Joe Scum denigrating liberals this AM

Wholesale.

You cannot trust a Republican. Ever. They revert immediately.

He is trying to say that the latte drinking liberals in the suburbs don’t have a clue as to handle the problems of the cities. Meaning Black and brown individuals of course.

Here we go.

the war criminal George W Bush. Her adoration of the Bush family is a serious stain against her.
Sure she has left the party over the Con and I agree with some of the things she says these days, but I will never trust her until she publicly addresses her support for Bush and Cheney - she worked with them and endorsed their war crimes. Sorry - this bourgeois bitch ain't trusting one of them. Now for another up of Blue Mountain coffee.

I will never trust him. He does it all the time. John Heilemann just said that the one thing you didn't hear last night was whether she was qualified. Here we have this fucking semi-literate, ignoramus winging it president and he believed that anyone in their right mind could raise the issue about her qualifications,

Both of them. I am a poor person from Seattle and neither of them know the city. The two Seattle officers I know are racists. There is no amount of training that will change them.

I don't trust never trumpets or anybody siding with us now. The Republican party has been plain as day for 60 years. So if you just figured it out because of Trump I don't trust you. You'll take us back to bush and company in a by minute and tell us the Republican party wasn't like that then.You let them do all kinds of shi t to Obama. Fuck yalll. The people figuring it out because of covid.......... Did you pay attention to the last 4 years?????? Furthermore when he held back help from cities and states he didn't like you said Jack shit. Fuck them too.. Make those tickets prove and keep proving it, forever. I give them zero credit for anything they are doing now. When they show who they are the first time believe them.

He was citing a NY Times article which was referring to White Liberals trying to unilaterally implement anti-police policies on behalf of African American citizens who have a more nuanced view of criminal justice needs in their communities. Which, by the way, Al Sharpton agreed with.

The 'abolish the police' types are not Dems or liberals, but illiberal leftists and anarchists who generally dislike Dems.

That's what Rev Al was getting at also that communities of color need police reform, and not to abolish the police, which would simply leave such communities exposed to crime.

Morning Joe's show is doing well at bringing in moderate voters - because at the same time while critiquing elements of the left they're also praising the Dem ticket and beating down on Trump.

Joe lapses into that liberal Heating antipathy which he was known for all those years before Trump. It comes flying out of his mouth reflexively and it was a return to the old days of that fashion of speech. Cokie Roberts Used to do the same thing herself when she would use the word Democrats she would spit it out as though it was moldy cottage cheese. When she would say the word Republican it was with that refined accent she had adopted.

since what they're talking about has nothing to do with liberals. (the term 'latte liberal' also is term invented by RW radio).

I view it as them being somewhat out of touch and lacking the proper words/concepts to describe things.

I think in a clumsy way they were actually trying to defend Kamala's law and order record, by saying PoC do want policing but don't want police abuse.
