      @@slip-n-slide4807 He's using a metaphor about how Politicians on both sides are pandering to extreme fringe voters even though they KNOW better and in doing so are abandoning the middle (Reality) where their responsibility in Governance lies. Politicians on both sides are joining up with the ignorant mobs of professional whiners who solely exist to complain and argue in hyperbole and bad faith, selfish self righteous people who want nothing more than to burn it all down if they don't get their way. A Politicians job in Government isn't to pander to the mob, it's to cut through the BS rhetoric of the minority extremes and find common ground in the middle as to improve the lives of ALL Americans. We've always had our fringes in society, it's only today Politicians are actively pandering to them and he see's what it's doing to our Country and it scares him.

      This is the guy who FAKED news stories and got fired from the main anchor position at NBC and was relegated to the outer limits at MSNBC with 1/15th the audience. His creeping nihilism is in no small part due to HIS spreading phony stories and becoming nothing more than a shill for the liberal agenda. He is not a NEWS reporter he is a commentarian like Hannity, Maddow and Carlson, but with a devious disguise.

    I started educating myself on American politics at the end of 2015 . Well I definitely picked the right time .
    I live in the UK and the best way to get any information was to watch as many news shows as I could . Brian was the first presenter that I came across and on reflection I am so glad I did after then seeing another news channel who were blatantly openly biased towards one candidate.
    My goal was to be neutral but I have to admit I did curry favour with Brian who’s brave style of just coming right out with that question was so refreshing instead of those who never challenged those answers and just moved on .
    I wish him well as he gets off that roundabout.xx
