Rachel Maddow is like the left’s version of Bernie Sanders on cable TV. The left loves this butch, better than life itself. She’s basically their god. But now some on left are attacking the Maddow sacred cow for pushing a bullshit conspiracy theory against against Trump. Even left wing crap sites like Huffington Post are calling out Butch Maddow. Usually, it’s CNN pushing crazy conspiracy theories against Trump. I guess old Butchy just couldn’t resist the temptation. Maddow still hasn’t recovered from it’s “Trump tax” embarrassment.
Rachel Maddow meltdown – leftists attack it’s conspiracy theory |

MSNBC star Rachel Maddow’s latest anti-Trump conspiracy theory was so outlandish that even the dependably liberal HuffPost criticized it as “so flimsy that it could be debunked by a quick glance at a map.”
On Thursday evening, “The Rachel Maddow Show” opened with a somber 25-minute diatribe that attempted to connect the tragic ambush attack that killed four American soldiers in Niger to the latest version of President Trump’s proposed travel ban, which included the nation of Chad. Maddow essentially claimed that the inclusion of Chad, which recently pulled its troops out of Niger, in the revised travel ban resulted in extremist attacks such as the one that left four Americans dead.
The HuffPost, which is so anti-Trump that it refused to even cover him in the political section during the early stages of his campaign, published a story headlined, “What the hell was this Rachel Maddow segment?” The MSNBC host proclaimed that Chad’s pullout from Niger “had an immediate effect in emboldening ISIS attacks,” but the HuffPost easily shot down her theory.
Colby College Department of Government assistant professor Laura Seay told the HuffPost that “any expert” would have said Maddow’s conspiracy theory was “crazy” and the pullout of Chadian troops isn’t necessarily related to the Trump’s travel ban.
“Everybody that I know is appalled by this. I would like to think that Maddow’s researchers are more responsible,” Seay told the HuffPost.
