The New Abnormal co-hosts Danielle Moodie and Andy Levy are angry about the current political mess that Americans find themselves in—but not at who you might think.
“I don’t even blame Donald Trump because you can’t blame a f—ing criminal for criming,” Moodie said. “But I sure as f— can blame Merrick Garland, a supposed Democrat that was supposed to do a really important job and failed.”
“We’re in this place at a 50/50 f—ing coin toss up of an election because of Merrick Garland,” Moodie added. “Because if he had entered into office doing his job from day one, Donald Trump wouldn’t have had the opportunity to announce that he was running for office again, because he would have been buried under indictments.”

“It’s a sort of death by a thousand cuts that can really add up for voters,” Garber said.
