Joy Reid and Steve Schmidt Deliver Deranged Trump-Hitler Rant That Shows How Insane MSNBC Truly Is

Bonchie reporting for RedState 

In the battle for which left-wing network is the craziest, CNN has put up a good fight. In the end, though, MSNBC continues to take the crown. A bonkers segment during Joy Reid's primetime show (yes, they gave her a primetime show) on Monday perfectly illustrated that. 

Reid has created her own insane asylum on MSNBC where she shuffles through a variety of delusional guests. One of her favorites is Steve Schmidt, who once worked for John McCain before becoming a left-wing co-founder of The Lincoln Project. What a coincidence, right?

Schmidt has become known for late-night social media blitzes where he puts up hundreds of posts in a row that expose his mental state. He's also made some of the most deranged statements to ever grace the cable news airwaves, and he was locked and loaded during his most recent appearance with Reid. 

You have to love how Reid nods along intently as if Schmidt is sharing something absolutely brilliant and mind-blowing. I also think she may have set a record for the most blinks in one minute. Regardless, where do you even begin with something that stupid?

For starters, no, Adolf Hitler did become the Fuhrer within six months. I know that seems like a petty thing to point out given he did complete his seizure of power in about a year and a half, but I'm not the one making insane comparisons on MSNBC. Schmidt wants to claim that "six months" is a dog whistle when it doesn't even make sense as a dog whistle. 

There's also no evidence that Trump's plan to go after overbloated bureaucracies is some secret path toward dictatorship. If it were, the former president would have just executed that plan prior to leaving office. Again, Schmidt's entire premise doesn't even make any sense. Why leave the White House in the first place if the goal is to be a dictator?

Besides that, even if Trump wanted to become a dictator, there is no scenario within the current governmental system that would allow that. Because the United States is a republic, every state would simply refuse to go along with such a gambit. Further, the federal military would never cooperate with any attempted dictatorship. And if the suggestion is that it'd be more subtle through actions of Congress, there are nowhere near enough votes to bestow Trump the title of leader for life.

It's dumb that I'm even having to go through these ridiculous hypotheticals. They aren't happening, and they have no possibility of happening. MSNBC is home to nothing but conspiratorial nutjobs, and they should be treated as such.
