Scarborough Suggests that Trump Has Crossed the Rubicon into ‘Fascism’
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/10/2016 5:51:56 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

The opening segment of today’s Morning Joe was one long fusillade against Donald Trump in light of his remark yesterday that there is nothing people could do to stop a President Hillary from abolishing the Second Amendment, “although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is. I don’t know.”

The single harshest criticism came from Joe Scarborough, who suggested that Trump had “crossed the Rubicon” into fascism. Scarborough said that in the past he had rejected use of the words “fascist” or “fascism” in reference to Trump because he had never made “a call to violence.” Scarborough asserted that Trump’s comments yesterday were a suggestion that “Second Amendment people” kill Hillary Clinton or judges. Concluded Scarborough: “he crossed a lot of Rubicons yesterday.”

Scarborough does not know jack sh!t. Every freedom loving patriot “should” heed Trumps statement... because if clinton gets in and appoints the rest of the supreme court with liberals and they rule that the 2nd A, means only gov gets weapons, then it should be a clarion call to replace the government, by any and every means available

My intelligence is insulted anytime I hear that this guy, Scarborough, is conservative. He is far left and I would never watch that show. I am sure he gets a lot of money for turning truth inside out and upside down. Hope he enjoys it when the nation is no longer free.

Joe has crossed the Seven Seas Lagoon in to Fantasy Land and the establishment and MSM are jockeying for position at the ferry gate.

...”Left-wingers are the fascist.”...

Yes they are. All you have to do to know who they are is to look at what they accuse conservatives of. Anyone taking a look at the history of Stalin and Hitler will see very similar patterns between those governments and our government today.

A fascinating article about how Joe went over to the otherside.

It also documents that he is very likely an alcoholic.

Well, if Trump is a fascist then Hillary is a communist.

And what would Scarborough’s comments be regarding Patrice Lumumba, Ngo Dinh Diem, and most recently Quaddafi (”We came, we saw, he died” - chuckle, chuckle)?

Same here. I’ve started to watch Fox Business News with Maria Bartiromo in the morning. She has a good show

Everyone who pays attention knows the media are the true fascists & socialists, and something they always do is accuse their enemies of the very things they themselves are guilty of committing.

Scarborough obviously didn’t study history.

These Rinos are always silent about the scandals and crimes from the left.

Joe crossed the Rubicon to reach dementia at a rather young age. Who watches this idiot?

Amazing to hear how many people must have barely passed English courses in high school. They are so proud to demonstrate their ignorance of the English language and its structures.

Hey Joe, you can’t institute Fascism in a country that has a viable second amendment. The Citizenry must first be disarmed.

It’s Hillary that wants to take away the Second Amendment, hence it is Hillary that is the Fascist.

“Fascism” has been set up as some sort of some kind of horror show about capitalism gone wrong, and in fact, it is nothing of the sort. There is little connection between the “crony capitalism” that is the darling of the Current Regime, and actually many who consider themselves to be “liberal” or “progressive”, and true “laissez-faire”, or free-market, capitalism.

What The Donald calls for, is exhibiting the rugged individualism celebrated in much of American song and story, together with the Second Amendment and the right to own and enjoy one’s property. Without the Second Amendment, the rights enumerated in the First Amendment are meaningless and can be rescinded on a moment’s notice.
