Trump lashes out at Joe Scarborough

Politico

Donald Trump lashed out at Joe Scarborough on Wednesday after the MSNBC host urged Republicans to disavow their nominee
“Morning Joe's weakness is its low ratings. I don't watch anymore but I heard he went wild against Rudy Giuliani and #2A - sad & irrelevant!” Trump tweeted.

On Wednesday morning, Scarborough, a former Republican congressman, criticized the Republican Party for its continued support of Trump on his flagship show, “Morning Joe.”

“Let me say this to my Republican Party,” he said. “You are letting Donald Trump destroy the party. And you've done it from the beginning. We've said from the very beginning when he started blowing himself up. When Paul Ryan endorsed him, that it's only going to get worse. And it just keeps getting worse, doesn't it?”


IOW - rather than diffuse his latest crisis, or (heaven forbid) focus on a real issue, he's decided to have another personal feud, which will likely last through the end of the week.

scandalous comment...like Trump comparing Melania's model photos to unflattering pics of Mika. He's such a child.

They were fawning all over him and then there was that leaked tape of a hot mike when they were off the air where Trump told Mika to not ask him any hard questions during the next segment.
