On Thursday morning, MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle dedicated an entire segment of her 9:00 a.m. ET hour show to blaming Republicans for the suffering of millions of Texans who have been afflicted by recent freezing temperatures and snow storms.
During her opening, Ruhle — who is known for being a Democratic sympathizer — decried Republican elected officials for “spending their time getting political” and not doing more to help residents of Texas.
