Speaking with host José Díaz-Balart on Friday afternoon. a visibly frustrated Alexi McCammond launched into a scorching rant about Donald Trump's ever-shifting positions on abortion, calling his latest stance "crazy."
McCammond who serves as an MSNBC analyst in addition to her duties with Washington Post, told the panel that she sees no reason why anyone should take the former president at his word.
She began by praising NBC's Dasha Burns for cornering the former president about a 6-week ban in his home state of Florida which led the former president to state, “I think the six week is too short. It has to be more time. I told them that I want more weeks. I am going to be voting that we need more than six weeks."

That led the normally placid McCammond to complain, "I mean it's crazy. Kudos to Dasha for getting him on the record saying something that is as crazy as the most extreme positions he has taken on women and reproductive rights."
"I mean talk talk about a political flip-flop-flop!" she continued. "He thinks it is suddenly politically expedient to support women and our reproductive rights. He thinks it's suddenly politically expedient to say he'll protect women if he's re-elected — he'll pay for IVF treatments when his running mate is, you know, dumping on women who don't have their own biological children, when Republicans in the mold of his party have become so extreme that they are coming after birth control, Mifepristone, IVF, splitting hairs on different procedures that women and families need to take in desperate times to save lives to be able to even have a family."

"It is a complete joke, he's a complete joke when he talks about women's rights and reproductive rights and we should absolutely not believe him when he says that he will pay or have the government pay for IVF treatments, because as we know well, not only is his running mate an extreme conservative on these issues, Donald Trump himself has gotten the party to be where it is at on these positions," she explained,
"And we should never take him at his word because he listens to the last and the most influential person he speaks to," she concluded.
