Joy-Ann Reid, who worked for the Obama campaign in 2008 and who now hosts MSNBC’s weekend AM Joy, appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press on August 7 where she described Hillary’s e-mail scandal as too complicated for the public to understand:
“I think the blessing and the curse for Hillary Clinton is that the e-mail story is complicated. So, the curse for her is that trying to explain it, her answers are so detailed and complicated, that when you’re explaining you’re losing...
“But, it’s also so complicated that when you talk to voters they don’t really get it. What they do understand is that they have G-Mail, so it doesn’t sound like something criminal. So that when Donald Trump goes over the top and tries to say that it’s something criminal, he kind of loses the audience too. It’s a blessing and a curse.”
