No fewer than six times in the opening minutes of today’s Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough furiously attacked President Trump’s White House ballroom plans, branding it the “Marie Antoinette ballroom” while contrasting it with Americans struggling to afford groceries, gas, and rent.
The historical parallel Scarborough invited is unmistakable: Marie Antoinette’s reputation for extravagance amid public hardship was followed by the French Revolution’s bloody climax -- and her bloody end.
Note in the painting, the guy doing his best Kathy Griffin imitation — proudly holding up the severed head. Was Scarborough slyly doing his Queen of Hearts impression?
Liberal media figures have spent years accusing Donald Trump of inciting violence with rhetoric. Yet here was Scarborough on national television hammering a luxury-versus-the-people narrative straight out of 1789 France.
Someone should ask Scarborough exactly what kind of latter-day Jacobins he’s trying to stir up with his inflammatory analogy.
Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Hey, Joe, why don’t you blast the billions spent on NFL stadiums and other sports arenas, which increasingly cater to the well-off who can still afford tickets?
I’ll bet they will serve very good cake in the ballroom.
Some enterprising lawyer might find a way to launch a class action lawsuit naming not just media figures like Scarborough, but the executives of those networks personally, as inciting violence against the American nation.
Joe Scarface needs his a$$ kicked every day the sun rises. What a scumbag!!!!!
MIKA BRZEZINSKI: No, he’s talking about the ballroom. He’s got his plans.
Joe Scarborough looks like the kind of person who has never stepped foot in a ballroom in his life.
I has been a long time since I listened to “The Curse of Marie Antoinette”

Scarborough is so eaten up with jealousy that he’s not in Trump’s inner circle...or outer circle...or any circle.
It’s not Trump’s LOL
Inflation skyrocketed because of Biden’s gross, wasteful spending. Democrats raised the cost of living through their destructive green policies and socialist entitlement programs. Waste, fraud and abuse are rampant in Democrat programs. Inflation has moderated under Trump. It is intellectually dishonest for Joe to blame Trump.
Funny how Scarborough is suddenly concerned about guillotines.
Who you and meeka fluffn’ this week? Joe scar’bro’, joe biteme? Both mentally challenged.
He might be in one of those other kinds of circles. The kind where they wear black robes.
I want to find a way to get invited to a gathering in that ballroom
That buffoon
I’m sorry I ever stayed up to watch his show back in thr fay.
I have a feeling that IF LORI K. WERE ALIVE, she might enjoy an event at the Ballroom. But she’s dead, Joe.
“”struggling to afford groceries, gas, and rent.””
The more people hear that, the more they are prone to take measures to remedy it - does he not understand that? Of course, he does!!! Word for word is repeated over and over...That’s what radicalizing does to people..
Perhaps one of Kamala’s Venn diagrams though?
