Between Softballs, Sean Penn Tells MSNBC Trump’s Like the Joker

Between Softballs, Sean Penn Tells MSNBC Trump’s Like the Joker (NewsBusters)

Leftist actor and author Sean Penn was interviewed and honored by Ari Melber on Friday night on MSNBC'sThe Beat. The interview was carefully edited, perhaps to keep Penn's bizarre yammering to a minimum. But Melber also quoted selectively from a passage to a Trumpian president that ends "You are not simply a president of impeachment, you are a man in need of an intervention. We are not simply a people in need of an intervention, we are a nation in need of an assassin….Tweet me, bitch, I dare you." Melber never mentioned the title character of Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff is a hired killer.
