Swing state union members hit MSNBC host Alex Wagner with a brutal reality check when they made it clear to her that they don’t care about what happened on January 6th, 2021.
During a piece that aired on Monday on “Alex Wagner Tonight: View From The Battlegrounds, Live from Michigan,” Wagner spoke to people labeled as “undecided battleground voters” on a host of issues ahead of the 2024 Election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
One union member she spoke to said he wasn’t particularly “familiar” with “February 6th.”
Wagner then corrected him, “January 6th,” before the man explained that he “remembered that day,” but it wouldn’t be a deciding factor in the 2024 election.
“I know he [Trump] was the standing president,” the person said. “I’m not familiar with the charges that are being brought against him. I’m not following that charge or, you know, there’s multiple court cases going on. I’m just not familiar with it.”
When pressed further by Wagner on whether it would be a factor in who he’s going to vote for, the union member said, “No.”
The MSNBC host then spoke to another person and asked, “When I say January 6th, what do you think?”
The second person replied, “I just remember seeing it on the news … all the riots and stuff. I didn’t know what it was about or what happened.”
She then pressed him to see how it “made him feel” when he saw it, and he said, “I don’t know I feel really any way about it. I mean, people showed their emotion. I guess, probably in the wrong way, but it happened.”
In a second clip, she spoke to a union member who said immigration was important to him, noting the “thousands and thousands of illegal immigrants coming across the border every day and the vice president has done minimal work to fix that.”
He also said “based on” the first four years of Trump, that the former president would be better with handling the border crisis. The member said he was leaning toward Trump.
She then spoke to another person who told her what matters to them in the election is the “influx” of illegals at the border, as well as the “economy.” When pressed further which way he was going to vote, he said he wasn’t sure yet.
