Customer Reviews
Your vote lives after you!
As a longtime fan of LO, I’ve come to expect an outstanding A Block monologue. There is NONE BETTER than his important 4/11/24 opening monologue: YOUR VOTE LIVES AFTER YOU!
Puerile and gloating
It is sad to see how low Lawrence has fallen on MSNBC. He is no different than the overplayed Maddow now. Once worth watching for erudition and insight, he is now just like a childish, gloating redditor with a hot take. Unsubbed.
Feedback on The Last Word
I almost always watch “The Last Word” the following morning because we record every episode. I watch it with wife. We get most of our news from MSNBC shows.
On Friday’s, the best guest host is Ali Velshi.
