Summary

On tonight's episode of The Joy Reid Show, Jasmine Crockett is running for the U.S. Senate seat in Texas, and Donald Trump is losing his mind. We sit down tonight to talk with Representative Crockett about the attacks on her character, her goals for if she is elected, and why a Democrat winning the Texas seat is actually not as far fetched as people think. We also discuss the Paramount/Skydance take over of CBS and how an anchor on the network seems to have benefited from calling a black journalist a terrorist. Furthermore, we consider what is at stake if Paramount then takes over CNN. Speaking of allegedly unwinnable races, Charles Booker comes on with us tonight to talk bout his bid for Glitchy Mitchy's seat in Kentucky. Lastly, our moment of joy brings us a little holiday cheer from a person we dearly miss. All this and more, tonight on TJRS.
