Thursday on Morning Joe, co-host Mika Brzezinski made a prediction about the presidential debates forthcoming this fall: Hillary Clinton will “slaughter” Donald Trump. The liberal host said this only moments after she expressed desire for a “nice, peaceful convention” for Democrats next week in Philadelphia, contrasted with the current Republican convention in Cleveland that she believes has been consumed with “horrible, despicable things.”

Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd began with a prediction of his own, that the DNC in Philadelphia is going to be “boring” and wondered what the Clinton folks are going to do “to make a little more drama.”

CHUCK TODD: By the way, do you think we are going to have any drama next week? MIKA BRZEZINSKI: [Laughter] TODD: I’m sitting here going. Next week is going to be so boring. I mean it’s just going to be—they’re going to do everything—

If the biggest event for the Democrats in the 2016 presidential election is “boring” perhaps that is indicative of their nominee. Sticking with the “boring” theme, Brzezinski wished for a “nice, peaceful” convention.

BRZEZINSKI: Let’s just have a nice, peaceful convention that's unified and doesn't have things like lock her up and horrible, despicable things being shouted from the audience, like, let's not get ahead of ourselves. This has not been pretty, at all.

As for the highly anticipated presidential debates this fall, there were varied predictions around the table. Naturally, Brzezinski had to take it to the extreme, insisting Clinton will “slaughter” Trump.

MARK HALPERIN: You look at Trump's performance last night and if you're Clinton people and you’re thinking what do we need to be worried about? The debates. He showed last night his sense of how to dominate a room. Even under adverse conditions. In the debate, I think he could have more of that up his sleeve. BRZEZINSKI: I think she'll slaughter him. JOE SCARBOROUGH: By the way, I do not. Oh come on you're not going to underestimate Donald at this point? BRZEZINSKI: Uh. You’re, oh come on. On policy? You're not going to underestimate Hillary Clinton. HALPERIN: They both had big moments.

The rationale of Halperin and Scarborough is undeniable, Donald Trump has proved time and again he can dominate a stage. What is troubling about Brzezinski is her insistence that the RNC in Cleveland has been filled with “horrible” and “despicable” things, yet she audaciously predicts Hillary Clinton will “slaughter” Donald Trump in the fall.

This is a classic example of the hypocrisy at MSNBC, touting their liberal hosts who spew divisive, hateful rhetoric while they simultaneously accuse Republicans of the same behavior. Quite the double standard.
