Was MSNBC Too Soft On The Koch Brothers?

Was MSNBC's Morning Joe-exclusive interview with the Koch brothers too soft? The brothers and the organizations that they support are expected to budget $889 million to influence the upcoming elections. This is at a time when campaign-finance reform is a major election issue. The hosts reportedly attended a political weekend retreat hosted by the Koch brothers that was closed to the press.

What did you expect? ...What did any of you expect?

Of course the Koch-ain Brothers have a soft side and support humanistic issues too, but I think the point is they are illustrative (due to the enormous size of their 1st Amendment Rights) of the warping in US politics of money that can be legally used to support (buy) lawmakers and laws that benefit their own industrial interests.

I don't understand why you don't talk about the russian crash in the Sinaï, that is so much more important than the Koch Brothers

"I'm kind of like Martin Luther" What a laughable statement 😂😂

Interesting how "liberal" MSNBC devotes their entire morning show to propping up RNC talking points.

Come on guys... you don't get it... He is just like MLK for Very Rich White People rights.

Too bad there wasn't a patriot with a gun present. Kochers need to die...preferably in extreme agony.
