OMG I have never loved @NicolleDWallace more than after she described Rudy and Barr as "Two tarantulas in a bowl."

1. Barr is like a tarantula

Not sure what I'd consider Rudy to be

4. If Rudy were a scorpion it would be fun to watch them kill each other.

12. Rudy will never rise above roach

2. This is the reason her show is now on my daily watch list - one of the only ones.

I watch Rachel a lot too, most nights, but I sometimes fall asleep and don't see it all.

8. Obviously Rachel is the top rated show,

I watch her religiously, but I like Nicolle better. Nicolle has the best guests and keeps her show moving. The show isn't about her as sometimes I feel about Rachel. Rachel can take 3 minutes to ask a question or make a point that Nicolle makes in 30 seconds.

I still would never miss Rachel's show, she digs out the dirt, exposes the cockroaches. We need some more like Nicolle and Rachel, Chris Hayes is getting there.

CNN is worthless, it repeats right wing talking points then debates them, I refuse to watch anything but Nicolle, Rachel, and Chris.

18. Agree - those 2 are the best.

I think Nicole is the best communicator and Rachel the best reporter and most thorough. I do always watch some of AM Joy on the Weekends and always watch at least a few min. of Morning Joe. Lately they've had on lots of candidates and I enjoy listening to them.

19. I love them both

I love that Nicolle treats her guests and audiences with respect

She listens to her guests, let's them speak in full paragraphs and manages to keep the conversations on track without interrupting them to talk about what she thinks but everything they say - unlike some hosts who seem to see their guests as foils there just to throw them lines to cue their next diatribe (if they can even get a whole sentence out before being cut off)

I learn something from Rachel every night. I love that she does amazing research and presents it so clearly. Yes, sometimes it takes awhile for her to get where she's going, but she's presenting complicated stuff that can't be explained in two minutes. I also appreciate that she never has panels, but only interviews guests one-on-one.

Rachel and Nicolle are both gems!

3. She also called shitler "President Pinnochio"

Probably not the first time she's said it, but it was a first for me.

Love her show - she's the real deal !

5. Nicolle's show scared the shit out of me today.

Discussed was the NSA and CIA refusing to turn over relevant documents to Trump's impeachment. One of Nicolle's guests Jeremy Bash, who worked in intelligence, stated that the only way the NSA and CIA would refuse to release info to the House intelligence committee would be because of a direct order from Trump.

It sure looks to me that Trump now owns our intelligence agencies.

[Ilsa]

14. Me too. The consolidation of power really began when

Barr was confirmed. Then, the perimeter guards like Mattis, Kelly, etc couldn't stand it any more and expressed their disagreement with the idiot-in-chief, leading to their dismissal or resignations.

I'm really afraid that extremely harsh measures will one day be required if he wins again.

6. We live in a very strange age

Consider that Rick Wilson, one of Trump's fiercest foes, was one of the masterminds behind the Florida recount riots in 2000.

Consider that Nicole Wallace has been a life-long Republican who worked in the "W" White House. She also most infamously was Sarah Palin's handler during John McCain's run for the presidency.

Yet these people who were our political rivals are now our allies!

Strange times.

[Kurt V.]

9. not my allie. never trumper means they will never accept their own actions in giving us trump.

[Hekate]

10. "Infamously was Sarah Palin's handler"? Nicolle refused to vote for John McCain over his choice...

...of Palin. Please do remember that.

[Marcuse]

11. Strange times indeed. What does the future hold?

[radical noodle]

15. Never trumpers are actually better allies

because they understand the inner workings of the party and know how to undermine them. I think the Lincoln Project will do a lot to help elect Democrats in 2020. I have no illusions about them becoming Democrats because they are conservatives, but at least they see trump for the danger he is.

[Hekate]

7. It was really quite a lovely moment

[Kurt V.]

13. 60 recs for ppl who will fight tooth and nail against dems once trump is gone. smh

[MasonDreams]

16. I love how he simplified things, and the ridiculous

Seemed to fall out naked and exposed for all to see. Ice 9 was it? Destroy the earth so our tanks won't get stuck in the mud. The corkscrews in his head were influencing his decisions.

It's all about Us and Them and the Others.
Us 66million, Them 63million, and the Others that didn't vote but could have 100million+

Join Us we'll win. Change Us into a Party you can vote for, not just against Them.👴

Haven't you heard it's a battle of words and most of them are lies.🦊

For want of the price of tea and a slice the old man died.🤦

[Me.]

17. My Fave Of Hers Is...

President Pinocchio

[wryter2000]

20. OMG

Funny. What is it that makes the bowl part so funny?
