Rachel Maddow Rebukes Own Network for Airing Trump Victory Speech: ‘Irresponsible to Broadcast’
Trump: “I read an article yesterday where it said this is one of the finest run campaigns that everybody or anybody has ever seen. That is pretty good, right?
(Applause)
That’s pretty good. That’s really a statement. And we have no choice...”
(Feed cuts off)
MADDOW: “Yeah, okay. Okay. You know, it is — it is — okay, I will say it is a decision that we revisit constantly in terms of the balance between allowing somebody to knowingly lie on your air about things they have lied about before and you can predict they are going to lie about, so therefore it is just — it’s irresponsible to allow them to do that. It is a balance between knowing that that is irresponsible to broadcast and also knowing that as the de facto, soon to be de facto nominee of the Republican Party, this is not only the man who is likely to be the Republican candidate for president, but this is the way he is running.”
RUHLE: “Here is how to balance it. We fact-check the hell out of him.”
MADDOW: “Yes, and we do that after the fact, and that is the best remedy we’ve got. It doesn’t fix the fact that we broadcast it, honestly.”
RUHLE: “But it’s stunning that he’s saying these things and people are hearing it. Let’s just go through it, right? That we have the most devastating economy? Are you kidding? We’ve had the best economic recovery of any country in the developed world. He is
Telling the audience out there, oh my good, the paltry oil production, we are producing more oil today than we ever have in the history of our country. Think about the American rescue plan, the infrastructure plan. We’ve created more jobs, 3.2 million more jobs than we had pre-pandemic. The problem that we do have is inflation. So what Donald Trump does is pray upon the fact that people don’t necessarily feel good and life is expensive. But when it comes to facts, here is something that’s absolutely nonsensical and infuriating. When people’s wages go up, they credit themselves, they say, ‘I’m good at my job, I just got a raise,’ but when everything costs more, they blame the government. And wages are up, which is a huge positive, and one of those reasons wages are up is all the union wins in the last two years. Remember, President Biden has stood with those unions.”
