Noted and Quoted: MSNBC hosts on covering Trump's false claims, America's need for border security and Sen. Susan Collins

I just find it curious that all the Republicans that were yesterday attacking [Rep. Ilhan Omar] for her horrific, anti-Semitic remarks which she apologized for…I don’t think I remember Kevin McCarthy calling out Donald Trump when he called for a Muslim registry in the United States of America in 2015 and 2016. I don’t think I heard from any of those self-righteous Republicans or any of those so-called conservative commentators on the far right when Donald Trump talked about banning 1.5 billion people from entering the U.S. because of the god that they worshipped.

The president flatly proclaims alternate universe stuff all the time, and because of that you do have the option to ignore it — but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s president. And when he says stuff that isn’t true, repeatedly, you have to reckon with that strategically as to whether or not it should be corrected. But it can be hard to get your bearings as to what we must insist is true.

Everyone, I think, is lifted up by these kids because their courage makes you examine everything in your life.

As bad as Donald Trump can be, what is he doing getting his direction on matters of war and peace from someone so demonstrably dangerous?
