On Tuesday’s Morning Joe, the panel rode to the defense of Jimmy Kimmel, embracing his claim that his “expectant widow” line about Melania Trump was merely an age-gap “joke”— then turning on Donald Trump and the First Lady for objecting.
[snip]
Kimmel insisted the remark was harmless:
“It was a very light roast joke about the fact that he’s almost 80 and she’s younger than I am… It was not, by any stretch of the definition, a call to assassination.”
Morning Joe bought that framing wholesale. Co-host Willie Geist dismissed the backlash as “so much bad faith,” suggesting critics were simply trying to get Kimmel fired.
Host Joe Scarborough sneered at the reaction as “such crocodile tears.” He said "crocodile tears" three times.

If a conservative described “Dr.” Jill as an “expectant widow?”
Ping to Liberal Media criticism list.
Joe coming in hot, going the wrong way getting himself DQd.
This is moving along.
That would at least make sense because Joe is in poor health and is very old.
If one made a pun of "Mourning Joe" about her being dead, he'd probably find a far different stance to blather on about....
The only real question is will Scarborough ultimately end up with life in prison, or will he be processed in a non-Article III court.
Seems like there is a lot of tacit approval of the events Saturday night. And some extreme disappointment by many. Sad days.
Sad. Try again, Heinrich.
Lori Klausutis was unable to comment, with Joe.
Let a right wing comedian make a joke about Michelle Obama becoming a widow and two days later her husband gets shot and see how murdering Joe responds then..by the way Joe, why did you kill Lori
Mika looks hot.
Kimmel is an incurable crasshole.
His intern Laurie Klausutis is unavailable for comment.
Maybe Joe can explain the death of Lori Klausutis, a 28-year-old staffer who died in Joe Scarborough’s Florida congressional office in 2001.
They’re all sickening.
I’m sure he’s all for a whole slew of dead intern jokes?
How many in the audience of 10 cares what Morning Joe Says?
Morning Joe aka Moron Joe
Let’s talk abt the Intern that was found DEAD in Joe’s Congressional Office. Ever wonder why he left congress? Maybe BECAUSE he KILLED A YOUNG INTERN. may not be true that he killed her but I have FREEDOM OF SPEECH right and they lie abt Trump all the time.
The part abt the dead intern found in his office IS true. He doesn’t like to talk abt it. Wonder why.
Too bad Joe and Mika will not leave.
