At the start of Saturday morning's edition of "The Weekend" on MSNBC, co-host Symone Sanders-Townsend broke the news about voter outreach efforts by Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign in the key battleground states needed to beat Donald Trump.The numbers she quoted stunned co-host Michael Steele...
It’s still kind of shocking that Michael Steele was head of the RNC. He was there when it went completely bat-shit insane (more than it already was, that is)… He was eyewitness to it. 2009 through 2011, he got to watch his political party become the “Tea Party” and embrace bonkers conspiracy theories like birtherism in real time.
I wonder what that was like for him? Near as I can tell, he was a genuine Republican true believer, then got a ring-side seat to the utter collapse of anything even resembling a political party, to be replaced by the foundations of today’s rabid “Republican” cult.
