds dictators, indicating that he would be one. So, let’s be really clear about what’s at stake, and then yes, of course, there is then a desire that let’s get out there because we can’t lose this democracy. We can’t.”

CARVILLE: “He’s exactly right. This is not a typical election. And there is a massive effort to normalize this. You see The New York Times column saying, well, the Trump people have a case. You see the head of JPMorgan Morgan Chase, the largest bank in the United States, saying, well, they’re right about some things. You see reporters with Jason Miller in the Des Moines hotel, reminds me of a bunch of German reporters in some Munich bar in 1935 saying, ‘Hey, Goering, he was an entertaining guy. I tell you what, he had some great stories.’ Nothing is normal about this at all. And if you watch his speech last night, it was completely unhinged. And what I am obsessed with is, stop treating him like he is a normal candidate, that this is some kind of Bob Dole, Mitt Romney. This is really not."
