MSNBC Immediately Cuts Away From Trump’s Election Conference: “Here We Are Again In The Unusual Position Of Correcting The President Of The US”

I wish more media outlets would have done this, starting in 2016.

Donald J. Trump’s time as president is almost certainly ending, his campaign is on death’s door, and he is panicking. At this current point in time a few battleground states are counting up the last of their (very legal) ballots and much to the President’s dismay they are pointing towards a Biden victory.

Trump has made attempts to cast doubt on the voting process on Twitter, inciting his followers to chant selectively and simultaneously “STOP THE COUNT” in one state and “COUNT EVERY VOTE” in another. He has also made sure to send out his crew of obnoxious offspring to do whatever they can, tweet out whatever misspelled nonsense that comes to their mind in a feeble attempt to corrupt this election. Thursday evening, however, he decided to make an appearance at the White House and if you thought he was going to graciously concede then you may have been in a coma for the last four years.

Trump started by declaring victory (if you only count the legitimate votes) and he did not last much longer after that. Moments later producers at MSNBC signaled to cut away from the President because they had to fact check the few things he had said at this point:

“Here we are again in the unusual position of not only interrupting the President of the United States but correcting the President of the United States, he continued by correcting him, “There are no illegal votes that we know of, there has been no Trump victory that we know of.”

Trump went on shouting about how he was the best and how the Democrats were stealing the election with the magic of counting people’s votes in one last affront on the White House, and one last insult on him being President of the United States.

If you want to see how the media should and probably will treat Trump now here it is:
