I only became aware of the brilliance of Mike Barnicle. When Trump became a presidential nominee, like much of the country, i was horrified, but i felt forced to learn about politics. My interest up to then had only been in women's issues and the bulk or politics felt so overwhelming that even trying to understand it appeared to be impossible. I began to watch MSNBC, CNN, and FOX primarily. MSNBC made the most sense to me and i enjoyed the discussions. Occasionally Mike Barnicle appeared on Morning Joe. He was impressive in his knowledge but also his presentation resonated with wisdom and truth. Mike is the best commentator on the air!

Have a wonderful day with lots of cake!

[texasbluebonnet]

Yes! He is one of the greatest news guys of our time.
