Cuomo is okay in my book. He seems at least a little more impartial. Sure, he will give his opinion, but he also gives time for both sides to talk. Always has opposing viewpoints on his show.
Lemon is just a partisan clown. His show is a joke. I've felt like that since before Trump. And I like Rick Wilson, but Lemon could not have acted less professionally there. He should've just cut Wilson off and moved on. Now, he's a campaign ad for Trump.
I was driving a long way on Sunday and was listening to MSNBC some on Sirius. They were interviewing a GOP guy named Jack. The host and the liberal panelist or whatever got to be so annoying over the radio I had to turn it off. Their points seemed spot on and I liked calling Jack out on his BS...but all the host did was repeat "jack, jack, jack jack jack" to get him to stop talking (and to be honest he often did stop talking pretty quickly) but of course she let the liberal panelist interrupt as needed. And while I agreed with what they were saying, it felt like a setup and was unlistenable. I wish I knew who the host was...female is all I know. I would avoid 100%.
Now, in heaven's name, would you do something like this, if it was a "perfect" call?
Washington (CNN)The White House has issued a formal threat to former national security adviser John Bolton to keep him from publishing his book, "The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir," sources familiar with the matter tell CNN.
The White House had no comment. Neither Bolton nor a spokesman for the publisher, Simon & Schuster, responded to a request for comment.
The letter comes in the midst of President Donald Trump attacking Bolton on Twitter, and Bolton's lawyer accusing the White House of corrupting the vetting process for Bolton's book by sharing the contents of the book with those outside the National Security Council's Records Management Division.
Didn't Manchin just get reelected in 2018? Therefore I don't think he would really have to worry about his stance. I could be wrong.
Yes, you're right. Also Jones from Alabama but I think he is up for the senate this year again, since he was a special election. I bet he votes 'nay' on removal.
However, like most of CNN, he brings nothing but truth.
"The President of the United States of America is racist." He let that line sit out there for a good 8 seconds with a matching chyron one night. It was PF amazing.

Vulnerable was a poor word choice. Meant those who are in generally tentative seats.
I think it was the right choice. He's perpetually vulnerable, as a Democrat in a deep red state.
I like to think they can focus on legislating for 4 years or so before the soul-crushing dread of their next election starts to kick in
I think that's true, but whatever the vote is here might come back to haunt him. If Trump is the president during his next campaign, you can be sure that's the ad that will run. By contrast, if half the country gets their collective brains and souls back, it could be a positive to vote to remove. That's the gamble he will have to take. So since there's puts and takes on both sides, hopefully he will just vote his conscience.
I think Doug Jones votes nay though. He is up this year I believe.

Agree completely with just about all of this, although I'm skeptical whether people will still care about the impeachment vote in 2024. At least the *2020* impeachment vote.
What you're saying gets to my larger point about how we on here focus a lot of energy on the vulnerable Rs and don't really acknowledge how the vulnerable Ds might swing some of these votes.

Sounds like Manchin, Jones and Sinema according to Politico.

Yes 100% agree on vulnerable dems.

First things first is to get the witnesses. I don't think there is any doubt these three will vote against that. If Bolton's testimony is as explosive as advertised, would make it tough on them to not vote for removal.

Interesting. I'm reading it the other way. Schumer said his caucus is united on the topic. I don't see how they vote against witnesses. Might as well exit the D at that point.

Lemon and Cuomo are kind of aggravating. I don't know what it is, but they don't know how to subtly drop their opinion. It's over the top. I like Cooper and Wolf, but the rest of the CNN cast is not very talented.
Cuomo is okay in my book. He seems at least a little more impartial. Sure, he will give his opinion, but he also gives time for both sides to talk. Always has opposing viewpoints on his show.
Lemon is just a partisan clown. His show is a joke. I've felt like that since before Trump. And I like Rick Wilson, but Lemon could not have acted less professionally there. He should've just cut Wilson off and moved on. Now, he's a campaign ad for Trump.
Cuomo tries to be too impartial. He brings a lot of right wing Idiots spouting lunacy and he never plays journalist and asks tough follow up questions.

And he gives Kelly Ann CONway a platform to spew her nonsense and filibuster any type of response that calls out her bullshit. Why anyone has her on is beyond me.
