Looks like the wingnuts got another scalp. I’m no fan of former Bushie and both siderist Matthew Dowd and am not going to shed any tears about missing his commentary on the network, but the spineless executives at MSNBC decided to fire him for saying something that was true about the Charlie Kirk shooting.
Dowd made an appearance on MSNBC this Wednesday afternoon, and after discussing Utah’s lax gun laws while they were still waiting for more information on how badly Kirk was injured, host Katy Tur asked Dowd to “talk about the environment in which a shooting like this happens.”
Here’s Dowd’s response, which apparently had all the wingnuts, like Jesse Watters, up in arms and demanding his firing:
DOWD: Yeah, and again, I just want to emphasize what you just emphasized, we don’t know any of the full details of this, that we don’t know if this was a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration, or so, we have no idea of this.
But following up with what was just said, he’s been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures, in this, who is constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech, or sort of aimed at certain groups.
