While some in the media have swallowed their pride and given President Trump credit for securing a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that looks like it will lead to the end of the war, MSNBC’s co-host of The Weeknight, Symone Sanders-Townsend is still stuck in her ways. On Thursday’s show, Sanders-Townsend instead tried to credit the British and French governments, despite them having no role in…
