MSNBC host admits the media is going overboard on Biden while ignoring Trump
At the conclusion of a segment detailing President Joe Biden's struggles to convince voters he's up to the task of serving a second term, MSNBC host Katie Phang was put on the spot by an anti-Donald Trump Republican for the media's conduct since the presidential debate which took place over a week ago.
As Phang attempted to wrap up the segment, GOP strategist Susan Del Percio excitedly interrupted her to complain about the overall conduct of reporters who are still beating the story to death.
"I just wish the Democrats would stop talking about it.," Del Percio argued. "[Former House Speaker] Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) saying, was this a condition or is it an episode? That leads the media to follow. Sorry, it just is!"

"Let me be clear, and I am probably making a lot of people angry right now, they're telling me I need to wrap , but here is the deal" Phang replied before pausing and adding, "Because we talk about it, and I want to be clear, I am talking about it on my show because I think it is an important thing to acknowledge why it's been a disservice but I agree with you, Danielle [Moody] and Susan Del Percio, that we need to move on from it and focus on the critical issues like Project 2025."
"And the last thing I will do is this, President Biden said in the interview last night, it is about the character of the president, the character of the president will determine if the Constitution is employed in the right way. If you believe in that, that is not Donald Trump," she added.
