#MSNBC is giving John Kasich a platform to say that Democrats are telling him that Joe Biden may not be the Democratic nominee on live TV, using something akin to "I'm not saying it is true, but many people are saying..." If North American democracies manage to survive the upcoming election cycles, we *must* remove the ability for private and corporate interests to overtly or covertly influence & manipulate our information spaces. #journalism #politics #democracy

The quoted toot was in response to one of Andrea Mitchell's many frequent MSNBC daytime interviews of John Kasich, where he regularly advises Democrats to do things that will shockingly & coincidentally benefit the Republican donor network.
