Brian, dude, do you even math?
Do they think there are 500 people in America? Even this Twitchy editor who has not had enough coffee to truly be all that clever yet can see this doesn’t exactly add up.
I'm speechless.
I thought they were going to mock the stupidity of the tweet, but then she says it's true and I can't believe it's real.

Maybe?
Work with us, people.
Because MSNBC hires idiots?

OMG!!! And then the NYT editorial board member says it is TRUE!
Seriously, did a producer allow that tweet to go on-air just because they hate Brian?

Whoa. Could be?

You can laugh at them but they're right; Mike Bloomberg should give everyone a million dollars

Umm.
HOLLY PLEASE DIVIDE 500,000,000 by 327,000,000 AND TELL ME WHAT THE ANSWER IS!
How did not ONE person in the booth, on set, in the newsroom, catch this?

The MSNBC math department closes at 5pm.
