Would the right forgive Joe Scarborough if he became conservative again?

Posted on 07/31/2023 1:00:16 PM PDT by TakebackGOP

It is concerning to me how easily the right has accepted Megyn Kelly back after she went over to the left for a few years. Other commentators and politicians were accepted back during Trump's Presidency, who then stabbed Trump in the back after Nov. 3rd. Here is a quote from Megyn regarding here interview with Alex Jones, "But she said it left many wondering how Jones and his “outrageous conspiracy theories” have the respect of millions including Trump, who she said has elevated Jones by praising him and appearing on his show." I have no doubt that conservatives would accept Joe Scarborough back after he's been a liberal for 15 years on MSNBC.

Joe was never a Republican or conservative. He was a Democrat then and is still a Democrat now.

Conservatism is a belief, not an expedient. Scarborough has already demonstrated than in terms of beliefs he’s basically a whore.

And until proven otherwise, I assume every Congressmen is just like Scarbarough. They have no core beliefs, but say that they think will get them elected.

No. He’s been a total dipshit for at least 12-13 years. Totally parroting left wing idiocy. It’s one thing if it started more recently and he figured out he was wrong but this basically goes back to the Bush years. Plus he’s married to a lunatic.

“He was never really a Republican and certainly not a conservative. He fooled voters in the Florida panhandle in the 90s,”

This is puzzling. I think there must be something we don’t know.

What indications were there indicating he had us fooled?

One day of skeptical credit for each day of ‘conversion’ time served.

It’ll take awhile, if ever . . .

People need should realize people like Joe are ultimately sociopathic whores who play whatever role they think benefits them the most personally. Most of them have few, if any, standards or beliefs outside what’s good for them.

Some people change how they think, others just change how they dress, speak or draw attention to themselves.
I get the impression Meg Kelly is being who she’s always been, a sharp, skeptical reporter with a sense of humor who has the added advantage of looking glamorous.

I’ll never forgive him because he looks like a young Barney Frank.

No! You don’t become conservative again. You do admit all the wrong things you said and did. Then you let God decide. We don’t judge. We just shake our heads in disgust.

Not as a news reporter. Once the Blue pill is taken, all creditability vanishes.

Scarborough has a good gig. A public platform, large audience, the fawning admiration of leftists, and great compensation. Why would he voluntarily give it up? Plus his friends now appear to be on the winning side of history.

Megyn Kelly was fired by her new liberal friends after she went left. Once booted out by the left she had no where else to go than to shift right. Scarborough today is in the comfort zone and has no concern about being booted.

Most people who are comfortable stay where they are. Humans though are adaptable. When their existence is threatened, they embrace whatever change is necessary. If you see Scarborough moving right, you’ll know he has fear in his heart.
