Katie Couric: My Goal Wasn't To Make Sarah Palin Struggle | Morning Joe | MSNBC 

He loves to read books on bone spurs.

At least he stays awake and doesn't need a nap every day!

Well, he had to get to all 57 states and talk about truth over facts (Biden).

@@thelittles5182 he naps all the time

Wow I didn’t know you lived full time with t-rump and knew his sleeping habits? Totally uneducated person! 😂

@Andrea Mendenhall Palin was completely out of her depth.

I think its actually when they are out of their depth, and try to cover it up with psuedo answers. If they were more confident, they would just acknowledge they aren't well enough informed and promise an answer later.

@Andrea Mendenhall true Andrea...but to be aiming for Vice President and possibly becoming President of one of the most powerful countries in the world, you have to be prepared to be interviewed. It’s not that anyone is trying to put her down. As others have stated, she was simply out of her depth.

The difference between how they treated Sarah Palin and Joe Biden or Kamala Harris is eye opening.

We listen to Babble from Biden and Harris on a daily basis

Really? Hillary wasn't on the ticket in 2008.

@@anonnon4737 She was running against Obama at the time McCain picked his VP. Am I wrong? So he didn't know if she'd win. This is why his people told him to pick a female VP. Sadly, he picked someone he hardly knew.

@@OntarioAndrews415 Obama won enough primaries and secured enough superdelegates by June 3rd, to win the nomination, four days later Hillary conceded that she lost. On August 23, Obama announced Joe Biden as his running mate. John McCain announced that Sarah Palin would be his running mate on August 29th. So Katie Couric's comment that McCain figured any woman would do to combat Hillary is disingenuous as Hillary was never on the ticket, and Obama had already announced Biden as his VP. Also anyone in the know knew Obama would never picked Clinton, as there was so much bad blood between them. Clinton's team started the birther business with Obama. You'll find fake fact checking stating this is false, but I will give you the names. Clinton staffer Sidney Blumenthal went to the offices of a media outlet called McClatchy in DC and met with McClatchy's editor James Asher and encouraged McClatchy to pursue stories on Obama's connection to Kenya. Other McClatchy staff such as Shashank Bengali were aware of what the Clinton campaign was asking them to do. McCain picked Palin because he wasn't polling well with young people and women, and he hoped Palin would help him with both. Similarly Obama was polling poorly in the southern states, especially with whites and he hoped that Biden would help him.

@@anonnon4737 Okay, but Clinton did a good job and McCain recognized that so he figured (I think mostly his advisors) that going with a woman VP was the way to go, which is fine in itself. However, he picked a nut case who he said he only met a hand full of times.

@@OntarioAndrews415 Clinton did a good job? As Senator she convinced Democrats to go to war in Iraq, which was the wrong call and an utter disaster. As First Lady, Bill put her in charge of creating and drumming up support for a universal healthcare plan and even Democrats said she rubbed people the wrong way and was difficult to work with and as you know Congress rejected the plan. Even the American public preferred Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton. McCain picked Sarah Palin because he needed youth on the ticket and someone who could pick up the youth vote and the women vote. Palin was out of her depth, inexperienced, and not smart enough for the role, but she wasn't a nutcase. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a nutcase. Lauren Boebert is a nutcase.

I mean Republicans were attacking the media for decades so the defense of Palin wasn't something new.

Let me tell you why this is all BS what she’s saying. They don’t go after the current president Joe Biden, or Kamala Harris the current vice president with anywhere near the ferociousness in their questioning. We know that Biden and Harris are both lunatics but this type of media they ignore completely because that’s who they want to be an office. It works better for them.

Who did what in court I like to see your picture

IT Was ALL KATIE COURIC FAULT

I think it started with Bush

Lololol!!

What a pity that she wasn't actually born and living in Russia

And now we have Biden

FU

SHE RAN ALASKA

​@@saramcdonalds427for two years and wimped out. It was good for Alaska she ststepped down as governor.

She's in Russia trying to see her own home from there.

FU

Palin had an insane amount of Charisma. She hit it out of the park when she was introduced at the RNC.

**stategist. Most manager

Lol 70? You're an optimist!

alvin081988 I can’t distinguish them. Sarah Palin is a parody of herself.

Serennekin literally I’m stunned no one chuckled or laughed that was flawless and completely hilarious 😂

FU

Kamala was given a free pass

Get ready to find out ...

Dems get a free pass on everything. Hope Durim sends these corrupt losers to jail.

No. No one was. Everyone has weaknesses and Katie, et all wanted her to make her out like bumpkin. Sarah has strengths, but never given a chance to explore those. Katie is a jerk.

Kamala did get a free pass until Tulsi had something to say about it.

She sucks.

She sucks and I"m sure her podcast will flop.

FU

Scott No, it’s worse: He has no intellectual curiosity.

He is lazy!

FU

@@janicesaccomanno5971 Fake University........thanks for reminding us of the reality Appresident

Get it over dude.

Why is that because you can't hang a really man I have a lot over stuff on you

Katie did interview Joe when he ran for VP. You can find it on youtube.

Hope the stupid liberals are happy with Sleepy Stupud Joe.

The Republican game plan for 2024 is to have a Trump and Palin duo running for President and vice-president

What? Crazy? Palin was stupid and ignorant. Kamala Harris is knowledgeable, competent, well-educated and a proven force. Palin showed how being popular is meaningless.

Real random🤣🤣🤣🤣

What do Obama or Biden read

Right on!!!

You can't honestly believe that any amount of prepping would have a difference. She is exactly as moronic as she appears, nothing could ever change that.

They didn't realize she was incapable of abstract reasoning

FU

@@janicesaccomanno5971 no thank you!!

@@janicesaccomanno5971 Fake University....the Trump gold standard. Thanks for the reminder.

She was publicly undressed and humiliated

Gilligan never got off the island...sad!

That’s why Katie Couric would never run for president or any office.

She sucks.

Well witch one over them got some over here

Yes I can why don't you send me a picture over you must be like the rest over them you can't hang with a really man

You're deranged. Sarah had an extremely high approval rating when Governor of Alaska. She is intelligent and fights the good ole boy system of corruption. She was extremely popular with mainstream America with the gift if connectivity.

Bill Kristol is an epic moron. He is intelligent but astonishingly ignorant. Kind of like the bulk of the GOP...

FU

They also thought Drumpf was presidential material! Dumb as rocks!

And now you think Biden is presidential material. LOL! I guess you don't read much either!

FU

Asking a person what they read is bad? Stop it

Bobby Porter yes that was sarcasm

+Tee Dee sorry thought u were republican, they dont know sarcasm 😂😂

Bobby Porter No problem. Not a Republican. Thank you for your response

FU. Happy with Stupid Sleep Joe?

FU

Graham Strouse Or listening to Meghan Traynor

FU

cosgrove notts And it worked!

Relax… no one is impressed with you. The general consensus is that it was a great interview

She reads all of them.

No...she somehow spawned an evil look alike named Lauren Boebart ..

FU

They would have done better to get Sarah to read more or pick a candidate that was more involved at that level. She was not on their level but Katie could have expounded on the Bush Doctrine and then let the woman give her thoughts. McCain didn’t want a strong VP to be seen as a threat.

Considering he is dyslexic - I suspect he has never read a book in his life.
