MSNBC's Katie Tur observed that Donald Trump's supporters are often indifferent to his policy inconsistencies, focusing instead on his overall decision-making. The hosts analyze the linguistic fallout of Kellyanne Conway's "alternative facts" phrase. They argue that Conway meant "alternative sets of facts" rather than falsehoods, comparing the divide in American perception to the "blue or gold dress" internet phenomenon.

The concept of "alternate universes" is introduced to describe the diverging realities presented by the Trump administration and the mainstream media. This theme is highlighted by Kellyanne Conway's controversial use of the phrase "alternative facts" during a press briefing. The hosts suggest these controversies, such as the debate over inauguration crowd sizes, may serve as a distraction to keep the media focused on trivialities while policy changes occur elsewhere.
