Overview
- Rachel Maddow confirmed her five-night-a-week primetime broadcasts will end at the close of April, fulfilling her commitment to cover Trump’s first 100 days in office.
- She described Trump’s early presidency as defined by efforts to centralize power, including rejecting elections, courts, and resistance, while employing intimidation tactics.
- Maddow highlighted a series of administrative errors and policy reversals, such as mishandled government programs and abrupt changes to key decisions, as hallmarks of the administration's dysfunction.
- She characterized Trump’s first 100 days as a 'slapstick mess' and an 'unfunny farce,' encapsulated by repeated instances of incompetence summed up as 'Oops.'
- MSNBC plans to shift its lineup after Maddow’s nightly broadcasts conclude, with Jen Psaki taking over Tuesday through Friday, while Maddow returns to a weekly schedule.
