He was an announced candidate,\u201d said Maddow who added that the Trump team initiated the call as an off the record conversation as part of the groundwork to a planned larger interview. \u201cI had this conversation with him .. I\u2019d sort of said he had good chances against his Republican primary opponents and we kind of dished dirt on all the things he thought was wrong with all his Republican primary opponents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"qualified qualified-1\">The interview, however, never happened. Trump suggested that Maddow could just use the phone call they had, even though it was not recorded.<\/p>\n<p>Meyers and Maddow spent much of the rest of their interview trying to psychoanalyze Trump\u2019s relationship with cable news.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s never been a president who is more addicted to news about himself and who\u2019s more response to the news that he supposedly thinks is so worthless,\u201d said Maddow \u201cSo it\u2019s a weird tension. It\u2019s a dangerous time for the first amendment and the free press in this country. At the same time, we\u2019re oddly influential with the guy who wants to kill us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meyers compared the whole thing to being a serial killer in love with the person trying to arrest him.<\/p>\n<p>      <!-- END CONTENT --><\/p>\n<p style=\"color:#333; font-size:11px;\">This article was posted: Wednesday, May 3, 2017  at  8:26 am<\/p>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\"\/>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\"\/><!-- share and follow --><br \/>\n      <!-- end of share and follow --><\/p>\n<div class=\"print_sub\">\n<h3 class=\"sub_titles\">&#13;<br \/>\n        \t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prisonplanet.com\/maddow-trump-wants-to-kill-us.html\/print\/\" title=\"Print\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"WP-PrintIcon\" src=\"https:\/\/hw.prisonplanet.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-print\/images\/printer_famfamfam.gif\" alt=\"Print\" title=\"Print\" style=\"border: 0px;\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nPrint this page.<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\"\/>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\"\/>\n<p>        <!--\n      \n\n<div class=\"nextpage\">\n              <\/div>\n\n \n --><\/p>\n<p><!--\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Gm2pZEeYN0E?list=UUvsye7V9psc-APX6wV1twLg\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.prisonplanet.com\/maddow-trump-wants-to-kill-us.html\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MediaiteMay 3, 2017 Rachel Maddow\u00a0has taken with\u00a0increasing glee\u00a0to her role as part of the media resistance against President\u00a0Donald Trump.
