In the moments before Wednesday’s 2020 Democratic presidential candidates on MSNBC, the assembled cast of characters serving as the warm-up didn’t disappoint in bringing their anti-Trump heat to the first Democratic Primary debate.

All In host Chris Hayes launched this attack on the 2016 Republican primaries: “We all watched those Republican debates which were insane. They were the ugliest, most depraved, indecorous displays that anyone had ever seen....we watched them go after each other.”

Not long after Hayes’s nonsense, Deadline: White House host and failed ex-Republican Nicolle Wallace reminisced about Election Night 2016, surprisingly admitting that “when people talk about PTSD, it is in the media too.”

“I mean we got in wrong but Trump didn’t think he was gonna win either,” she added.

Earlier in the pre-debate show, Wallace ruled that the 2020 election cycle will revolve around “saving the country” from President Trump.

As for AM Joy host Joy Reid, she argued that the conditions at the border were created on purpose by the President to hurt illegal immigrants and place them in what she called “concentration camps.”
