POLL: What was the worst media quote of the week? (Vote below)

 

 

NOMINEES: 

 

Chris Hayes Compares Trump Bombing Iran to 9/11 

“Gets far too easy to wave away the loss of human life. It’s priced in. It’s the cost of doing business. Remember, there was one instance in my lifetime when we in America experienced death from above. September 11th, 2001….For us, that kind of violence is an anomaly. It is a once-in-a-lifetime tragedy. For other people, in other countries, the terror is commonplace because, in part, of the kinds of war of aggression that Donald Trump just started.”
— Host Chris Hayes on MS NOW’s All In With Chris Hayes, March 2. 

 

Keith Olbermann: Trump is the “John Wayne Gacy of the Epstein Scandal”

“For Trump, this is no longer a question of malfeasance or graft or theft or impeachment. It is a question of how many dozens of crimes he is guilty of. On Epstein, on the Epstein cover-up alone. He is the Boss Tweed of the Epstein scandal. He is the Bernie Madoff of the Epstein scandal. He is the John Wayne Gacy of the Epstein scandal!”
— Former MSNBC/ESPN host Keith Olbermann on his Countdown podcast, February 26.

 

Morgan Freeman: Trump Reminds Me of Nazi “Brownshirts,” He’s Leading Us “Down a Sh*thole”

“We have somebody sitting in the White House who’s leading us down a shit hole….I’m constantly reminded of Germany in 1935, what was happening there, the Brownshirts, those people that are marching through, particularly Berlin, rounding up people and putting them in box cars and sending them off. Now, this administration wants to build large detention centers and — for what?”
— Actor Morgan Freeman on MS NOW’s The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell, February 26.
