  1. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, this is exactly what people need, how to cope and deal with trump’s narcissistic sociopathic chaos. 👏👏👏💙

    1. Huge: More ‘Better Off’ Under Trump than Clinton, Bush, and Obama
      -Washington Examiner: A record 63% of Americans say they are better off now than they were before President Trump took office 3 years ago, according to a new Gallup poll, 140220. “What’s more, people give Trump much more credit for the improved economy than former President Barack Obama, [whose] supporters have been claiming credit.”
      Under President Trump, real change is happening. The booming jobs market has brought African-
      American and Hispanic-American ‼️unemployment to historic lows. Wage gains are boosting pay for low-income workers 🇺🇸 more than white-collar ones.

    2. Kimberly Howard how can someone become this blind ? I think I know the answer, it’s a cult and you are the sheep.

  2. Exactly we need to unite, WE THE PEOPLE ARE MORE!!!!
    Stand in your POWER, because it is OUR DEVINE RIGHT!!
    Vote BLUE!!

    1. @amity 150
      Can’t wait till you big talking liberals grow the balls to actually try to take down the president by force .
      Patriotic veterans are itching to exterminate domestic traitors .

    2. @gennaterra A vacant Vermont US Senate seat is a shoo-in for any Democrat or left-leaning Independent. Of all the senators running for president, Sanders’ seat is the only one to be guaranteed to remain on the left.

  3. Thanks Rachel and Prof Snyder. Scary times need smart and brave people speaking out and people of good character need to defend them.

    1. “First they came for the Jews
      and I did not speak out
      because I was not a Jew.
      Then they came for the Communists
      and I did not speak out
      because I was not a Communist.
      Then they came for the trade unionists
      and I did not speak out
      because I was not a trade unionist.
      Then they came for me
      and there was no one left
      to speak out for me.”

      It needs repeating over and over. If we don’t stand with those under attack there willl be nobody there for us when we’re under attack

    1. @Ken Bugbee The 1%ers are doing better than they have in my lifetime, the rest of us get Minimum wage Jobs and the privilege of paying Bonespurs Tariffs, Ivan.

  4. We are the many and the many are eternal. Have courage, do the right thing and you’ll not be alone. Serve your self and that is all you’ll have.

  5. America needs people like you Rachel Maddow. I see the absolute shock on your face and the chaos current events has created within. I see too your strength in moving on it and doing something about what’s happening.

  6. Rachel , I always watch , some nights I watch again (the repeat)…I trust and believe your opening monologue….and then always enjoy your informative guest’s . My friend you are way too modest & humble….👍 👍 ✌

  7. @1:19 And there you have it American voters! STAND UP!! Do not go about your daily lives believing all is well. Stand up! Speak up! Our constitution is being tampered with.

  8. The lesson the our country is learning, is that we do recognize the true heroes . Americans had the opportunity to view them in the hearings. The patriots stood out for their service to our country, their non political stance and,their willingness to stand up for justice and truth! Juxtaposed to the rampant disregard for our laws displayed by the Republicans .

  9. Tyrants are easy to spot. Just look for those around them dancing to every whim of the alleged tyrant. Seem familiar?
