Scarborough Admits: Voters Cared More About Inflation Than My Wailing About 'Fascism'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

It took a stinging election defeat for the truth to sink in with Joe Scarborough. And this morning, he was forced to yield to reality.

For all his endless--and we do mean endless-wailing about "fascism," and Mika's fearmongering on abortion rights, on today's Morning Joe Scarborough admitted that voters cared less about that, and more about the price of gasoline and groceries. Scarborough wondered out loud to John Avlon:

"I talked a lot over two years about fascist rhetoric . . . There were threats of retribution, there was the issue of women's reproductive choices and health, rubbing up against, pounding up against, the price of groceries, the price of gasoline. How do you balance that when, obviously, what voters said was, we care more about the price of gas and we care more about the price of groceries?"

And guess what else, Joe. They care more about Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson and a million other podcasts and shows than your clownish Morning Joe. Hopefully whoever buys MSN-Bargain Basement-C shuts this pathetic freakshow down.

No, voters mostly realized the MSM's histrionic hand-wringing about Trump's supposed fascism was fake.

The Demonrat Media needs to focus on learning the difference between their arsehole and a hole in the ground.

Media: There is no inflation. Joe Biden has given us a great economy.
Media: Turns out the most important issue this time was that awful inflation.

Joetard should explain what fascism happen in Trump’s first term, and what plausible threat of it exists in his 2nd term. Hint for Joetard, a different political point of view doesn’t make you a fascist or Hitler.

Hope MSNBC gets flushed down the toilet soon.
