Then the brave liberal panelists debated the tweet.

Joy Reid is talking about “acceptable” black people on the right. Only acceptable to Right if they forget history. Really. @msnbc

@alexwagner It would be so refreshing if you could spend 1 minute telling us what is great about our country with no reference to race #tcot

No rational person agrees w/ crazed people w/ crazed signs. But @msnbc needs to keep race convo to satisfy their base. It’s like 2009 again

According to @alexwagner, protest signs against George Bush were nothing compared to signs against Obama. Has she seen the signs? @msnbc

We would have included more tweets describing the segment, but hardly anyone watches the show.
