MSNBC anchors Jen Psaki, Joy Reid and Rachel Maddow mocked GOP primary voters in Virginia live on air for considering immigration their top concern.
The presenters at the liberal-leaning news network took jabs at voters while discussing the results of early exit polls on Super Tuesday.
"I live in Virginia. Immigration was the No. 1 issue," Psaki said, drawing laughter from Reid.

"Well, Virginia does have a border with West Virginia, a — very contested area," Maddow sarcastically chimed in, setting off more chortles from her co-hosts.
Despite the MSNBC's crew's snide remarks, voters cited immigration as the most important problem facing the US in a recent poll.
The monthly Gallup survey released in late February found 28% of Americans were most concerned about immigration, up from 20% in January.
It marked the first time in nearly five years that immigration topped the list of concerns among surveyed US adults.
The government was cited as the second biggest problem and the economy as the third.
The group calling immigration the most critical issue included 57% of Republicans, 22% of Democrats, and 10% of independents.
Maddcow and her panel of angry liberal elitists get it wrong again.
One wonders when they will get one right ……
You notice that they have nothing to say about the victims of illegal migrants.
Nope, willful ignorance across the board.
They don't know what people think but they know what they want people to think.
"The government was cited as the second biggest problem and the economy as the third."
The government is causing the problems with immigration and the economy.
Imagine being that out of touch with reality that this is broadcast and expected to be taken seriously.
One has to wonder. Are they stupid because they're liberals or are they liberals because they're stupid?
It appears that Ms Maddow is unaware that the southern border crisis is a serious issue for the entire country - perhaps she should consult mayors in Chicago, New York, Washington DC about whether the immigration crisis is an issue.
The total focus of MSNBC on sucking up to the Democratic Party is as sickening as FOX News blind devotion to Trump and MAGA.
None of these people on cable news are journalists they are talk show hosts and associate campaign managers for their respective candidates.
The GOP should buy Biden for president shirts and put them on illegals and run buses continuously to blue states and cities.

Great idea and then when they lose in November in all of those states and cities - they will claim that all of those immigrants voted for Biden. Maybe Trump has a strategy after all
This border/immigration issue consistently polls as the most important issue with voters these days. Assuming the left is being honest about Maddow being smart. She must be willfully disingenuous on this issue.
Shame Maddcow, shame.
She lost the little credibility she had years ago.
Psaki and Maddow are the modern day equivalent of the French nobles of the ancien regime. Incredibly wealthy and insulated from the problems facing the vast majority of their country, they live in their bubble, avoid inconveniences and mock the concerns of the common people they barely share the same country with. It is the "let them eat cake" of the 2024 from the out of touch aristocrat having no clue what the "little people" worry about.
This describes much of our media and government.
Completely out of touch with the common people.
Next they will call us "deplorables" or something like that
MSNBCs resident racist Joy Reid pretty much did just that last night. And the other people on the panel were shaking their heads in agreement.
