Forever earnest Brian Stelter tweeted out his late-night appearance on CNN with Abby Phillip.
“MSNBC's Maddow is right to be thinking aloud about the possible repercussions of a second Trump term,” he typed. “Other media types and political veterans are doing the same thing. What might "retribution" look like? What are the pressure points that Trump could target?”
In a softball email interview with Maddow, CNN’s Oliver Darcy warned about the MAGA crowd: “Some of his extremist allies even talking about jailing their fellow Americans. You're one of his most notable critics on television. Are you worried that you could be a target?” It’s like he doesn’t know Peter Navarro is in jail, and Steve Bannon is scheduled for jail, over refusing to testify to the Pelosi-Picked Panel on January 6.
Maddow implied something about camps for Trump’s campaign promise of mass deportations: "For that matter, what convinces you that these massive camps he’s planning are only for migrants? I’m worried about me — but only as much as I’m worried about all of us."
