Cleanup on aisle Luntz

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski hammered pollster Frank Luntz for praising the State of the Union address by repeating President Donald Trump’s falsehoods.

The Republican political consultant was widely mocked on Twitter for his obsequious praise for the president’s speech, and he appeared Wednesday on “Morning Joe” to talk about it.


Tonight, I owe Donald Trump an apology. Tonight, I was moved and inspired. Tonight, I have hope and faith in America again.

It may go away tomorrow…
But tonight, America is great again. #SOTU

That’s when Brzezinski dropped the hammer.

“I think because he’s literally screwed everybody in that room over a few times too many,” she said. “He’s been vulgar and racist and accused one of the senators in that room of giving sexual favors for money. He’s insulted the wife of a Republican senator in that room in the worst way possible.”

Made my stomach churn right after breakfast. He was desperately trying to convince the panel they were being unfair. Fail.

. . . is that, in his interviews with Cultist Trumpkins, LUNTZ is the "voice of reason".
