Today we present the WORST OF 2023: The Praising and Protecting Old Joe Award.

For the liberal media, any occasion is good if it can be used to bash Donald Trump. And so it was that on Thursday's Morning Joe, historian and occasional Biden speechwriter Jon Meacham used the occasion of December 7th, the 82nd anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, to draw a strained analogy to the challenge facing America in the face of Trump with call outs to threats…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough quoted Hunter S. Thompson calling Richard Nixon evil "in a way that only those who believe in the physical reality of the devil can understand," says Nixon deserves another look, and that Donald Trump takes evil to "a new level."
