Many remembered her fan-girl enthusiasm when she covered Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

She never got over the fact that she wouldn’t ever become Hillary’s presidential press secretary.

Thankfully, the DNC kept Mitchell at MSNBC.
Mitchell did stay in the anchor chair long enough to see Trump take the White House a second time.
This just may be my favorite Trump accomplishment. Good grief, that woman was awful.

Queen had Mitchell in mind when they recorded that smash hit.
This commenter speaks the truth.

If Andrea Mitchell falls in a studio and no one is around to hear her does she make a sound?
Some posters speculate Mitchell was receiving taxpayer funds through USAID.
Check didn’t clear huh?

Did she stop getting paid, too?
— America First (@TforThirty24) February 5, 2025
How much USAID was she getting?

Whatever she was getting some posters don’t think it was enough to upgrade her ‘youth’ regimen.

The word is she was stopped at a museum exit because a security guard mistook her face for Salvador Dali’s The Persistence of Memory.
Commenters have some closing observations.
The worst Democrat propagandist ever @mitchellreports

LOL. if ever I was sick of a celebrity news anchor it is Andrea Mitchell. She’s been a cat hairball hack for years. Best of luck

President Donald Trump sends his regards. Mitchell is leaving behind her chair at MSNBC but will still appear on NBC News. The 78-year-old will be the network’s chief foreign affairs correspondent as well as its chief Washington correspondent. She is expected to bore new reporters with stories of meeting President Harry S. Truman in the White House.
