Rachel Maddow Returning to MSNBC Monday-Friday Schedule Through Trump’s First 100 Days

MSNBC, hobbled by having no audience since the election, has pulled off a coup.

They’ve convinced Rachel Maddow to return to a five day a week schedule starting January 20th for Trump’s first 100 days in office.

Maddow had been working just on Mondays for the last couple of years. But now that Trump threatens to create mayhem when he takes office, she’s agreed to come back.

Ratings for her and for Lawrence O’Donnell at 10pm should improve greatly. Trump says he’s immediately going to deport millions of immigrants, reverse climate laws, start drilling in protected areas, and do anything cruel he can to the populace and the planet.

Maddow seems to be the only voice on TV or cable capable of taking Trump to task and exposing him. Her appearance will mitigate the outrage her viewers will feel once the inauguration is over and trouble begins.
