Joe Scarborough has accused Trump of being responsible for the death of a 75-year-old man in Utah whom the FBI shot to death after he had made explicit assassination threats and reportedly pointed a gun at agents.
Self-styled simple country lawyer Scarborough broke out the "but for" rule: that but for Trump's allegations of a deep state, stolen elections, etc., that man wouldn't be dead.
Concluded Scarborough:
"This man paid for it with his life! He bought into the lies. He bought into the conspiracy theory. And now, because of Donald Trump, you know, you could make the argument, he's dead! You can make the argument that he is dead because of Donald Trump."
So what's next, Joe? If under your "but for" rule, Trump is responsible for the man's death, should Jack Smith issue a new superseding indictment, charging Trump with homicide?

So is Biden to blame for the Afghanistan withdrawal disaster? Do I hear crickets?
Say Joe but for you that intern would still be alive
Jack Posobic this morning said this guy was posting stuff like this when Obama was in office, so how can they pin this on Trump?

In September 1917, near the end of World War I, President Woodrow Wilson established a working fellowship of about 150 scholars called “The Inquiry”, tasked with briefing him about options for the postwar world when Germany was defeated. This academic group, directed by Wilson’s closest adviser and long-time friend “Colonel” Edward M. House, and with Walter Lippmann as Head of Research, met to assemble the strategy for the postwar world.
The members were proponents of Wilson’s internationalism, but they were particularly concerned about “the effect that the war and the treaty of peace might have on postwar business”. The scholars from the inquiry saw an opportunity to create an organization that brought diplomats, high-level government officials, and academics together with lawyers, bankers, and industrialists to engineer government policy. On July 29, 1921, they filed a certification of incorporation, officially forming the Council on Foreign Relations.
A critical study found that of 502 government officials surveyed from 1945 to 1972, more than half were members of the Council. During the Eisenhower administration 40% of the top U.S. foreign policy officials were CFR members (Eisenhower himself had been a council member); under Truman, 42% of the top posts were filled by council members. During the Kennedy administration, this number rose to 51%, and peaked at 57% under the Johnson administration.
In an anonymous piece called “The Sources of Soviet Conduct” that appeared in Foreign Affairs in 1947, CFR study group member George Kennan coined the term “containment”.
The CFR study group devised an expanded study group called “Americans for Eisenhower” to increase his chances for the presidency. Eisenhower would later draw many Cabinet members from CFR ranks and become a CFR member himself. His primary CFR appointment was Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. Dulles gave a public address at the Harold Pratt House in New York City in which he announced a new direction for Eisenhower’s foreign policy: “There is no local defense which alone will contain the mighty land power of the communist world. Local defenses must be reinforced by the further deterrent of massive retaliatory power.”
In November 1979, while chairman of CFR, David Rockefeller became embroiled in an international incident when he and Henry Kissinger, along with John J. McCloy and Rockefeller aides, persuaded President Jimmy Carter through the State Department to admit the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, into the US for hospital treatment for lymphoma. This action directly precipitated what is known as the Iran hostage crisis and placed Rockefeller under intense media scrutiny (particularly from The New York Times) for the first time in his public life.

“...but for Trump’s allegations of a deep state, stolen elections, etc., that man wouldn’t be dead.”
Contrary to Psycho Joe, I expect that we are going to find that this Robertson was being egged on by FBI agents and informers on social media.
Scar-bros face is so compact on his head.
Eyes to lips is close, and all below the head midline.
It’s actually how one would draw a child’s face, and a big part of the original Mickey Mouse sketch creations.
Compare his layout to Horse Face Mika.
Sorry, I just find them both very creepy.
The WEF has way more influence on the world sadly then the CFR ever had.
“Joe’s just another Bahnee Fwank look alike and wannabe. I don’t waste time with his psychobabble.”
I think his twin is Beaker from the Muppets.
Gee Joe, I don’t remember you making that claim about Biden when 13 service members were killed in the Kabul attack........
Mental illness abounds.
People are responsible for their own selves.
You threaten any President, you are going to get a visit from serious people.
This guy might not have “deserved” getting shot, but he was stepping in that direction.
How the game is played.
A politician has an intern problem. He head stomps her and hires Mr. Wolf M.E. with a history of being a fixer.
Everyone in congress understands the killing was justified. (hint: it’s a criminal enterprise, she got whacked)
That’s all there is to the story.
He killed her, covered it up, and was banished from the field by the club to avoid making the complicit FBI look bad.
However, Joe was allowed to work the concession stand on the clubs behalf.
You’re right. I never noticed that.
See, now that have completely lost it - everybody knows it was Reagan’s fault.
Listening to Scarborough is like listening Biden and Harris at the same time.
…as true as the intern he killed in his office …
Hunter Biden was on the grassy knoll!
