But no More "Morning Joe" for me as he tried yesterday to lay the blame on the VP's loss on Black men who voted blue at the same rate as in 2020 when we know it was white, working class voters as always who voted red, and the surprising red shift by Latino men.

I'm done with them and my blood pressure is better off.
