MSNBC's Kasie Hunt Shocked Over Trump's Post-Helsinki Poll Bump

In the wake of the Helsinki summit when liberals and their mainstream media allies were hurling everything including the kitchen sink in the form of the charge of treason at President Trump, it turns out that all their attacks only resulted in a bump in Trump's poll ratings. This caused MSNBC's Kasie Hunt to express shock at that result on her Kasie DC show on Sunday to the extent that she claimed that we are now "living in a different space-time continuum" where "even gravity works differently."

Among Republicans, that number is 88 percent, the highest ever his entire presidency. -- More....
