Media pouncing on the fracking issue..MSNBC [View all]

reporter on Chuck Todd’s show did not show any voters but started spouting what they said. Claiming some said Biden needs to explain more. Then mentioned some she talked to were lifelong democrats that switched to republican. And one switched from Republican to Democrat. No evidence of this being “the issue” that changes this election. Yet, the first thing MSNBC does is send a reporter to PA. 🙄 They know Trump needs it to win.
