Morning Joe goes all Republican this morning

if we discount Harold Ford, which we can safely do (Keep hanging in there for the token Dem money, Harold !)

Trump's WILD rally last night has been actually talked up, and Mika is apoplectic that Hillary isn't in jail right now. Apparently she was texting Joe last night but he didn't respond .... is he cheatin on her already ???

Scarborough ranted "Hillary's sludging through a tough time right now....."

Halperin said he makes a great VP pick, a great convention and swings into winning the first debate, he can be ahead of her....

Chaffetz and Corker coming up

Joe-Mika is right wing, but doesn't believe that Trump can be affirmatively supported. Find another channel.

CNN has been extensively covering the police shootings. Cell phones with video cameras has really changed everything.

[I have stopped watching. CNN is dry toast but today did it for me. Tomorrow will be the Eddie Munster hour. Wish me luck on the switch.

in one way or another (referring to FBI, email, etc.), 8 about Trump, 3 about Bernie (including HRC embraces ideas from his college tuition plan) though a couple also not sounding flattering at the outset, no mention of Sanders meeting with Democratic caucus.

I tuned in for the last 10 minutes before MSNBC and FOX cut away. Everyone was standing around with their arms folded. Trump was trying desperately to get them fired up but it was a no go.
