I understand she wanted to move on, but the country has NEVER had a press secretary as sharp, personable, and well-prepared as she was, and she NEVER lost her cool, and the Foxsucker contingent NEVER tripped her up once.

If ever there was a worthy successor of Rachel Maddow, Psaki is it, although giving her MTP--if it stays in its current form--would be a blessing as well. I would prefer that "Meet The Press" return to its pre-Russert days of being exactly what its title implies, with a revolving group of three journalists chosen for their familiarity with the guest's area of work, asking pertinent questions. In other words, meet the real press, not some host chosen to make the show about himself with the occasional sitting president to spice up viewer interest.

I attend something like that every new year, and NO ONE is allowed to go without a name tag, no matter how well they are known, e.g.:

The point of our little gathering is that nobody is more important than anyone else, so we all wear the name tags, no matter if we’re famous or unknown.

Just thought it was funny. But honestly a great idea. Can you see Trump agreeing to that?

Bill grew up in a home that was normal. Grandiose would not suit him. He is too down to earth.

Also she should be on MSNBC as a host for at least an hour daily. This is my knee-jerk wish list right now. I just can't wait for her to start!

They are killing Ali Velshi and who can take 4 hours of Joe proclaing he is one of the last decent, honorable Republicans. He was at the front of persecuting Clinton. And allowed Trump to call in every day long after the others refused. They
