Squawk Box

After many years as an avid watcher of Squawk Box and appreciating the news and analysis, have become very disenchanted with Joe Kernan's commentary. Plus he's constantly interrupting CNBC's guests with his own spin and how guest's comments are wrong. Of course, it's good to have different perspectives on a business news channel, but Joe has obviously become a spokesman for Trump's thoughtless, incoherent and offensive spiels, frankly mostly lies!

Becky , Andrew, Steve and the other show's regulars are doing their best to keep the discussions on topic and accurate. And I'm now regularly switching to CNN & MSNBC Morning Joe.

Joe Kernen's relentless propaganda in support of far right political candidates and long discredited economic policies has become intolerable. There is no balance to his presentations. His softball questions to and coaching of the numerous supply side apologists he features on Squawk Box is so pronounced that it has turned the program into a political screed. I tune in... and have been doing so for almost 30... years for financial information. If I wanted to watch a propaganda channel I'd tune in to Brian Kilmeade on FOX.

In the rare instances where Andrew Ross Sorkin interviews a person with an opinion he opposes, Kernen constantly chimes in to rudely interrupt the flow of the interview and distort the message. I have watched him for years and enjoyed his reporting for the most part. Lately, however, he's devolved into a cheerleader for right wing views. It's painful to watch.

I used to enjoy The Squawk Box, but not so much anymore. Joe Kernen has become TOO political, condescending towards guest that do NOT agree with his ideals, and his opinions are now based on politics and not stock analysis. He needs to GO or move to FOX to talk about his politics. Compared to Andrew Ross Sorkin, Sorkin a much better anchor for early morning or anytime. His ability to connect with guest and fellow anchors is outstanding. I enjoy watching him with Cramer and Faber, those three have chemistry and makes it an informative morning show that I enjoy with my morning coffee. Sorkin needs to be on the morning shows more and more and REMOVE KERNEN.

Why can't anybody entertain a use tax 10% spending tax for the federal government if you use it you pay that way all the drug dealers and all the smugglers and all the illegal workers can pay their fair share and guess what we don't have to pay thousands of dollars to accountants and tax workers to figure out our complicated tax system that is getting worse to figure out every year I'm in South Florida we have thousands of boats not registered to the USA I think that's money in the bank any boat that stays in the USA more than 3 months got to be registered and pay its own tax billions of dollars are lost Cruise ships pay your tax Side note for Joe allow guests to speak at least I'm not calling for your removal like others.

More and more the program annoys me. If I want political news I would change the channel. I want business news and this doesn't seem to be possible with Joe Kernan on the show. Joe seems to be more interested in giving his views rather than asking guests their views. I find I watch the show less and less due to the political content. Joe agenda seems to be one of advancing the views of the Republican Party. CNBC do us a favor and get him off.

I've comments from two and three years ago and many of these views were prevalent then. Does CNBC listen to their viewers? I would like to see more of Andrew and Becky.
