Pundit Jonathan Chait Denies That Liberals Enabled Trump
To borrow a phrase from President Obama, let New York magazine’s Chait be clear: “Republicans nominated Donald Trump [because] Republican voters like Donald Trump. This theory has the virtues of simplicity and truth.” Chait’s peg for his Friday post, however, was an “alternate theory” he rejects: that “Trump prevailed at least in part because liberals blew their credibility by hyperbolically…

Chris Cuomo Calls Out Tim Kaine on Sanctuary Cities Existence
Sanctuary cities? What are they? I never heard of them. They must be phantoms.

This election is over! You got that? Hillary Clinton has already won.
Only one not so little problem. The one making this declaration is none other than the Eddie Mush of politics aka Bob Shrum.

NY Mag Writer: Conservatives Like ‘Highly Emotional’ Fake News
Shorter version of Brian Feldman’s Wednesday article: Sure, Mark Zuckerberg’s a genius, but he still hasn’t come up with a foolproof way to keep Facebook from promoting right-wing propaganda. “Facebook’s problem isn’t that it suppresses ‘conservative news’ or allows ‘fake news,’” wrote Feldman. “It’s that those two categories are increasingly indistinguishable.”
Press Left Seething for Being Left Behind on Trump’s Trip to Mexico

While filling in for the host of All In With Chris Hayes on Thursday night, MSNBC's Joy-Ann Reid clashed with Steve Cortes, a supporter of Donald Trump, asking her Latino guest not to use the word “illegals” because he was “offending or disturbing or offending lots of people who are listening.”

Chuck Todd Warns Trump Against ‘Rabbit Hole’ of Clinton ‘Obsession’
Generally, it’s not a good idea to take advice from people who don’t have your interests at heart. On Friday, NBC’s Chuck Todd advised Donald Trump to stay away from the “rabbit hole” of Clinton “obsession.” MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell fretted that the hiring of David Bossie is a “nightmare in Clinton world.”
NYT: Wall-to-Wall Bias Over Trump, Illegals, and ‘Sanctuary Cities'
Friday’s New York Times featured wall-to-wall scare-mongering over Donald Trump’s opposition to illegal immigration, and placed the perfectly respectable term “sanctuary cities” in scare quotes, as if was somehow out of bounds. Reporter Julia Preston, perhaps the paper’s worst offender when it comes to producing biased, pro-amnesty stories (and that's some stiff competition), struck twice in…

MSNBC’s Melber Slams Clinton Surrogate’s Lame Excuse for Ducking Press
It’s been 273 days since Hillary Clinton last held a press conference and even some on MSNBC are starting to lose patience with Clinton’s antics that even-keeled legal correspondent Ari Melber flipped out during Thursday’s Hardball on EMILY’s List president Stephanie Schriock for the shameless talking point that Clinton “talk[s] to the press all the time.”

NBC Skips News that State Dept. Will Release Clinton’s Full Schedule
