Rachel Maddow Slammed After Being Announced DNC Debate Moderator

<p>Rachel Maddow Slammed After Being Announced DNC Debate Moderator. Rachel Maddow is under fire after being named a moderator for the first DNC presidential debates. Many view her as the wrong choice due to her being an opinion show host and not a journalist while others, including myself, are more concerned with her Russiagate rhetoric and calls for impeachment.<br /> <br /> Many have pointed out that while other networks have had opinion hosts moderate they still think its a bad idea, citing Don Lemon and Megyn Kelly as previous moderators.<br /> <br /> Assuming the Democrats will want to offer something real to the American public they need to stick to the issues such as healthcare and the economy. There is a concern that with Maddow she will start to push on impeachment and Russia which most Americans do not care about.<br /> <br /> These lines can be used by conservatives, republicans, and Trump supporters to show how Democrats aren't focused on solutions. It shows that they are just mad about losing 2016.<br /> <br /> But more importantly it would speak to moderates and independents that the Democrats only care about old news and not moving the country forward and helping make the country better.</p> <p><a href="http://timcast.com/donate">Support the show</a> (http://timcast.com/donate)</p> <p>Learn more about your ad choices.
