MSNBC’s Joy Reid launched her new show, The Reid Out, with special guests, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton and Joe Biden.
“We’ve got Hillary Clinton, obviously, who was the nominee in 2016, so she knows what it means to face Donald Trump in an election better than anyone else,” Reid said.
Many thanks to my @MSNBC family for all the amazing support for #TheReidOut – thank you all and your fabulous teams, for having me on, tweeting and texting and emailing, our PR folks and our “suits.” You’re all amazing. You make work not work at all. Feeling very lucky tonight!??

“And, of course, Joe Biden, who has that task now and who, if he becomes president, will have the monumental task of trying to walk this country back from what I think a lot of people would agree has been a disaster, including on coronavirus,” she added.
Reid steps in to the 7 p.m. time slot after Chris Matthews left the network amid allegations of sexual harassment. In doing so, she becomes the network’s only Black host in prime time.
