A Trump adviser tried to spew defamatory lies about the Clintons. Joy Reid was having none of it.
MSNBC host Joy Reid
One day after her epic call-out of pro-Trump pastor Mark Burns, MSNBCs Joy Reid was at it again, shutting down a Trump surrogate who came to defend Donald Trumps racism with defamatory talking points about Hillary Clinton.
On Sunday mornings AM Joy, Diversity Coalition for Trump adviser Stephanie Hamill joined Reid and a panel that included journalists Jennifer Rubin and Anushay Hossain.
Hamill jumped right in with both feet to defend Trumps racist rant about shithole countries, denying the repeatedly verified comments and calling it the biggest fake news story of the week. She then raged that people are angrier at Trump than at the Clintons for getting rich off of poor Haitians, and launched into a completely false conspiracy theory that implied that the Clinton Foundation had ordered a mans killing.
Reid was having none of it, asking if Hamill had been furnished talking points prior to the interview, and putting her on notice that this was not a Trump propaganda channel where such behavior is welcomed.
This is not Fox News, Reid reminded Hamill.

(9,977 posts)The same news about the people the Clintons have killed has been floating around Facebook again. It was there during the campaign and has been brought back. Trump supporters firmly believe that he is working hard for them and that he has done far more to help them in his first year than Obama did in his first year. They also believe that Obama caused the recession. Its hard to know whether these are from Russian trolls or U.S. nuts. Until we somehow cut this type of disinformation out, we may never have a united country again.

(14,249 posts)"Excuse me, its my turn! You be quiet while I speak! Secondly, we do not have system by which anyone can become a citizen or anyone can be here and its circular logic to say we are a nation of laws, therefore these people have to go. They dont have to go. First of all, Congress can make sure that they stay here permanently, secondly the president can extend that, as you say Joy, Haiti, which he just called a shithole, is not a place that these people can return to, particularly after devastation and some very poor policies on behalf of the United States and others.
"And third of all, what kind of person would send back people who have been working here, who have contributed to this country, who have children here, who would be separated from their children, from their communities, what kind of inhumane beastare you raised by wolves?
