On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Bloomberg Politics Managing Editor Mark Halperin reviewed Wednesday’s Commander-in-Chief Forum by stating that he would be “terrified” if he was involved in Democratic presidential nominee former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s debate prep, while GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s performance on substance and knowledge “should be a real caution for his people,” and “Neither of them rose to the occasion of what we need in the next president, I don’t think.” Halperin stated, “I think you saw last night the limits of these two candidates.

Willie Geist: Hillary Is ‘Annoyed’ That ‘We’re Still Talking About’ Her Emails
On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” co-host Willie Geist stated that Democratic presidential nominee former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is “annoyed” that “we’re still talking about” her emails. Geist said, “I think Hillary Clinton thinks she has run out the clock. I think she;s talked about this so many times, on this issue, anyway, she’s talked about it so many times. She made the concession, in her eyes, of sitting down in an interview and saying she made a mistake. She may not have been specific enough. She apologized for having the server and said she wouldn’t do it again if she was given the opportunity, but you can see it on her face last night when Matt asked, and asked again, and asked again…she’s annoyed that we’re still talking about it. She does not like this issue, and she just thinks she’s put herself out there and this shouldn’t come up, again. That’s not how it works, unfortunately, for her.” Follow Ian Hanchett on Twitter @IanHanchett
