Tom Brokaw Has Ideas On How To Unify The Country | Morning Joe | MSNBC

  1. How about Mitch giving the common man a stimulus boost instead of wealthy donors and Corporations. His salary $190,000; $34 Million Net Worth!

    1. Like that is ever going to happen. Moscow Mitch would cut off his right arm before he’d ever give the common man an inch.

    2. @Tomorrow will be deleted blocked or silenced Maybe we should just stop giving Trump, Mitch and the Republican Party inches than, because they’ve been taking thousands of miles for decades.

    3. Actually in reality the stimulus checks have been held up by Nancy Pelosi just because she doesn’t want president Trump’s signature on them yet she’s worth an estimated 114 million dollars.
      tinyurl.com/yytnz4tg 😳

    4. @William H Music 2020 Actually the stimulus was held up by Cocaine Mitch since he refused to the hero’s act in may. Tbh, I’m kinda glad that a stimulus wasn’t passed because sadly it could have won Trump a 2nd term.

    1. …exactly, Make America Great Again…use Obama and Bush on a committee…kinda like Obama did asking Biden to analyze school violence and come back with solutions – still waiting for that Biden commission report…lark

    1. @R Bess …hypocrisy much!… you come from the party that held a grudge and blamed for 4 FRIGGIN YEARS and then write what you just wrote….republicans are inclusive, that’s why more minorities turned to them then ever, realizing the destruction the democrats have done to them. Hate, as you describe, exudes and secretes from the left, the burning, the looting, the selfishness…just stop your idiotic grandstanding and look around….I know what I am, and I know what you are…..

    2. @Dan Krohn I’m afraid that you do not know me Dan, no matter how much you like to think that you do. It is unfortunate that you feel the way you do. It appears that, with your reply, you answered the last question I asked, which is also unfortunate. I wish you the best Dan.

    3. @R Bess …get help, you support a party that called half of America deplorable, chumps, or worse, just listen to Michelle Obama’s pathetic “unity” speech. Stop trying to frost a turd, it’s still a turd. Good luck to you too.

    1. ​@Shockwave 11 that’s a pretty overly simplistic thing to say, considering the answer is obvious, you know, an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind kind of thing… But I do see your point, there is a sort of saturation point that can happen where one party or movement becomes so destructive, it becomes a necessity to break one’s one moral code, to do ANYTHING to stop it. Genghis Khan and the Mongols for example, or Hitler and the Nazis. (worst band name ever). Thankfully, I don’t think we are at that point yet with Trump and his irrational loyalists.

    2. @Shockwave 11 Amen to that. Going high against republicans means getting cheated out of legitimate elections. We must fight fire with fire and without relent.

    3. Because the definition of the Democratic party is reason and reasonableness, where that of the Republican party, these days is blind obedience to the party agenda and party’s corporate backers.

  2. I admire Tom Brokaw, I worked for NBC News as an IT analyst. He was always gracious and welcoming. I really like his idea to help unify our country.

    1. @Cliff Medina You can lie to all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you cannot lie to all the people all the time

    2. It’s obvious Joe’s faced challenges, which develops character vs the Donald family which grifts & creates a charity to pickpocket… disgraceful!

    1. @Dan Krohn Yes, my liberal arts PhD gets me a larger salary than your whole family, you uncultured peasant.

    2. @Chris Anaxagoras …your liberal arts PhD gets you an egotistical ticket to be a jerkwaite numbskul with more supposed credential than sense, typical of the species…too friggin funny

    3. @French blue8 Just telling it like it is. The cult tell each other all the time that it is their “critical thinking skills” that enables them to discern their imaginary “global pedophile rings”, and it appears that 71 million people voted for the cult leader, so . . .

    1. @Peter C WTF??? MyCvid didn’t say anything about race, YOU did! I’m pretty sure they were referring to the dim witted frump supporters. I’m pretty sure you already knew this but are so detached from reality that you are attempting to divert this into a race thing to avoid facing your own lack of comprehension.

      Hence, the difficulty in reasoning with the cultists.

    2. @A Flock of Beagles You clearly didn’t know who he was quoting..check your facts and then apologise..unless you are a racist

  3. In the UK when a prime minister loses an election. The removal van shows up at no 10 downing Street the next day to avoid situations like these . No messing about no lame duck period. You out mate. End of.

    1. As a Brit and now an American I’d say though that the President is also head of state. No removal vans are going to head over to Buckingham Palace anytime soon. Apples and oranges. Hopefully though Don the Con will get the message soon enough. Or else…

  4. “We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.” – Walt Disney.

    1. The only reason we don’t have voter ID is because the Democrats keep blocking it so they can continue… VOTER FRAUD!

    2. ​@Cliff Medina Are you joking? 33 states request or require you to show an ID when you vote, including Democrat states like Hawaii, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Washington, Delaware, Colorado, and New Hampshire. In addition, Nebraska, a hard Republican state, requires no ID to vote. I’m not even that much of a democrat but you should think about staying quiet and just letting everyone think you’re a fool before you open it and remove all doubt.

  5. You’re right, Tom. At the hospital, we leave our politics at the door. We just do what needs to be done to save lives.

  6. Sorry America, you don’t look anything like the greatest nation on Earth anymore. It looks broken and foolish.

  7. Find ways to identify and shatter echo-chambers that distort reality for the American people. Conspiracy theories, provable toxic bias, and Q-Anon garbage are a poison in our nation. Unless we can find common ground using science, data, logic, compassion, and reason, we are doomed to a future of in-fighting and division.

  8. Lovely guy. I can never remember not hearing him on the nightly news, his voice in the background even when I was a little kid
