This interview was so hard hitting that it spun me around.

He smacked his girlfriend at the Cannes film festival so hard she spun around. Great reporting MSNBC. I’m sure you’ll pull this comment down in seconds.

It is disgusting how MSNBC ignores and covers up, Doug Emhoff's abusive behavior toward women.

[dondon]

It's not about Abortion rights. It's about a woman's health throughout her life, especially when she is bearing children. It's is stunning how many problems arise with pregnancies that must be dealt with. Now due to the SCOTUS, doctors are afraid to give the needed medical treatment when a woman needs it. How could our society become this cruel.

The nanny also miscarried from his abuse

What a wonderful man Doug Emhoff is. He's so down to earth and genuine.

Great that Kamala has such a good guy as a husband. He is a really great speaker and will be such an asset to Kamala and the people of the USA.

[Mochahontas]

I absolutely admire Mr. Emoff he’s an exceptional stand up guy.

I don’t think someone who got his wife’s nanny pregnant them paid 80k to cover it up and then physically abused his girlfriend in 2012 is the way we want to be redefining masculinity Jen…

[tammyscatterton]

This is about the Reproductive Rights not getting the care they need when ectopic pregnancy to miscarriage . So tired of men telling women about their boby . You got to love Doug. So sick Trump threats name calling & lies

[AmazingJohnny]

Mister Doug is an amazing man and kind person ! He will be a fantastic First Gentleman !

[Fluuuv]

I LOVE how normal and at ease he seems with his wife. Bring back normal people in politics.

[Snickerdoods.x]

Kamala and Doug are *the* power couple and it'll be wonderful to see another loving family in the White House, as opposed to DJT's family's coldness.

[DebbieNielsen-er]

Kamala & Doug are two people who care about the issues that affect the people because it affects them also

[fdrstan]

I’ve been a Chill Doug fanboy since before it was cool. 😂

Real Americans for Harris 🇺🇸

[barbarafield]

I will finally be able to relax totally when Kamala and Tim are sworn in and Doug and Gwen are there supporting them. Vote💙everyone

[valvisions]

Doug...My father was a devoted Jewish man and like you ..a supporter to women. Thank you for your honesty.

[LynnNickles-sxtt]
