John Podesta Still Complaining About Popular Vote...

Breitbart -- Hillary Clinton’s ex-campaign chief John Podesta is complaining again about the fact that his failed campaign still won the popular vote in the 2016 presidential election.

In a podcast interview with Politico’s Susan Glasser, Podesta spoke about the “burden” he felt by losing the election, digging up old talking points about Trump having the nuclear codes.

“We bear responsibility and it’s a great burden and I feel it every day,” Podesta said when asked about the campaign. “I mean, we lost this election; we won the popular vote by 3 million votes, but we lost the Electoral College and lost the election to Donald Trump.”

He also complained about the letter to Congress from James Comey, clarifying that the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private emails was still open and again pointed to Vladimir Putin having a “grudge” against Clinton.

He tried to soften the blow of losing, pointing out that the campaign could have done more in Wisconsin, but that Pennsylvania was already lost.

“But you know, at the end of the day, we lost Pennsylvania anyway, and we had thrown everything we could at Pennsylvania,” he admitted.

Blog Author's Comments: Podesta and Hillary both would have been charged for their crimes and prosecuted to the maximum if they were Republicans. They both still need to be investigated to the maximum. Ex FBI Director Comey already clearly laid out the charges Clinton is guilty of, but he let it slide, perhaps knowing that AG Loretta Lynch would do nothing with whatever evidence was presented. But all we hear from Podesta, Hillary and the Democrats are more excuses for why they lost.

This is why the Russian debacle took place. It was an attempt at distraction, just like a video was with Benghazi. Podesta knew what the real game was (getting 270 or more electoral votes). Hillary didn't get the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency, so she loses. Podesta is demonstrating that not only is he a whiner and wimp, but an incompetent one as well. He is desperate to rile up the left using emotions and fundamentally false logic. The Left has no convincing argument today, not one. They do this to keep their lunatic base engaged and angry.

MSNBC Tells Schultz - No More 'Psycho Talk'

Ed Schultz ordered by MSNBC to discontinue 'Psycho Talk'
dailycaller - MSNBC host Ed Schultz announced Thursday on his radio show that his “Psycho Talk” segment had been discontinued by MSNBC executives.

“I work for somebody,” said Schultz. “I don’t call all the shots.”

Following the abrupt departure of Keith Olbermann from the network, Schultz’s show on MSNBC was moved from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.

“There’s probably people in positions that are a helluva lot smarter than I am and have decided that that’s what the way it’s going to be,” Schultz said in an uncharacteristically servile response to the decision.

On January 11, following the Tucson shooting, Schultz said that he had not intention of discontinuing the segment. “As long as they open their mouths over there on the right, we will continue to have the segment called ‘Psycho Talk,’” said Schultz.

Schultz has been on thin ice with network executives before. According to the New York Post, NBC News President Steve Capus and MSNBC President Phil Griffin threatened to fire Schultz in August following a newsroom rant in a fury over a lack of promotion for his show.

Blog author's comments - Schultz must be on the short list for a pink slip. Comcast doesn’t want to keep putting money into losers. I have never watched this show except for occasional on-line clips.

First it was Olbermann next it will be Schultz. Eventually they will get to Chris Matthews who has the lowest rated show on MSNBC.

This entire group at MSNBC is in the tank for Obama. Their focus is to do the best they can to clear the way for Obama's reelection in 2012, and to do this they try to take out anyone on the right who may be a threat to this goal.

Like most liberals they never debate or discuss but only call people names or scream at them. When they take Schultz off the air, Al Sharpton and many liberal politicians will never get any air time.

Now that GE has sold the network to Comcast the new owner just might want to make a profit or at least break even so they have started to clean house.
