    Maybe Joe stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night…???

    So why doesn’t Mika and/or Joe ask The Boor about it when they have him on the air? Instead they let the campaign director screen and approve the questions: remember “Yeah, no tough questions, Mika”? Or would that put them in his disfavor and they feel that could possibly hurt the show’s ratings? And we all know, ratings are MUCH more important than getting the truth out there. I mean, Morning Joe is Entertainment, not News, right?

      Yes. To coin a GOP phrase, they built that.

      “cause it would interfere with those discounts so no Old Joe isn’t going to ask.

    Hey, even Herman Cain’s ridiculous 9-9-9 tax plan was a semblance of a policy discussion. This year’s RepubliKKKan debates would be embarrassing to kindergarteners.

    Do us all a favor and shut up, Scarborough. You are partly responsible for transforming the GOP/TP into the Stupid Party because you’ve used your program to legitimize nearly every crackpot conspiracy theory, nugget of propaganda, and lie anyone in your party has ever peddled. Stop your whining. You helped to build this by being a huge coward and by your unwillingness to call out all of the ugly, divisive behavior any GOP/TP pol, pundit, or radio entertainer has ever displayed. You’re a party man, alright? This means that you willingly chose to avoid facing the truth about its’ members. Just as you made the decision to place party over country, you now need to accept the putrid fruits of your labor.

    As long as a racist, misogynistic blowhard has a platform based upon hate, lies and racism a good percentage of the GOP will follow. Scarborough is an accessory to the media fiasco that gives Trump an overwhelming majority of political airtime.

    Joe still wants that store discount you know since he’s got a load of kids to buy gifts for.
