Rachel Maddow must ‘practice humility’ over Biden’s prediction

The Rachel Maddow had a piece of “humility cake” on Tuesday after watching footage of her rejection of predictions President Joe Biden would be replaced by “fantasy” at the top of the Democratic Party’s candidate list.

“I think the backup plan is [to] run a better campaign. There is no reason, I think, that there could be this fantasy that Biden is not the president, that Biden is not the candidate. He is and will be, and I think that is a fixed variable,” Maddow said during a June 18 appearance at The view.

Just one month later, Biden called off his re-election campaign.

“There has been a small change since Rachel was last here,” Whoopi Goldberg said Tuesday after Maddow's June clip aired.

“A little humility, anyone?” said the MSNBC anchor as she sat down at the table with the laughing presenters.

“I hate starting to dunk,” Alyssa Farah Griffin he said, praising Maddow for “so rarely being wrong with his political predictions.”

“I feel like the universe is giving us things like this back just to [humble]to keep our egos in check a little bit. It's a good reminder not to believe anything anyone says,” Maddow said of her completely off-the-wall prediction.

Maddow described Biden's debate with the former president Donald Trump the “most following” in American history, and said that just minutes into the event it was clear that his candidacy was over.

“I was as surprised as anyone when President Biden dropped out, but it shows the power of debate. We have never had a debate in American history as consequential as this last one. In five minutes of that debate, his presidency became a one-term presidency,” she said.

During her performance in June on The viewMaddow argued that Biden needs to run a “better campaign” but said he had made the United States “the envy of the world.”

You and Joy Behar also worried during the previous appearance that Trump could target her and somehow take The view from the air.

“I'm with you. I think he is so vengeful that he [his critics] however he has to do it, whether it's through the IRS, or maybe through sponsors to get us off the air, or maybe through you. How seriously should we take this?” Behar said at the time.

“I don’t think anyone is safe,” Maddow said.
