The Regime sycophants at MSNBC wasted no time going into North Korean anchor mode after the conclusion of Vice President Kamala Harris’s “closing argument” speech at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., in an effort to trigger friendly coverage with January 6th contrasts.

MSNBC THE CHRIS HAYES SHOW

CHRIS HAYES: Joining me now: Rachel Maddow, host of The Rachel Maddow Show, Joy Reid, host of The ReidOut on MSNBC. We were speaking before the speech and we got to see it. Rachel, your thoughts?
RACHEL MADDOW: This is a damn good speech. This strikes me as, essentially, the book end to her Democratic National Convention speech. Her acceptance of the Democratic Party’s nomination hit some of the same lines but she knew she was speaking to the Democratic Party and to those that elevated her within that party. Tonight she was speaking to the whole country. She overtly asked for people’s vote, sheovertly reintroduced herself to the country. She said, “I know a lot of people say they don’t know enough about me” I am paraphrasing, but she talked about her upbringing, she talked about having worked most of her career outside of Washington and she ended with a big, you know, presidential flourish, a big vision: “Nearly 250 years ago America was born when we wrested freedom from a petty tyrant. Across the generations, Americans have preserved that freedom and expanded it. And in so doing, proved to the world that a government of, by, and for the people is strong and can endure. The United States of America”, she said, “is not a vessel for the schemes of wanna-be dictators. The United States of America is the greatest idea humanity ever devised.” She is not speaking to people who already support her there. She is speaking to people who may not have been inclined to vote for her, who may not have felt comfortable with her, who may not have felt like there was worthy- it was a worthy cause to get up off the couch and go vote for anybody. She’s there to say, “Listen. I embody the future of this country and the other guy embodies the end of the democratic American experiment”. And it’s worth voting for me because I will protect this country. And that is strength personified. She did a very good job delivering this speech. And I think it was probably the most important speech of her life thus far.
HAYES: Joy.
JOY REID: Indeed, she said “It is time to turn the page on the drama and the conflict. The fear and the division. It’s time to turn the page to a new vision for America.” I wrote that line down as well as the line that Rachel Maddow just read to you. This was an excellent speech, but what strikes me is what she said, talking about herself being a child of the civil rights movement, her parents taking her to marches in a stroller. She described watching her mom work out the bills and figure out how to buy her first home and stay in it at that Formica yellow table. She described a middle class upbringing. An approachable upbringing that people can relate to. A relatable person who talked about working for the people. She talked about her biography a bit. But I think what really struck me was not just the delivery of the speech, which to Rachel’s point was very well done, the setting was iconic. With that cinematic look where you can sort of see the Capitol blurred behind her. The beauty, the vision of it. But we stand at the brink of potentially electing our first woman president. We stand at the brink of doing something that Liberia was able to do, that Pakistan was able to do, that Israel, that England but that we have not done. That Mexico just did. That we stand at the brink of that. And for the 75,000 some odd people who stood at the Ellipse, their memories of the Ellipse, their vision of the Ellipse will not be about January 6th, 2021. It will be about being there tonight, listening to the daughter of immigrants say that the tyrant that we should oppose today is somebody who spurns immigrants, despite two of his three wives being immigrants. It’s somebody whose closing argument was to attack immigrants, to attack strivers, to attack Dreamers, to attack the people who make our country great. And what she says is that America doesn’t have to be made great. It is great. And it’s great because of all of us. And regardless of party, it’s great because of you. And, so this ask for the vote, which is the primary job of a political candidate, I think this ask was put in terms that are both inspiring and fundamental to those of us — you know, we children of immigrants- we have a little bit of a rose-colored view of America. We kind of come with it. We’re kind of born with it- sort of a thing we get when we come out of the womb of our immigrant parent who came here on purpose. And I think whether you are somebody who came and became an American citizen on purpose, deliberately as an immigrant, or somebody whose lineage goes back all the way to the beginning in its flawed beginning, what Kamala Harris is saying you are part of that mosaic. And so I think it was both her best speech, it was her most important speech, and the location of it made it literally iconic.
One expects a certain degree of sycophancy and Democrat derriere osculation from MSNBC. However, even this gushing exceeds the norms. Rachel Maddow and Joy Reid are fawning over what essentially amounts to a redo of a botched early stump speech.
Maddow admits this is a reintroduction, shortly after hailing the speech as “damn good.” She then turns to the portions intended to evoke the American Revolution, citing them as she hails Harris for being “strength personified”, and the embodiment of the future of this country.
Joy Reid took over and also began fawning. Immediately. Reid weaved together various elements of Harris’s life, such as her family’s participation in the civil rights movement, the “middle class upbringing”, and the cinematic look of the speech. Reid exulted about a daughter of immigrants becoming the nation’s first woman president. Reid closes out by calling the speech “literally iconic.”
If it weren’t for Regime Media, we’d have none at all.
