MSNBC Regular Wants Other Countries To Sanction U.S.: ‘We Are The Bad Guys’ | Eastern NC Now

    Regular MSNBC guest Elie Mystal called on other countries to sanction the United States, claiming that especially after the American military carried out strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities, "we are the bad guys on the world stage."

    Mystal, who also serves as justice correspondent for The Nation, joined ex-MSNBC host Joy Reid on her new eponymous show to discuss the targeted strikes against Iran, and they both appeared to take the side of the world's most prolific and eager state sponsor of terror.

    "Joy, I've argued - and I don't say this lightly - but our country needs to be sanctioned," Mystal declared. "We are the bad guys on the world stage. We are a menace to not only free people everywhere, but we are a menace to peaceful people everywhere at this point."

    "And I'm not even gonna say that we've only been a menace for the past three or four months, right? Like when does the international community decide that enough is enough?" Mystal continued. "I know we're rich. I know we've got a lot of money. I know that people want to buy things from our country because we're rich, or want to sell things to our country because we are rich. But at some point the international community has to stand up to us because we are a bad guy on the world stage, right? And so we should be sanctioned. We should be sanctioned and rebuked."

    Mystal has also claimed in the past that all laws passed prior to 1965 - specifically, before the passage of the Voting Rights Act - should be considered "presumptively unconstitutional."

    "Before the 1965 Voting Rights Act, we were functionally an apartheid country. Not everybody who lived her could vote here," Mystal told the hosts of ABC's "The View." "So why should I give a **** about some law that some old white man passed in the 1920s?"

    Just two months before President Donald Trump won his second term in the White House, Mystal argued on Reid's now defunct MSNBC show that Trump only had a following because he'd rallied around supporters "just as despicable."


    "The reason why it doesn't end his career is because his supporters are just as despicable, all right?" Mystal said. "Like Trump's whole thing, he's a narcissist, right? And so his whole thing is to have a complete lack of compassion and empathy for everybody else. It's all about him. It's all about him, him, him, me, me, me. He's probably the least compassionate president we've had in 200 years since Andrew Jackson. And it works for him because his supporters are just as ungenerous, and have just as little compassion and empathy for others."

Under the cover of Covid, and now in the shadow of the infamous Election Irregularities of that fated 2020 presidential election, with current emerging alleged election fraud in Nevada and Pennsylvania inconveniently slipping into the public discourse, there is proved a colluded ongoing Election Interference in the nomination of the Republican candidate, the likes of which has never occurred in our Constitutional Republic's history, albeit, the question remains: Do you support the plain-sight Election Interference of the Democratic Socialist party, employing its minions in their Propagandistic Media, and their Two Tiered Justice System?

  No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.

  Yes, I do support Election Interference; the alternative, Donald Trump, to this mentally diminished president is far worse.

  "What, me worry" if elections are rigged?

Now that President Trump is picking his cabinet and immediate staff to insulate him from the poor judgement of the Bureaucratic Class, while moving quickly to transition this Constitutional Republic unto a wise and sustainable direction: What is your immediate impression as to how our nation will prosper?

  We are headed toward a Golden Age in America's self-governed society.

  This will all wind up in a clustered mess since Trump is a Fascist, and thought to be the second coming of Adolf Hitler by our best journalists.

  This is a time where critical days lay ahead, where only wise and responsible decisions must be made to sustain US.

  I generally do not pay attention, but expect only the best to occur ... and that is what I always expect.
