Reporters have on-screen tantrum over Trump’s | TV Shows

The day started off with a heated discussion on the Morning Joe.

MSNBC morning anchors Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski invited marketing expert Donny Deutsch to discuss Trump’s choice to pardon the January 6 rioters.

The conversation started off with Way Too Early host Ali Vitali pointing out “the fact that that can be done with a stroke of pen.”

Scarborough pointed out that Republicans have “a one vote majority in the house” and “a three vote majority in the Senate,” making it clear it was a close election.

Deutsch then chimed in, saying: “We can say that to ourselves that he has co-opted America’s heartbeat.”

Deutsch urged Democrats to understand Trump was able to “get away with things as ridiculous as that” because he was “feeding people what they want to hear and what they need.”

Scarborough reminded the two Trump “told them what he was going to do.”

He said: “He’s providing the bread and the circuses, as they said in Roman days, that entertains them.”

He followed by saying Trump’s actions are “breaking one norm after another.”

Accompanied by an eye roll, Brzezinski said to Deutsch and the viewers that it can’t be ignored.

The guest clarified: “Nobody’s saying ignore it, I’m saying the opposite, actually.”
