[See NewsBusters for more.] While waiting for the results in the Iowa caucus on Monday night, MSNBC turned into a fight between liberals as the network’s journalists and guests fought over “oligarch” Michael Bloomberg vs. Bernie Sanders. But it was former Republican Nicolle Wallace who provide the awkward moment of the early evening. She repeatedly referred to Donald Trump as the “enemy” and then made a political metaphor about how “a Republican would take Mike [Bloomberg's] money and say, ‘Help me kill Trump.’” An uncomfortable Brian Williams joked, “Uh, look at the time.” This came after Wallace, worried about all the Democratic fighting, tried to reframe the battle, pointing out who the real “enemy” is.
