You can stop looking for the top example of Trump Derangement Syndrome, because it was found on Wednesday's MSNBC Live. In a New Year's Day segment that could end up on a future year-in-review, Hillary Mann Leverett went all in for Iran and their Kata'ib Hezbollah proxies that killed an American on Friday and injured four soldiers.
MSNBC, the network that has never seen a "Trump is coddling our enemies" angle to a story it did not indulge, took time on Tuesday to blame President Trump and the U.S. for the deteriorating situation in Iraq as pro-Iranian militia elements and their supporters besieged the U.S. embassy in Baghdad Tuesday evening Baghdad time.

For media who have spent the fast few years focused on the narrative, Assange was seen as the face that symbolized the threat posed to the United States by Russia, second only to Vladimir Putin.
