Discussion: Donald Trump Turns Against Joe Scarborough: 'Not Much Power Or Insight!'

Why is Scarborough endorsing anyone at all and why is MSNBC letting him do it?

Wasn’t that their problem with Olbermann?

It is just normal progression as he doesn’t need Joe anymore. His trousers will be much more comfy without Joe’s head in the seat (smooch, smooch).

NOBODY is ‘allowed’ to go against the Donald…he’s got his shills out there today dismantling the three branches of government because they don’t think he’s ‘God’ and Donald and his ‘tweets’ are attacking the Fourth Estate. Good lord the GOPpers are fools.

Dare I ask just where Donald’s pumpkin might be? (Do I wanna know?)

Joe has always been the human resources manager. More horsepower so he can make those personnel decisions for MSNBC.

Why, because Trump criticized him today? C’mon, this is Trump. He could change his mind three times before Monday.

This is TRULY Rich…talk about a party tearing itself apart.

I am just totally mystified at Trump though…
Does nobody tell him that continuing to alienate African Americans, women, Hispanics when he already has dismal ratings with them, and back stabbing supposed friends in the media…is going to make his uphill climb ever more difficult?

He defended his taco bowl tweet against critics today by saying it got 79,000 likes. Does he truly believe that Twitter likes are a good indicator of his national support?

Does he truly believe that the female vote he got in recent primaries translates to the national electorate?

Manafort is vile, but he didn’t get where he is by being dumb. It appears however, that nobody is telling the emperor he is sans coulotte…

You buried the lead (or, as they used to say in journalism, the “lede”). Trump has apparently decided on his tweetable nickname for Hillary.

This is going to get so much worse before it gets better …

I imagine schadenfreude tastes like a cup of really high quality, dark cocoa with just enough sweetness to cut the slight bitterness and a heavy dash of sea salt. It tastes divine hot, of course, but it’s best served cold.

When Bill Maher described a Trump Presidency he said something like ‘this guy is not going to get anything done. He’s going to spend his whole presidency ‘getting even’ with people he thinks have wronged him.’

Here’s the first sign of it…and he’s not even in the Oval Office.

And no one will, not if they want to keep their jobs. They’re going to tell that dead animal coiffed jackass whatever the hell it is he wants to hear. Why not? As long as they keep getting paid (getting paid), why do they care how badly he loses or how ridiculous he looks? Nobody’s even going to hold his landslide defeat against his campaign staff. They can write books, hit the speaking circuit, do the full Ginsburg telling everyone how they tried so hard (ugh) to get him to listen, but he refused (double ugh!) to take anyone’s advice. They can say everyone reached a point where they realized Trump wasn’t at all prepared to do the job, and they just tried to manage GOP expectations and save down ballot candidates and bippity boppity boo. No one will care that it’s all bullshit because everyone will get richer and… on to the next campaign.

Trump’s behaviour can be looked at in many ways. One way is to realize that Trump is acting exactly how his voters would be behaving if they could do what he does.

A harbinger of future behaviour on his part.

Goody Pruett’s in Chicago’s Goblin Market offer schadenfreude pies. Better yet, there are several recipes for those kinds of pies and cakes you can make yourself :wink: search is you’re friend.

Apparently, you forgot one thing: IOKIYAR. And Phil Griffin thinks the 29 people who watch Morning Joke every AM are equivalent to the entire audience of “Seinfeld” when it was the highest-rated show on TV.
