Morning Joe Trashes Trump Mex Trip: ‘Fringe, Alt-Right Candidate’ Who ‘Choked’

Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Like Bulgarian and Ukrainian Olympic judges back in Soviet Union days who gave American ice skaters a crummy score after a strong performance, on today’s Morning Joe Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough totally trashed Donald Trump on his visit with the Mexican president.

For not raising the issue of who would pay for the wall, Scarborough screamed “he choked! I can’t stand people that choke under pressure!” Brzezinski was reluctant to discuss the trip at all, dismissing Trump as a “fringe, alt-right Republican candidate . . . let’s not pretend this is some sort of foreign policy discussion. This is stupidity.”

I believe she announced she is going next week.

Watch how the media fawns over her visit, and how statesman like she is, and how deals were made, and immigration is going to be solved by this wonderful statesman woman who has been in government for over 30 years, and knows the ropes and knows how to get deals done!

[pgkdan]

Trump’s success is in direct inverse proportion to the negative reactions coming from cretins like Joe and Mika. He hit it out of the park! With the bases loaded!

[riri]

These people are insane.

[oh8eleven]

He not only sounded presidential in his tone and demeanor, but the content - his actual words and message - was superb.
Deport the criminal illegals immediately; no amnesty for any illegals; end sanctuary cities; extend the wall.
win-win-win-win

It’s a ridiculous talking point. The really important aspect is building the wall. Who pays for it is secondary. Trump knows how to negotiate, and politics is really just negotiating on a large scale.

When negotiating, rule one is to always ask for more than what you really want or realistically expect to get. That way you can back down a bit and still get what is really important, and at the same time the other side doesn’t feel like they got screwed and will be more accepting of the result.

Trump did this brilliantly. He has both Mexico and the MSM essentially accepting that the wall will be built. If he caved on the issue of who pays, so what? The wall gets built and that was the important issue to Trump. If the left and their MSM toadies want to focus on the payment issue, that just means Trump won this negotiation.

the polls have been turning on Hillary and she has to do something.... “hold a press conference, for crying out loud...

---

Hillary can’t risk a press conference. A couple of camera flashes and it would trigger a seizure.

[goldstategop]

Hillary has no answer for questions she can’t vet. She needs to be in control.

Her friendly media lapdogs have been running interference for her but she isn’t running a national campaign.

And as the old saw has it, you can’t beat something with nothing.

[vladimir998]

“They sound like partisan hacks that ignore facts even when they are smacking them in the face.”

That’s often the case. They are somewhat mercurial. Sometimes they are spot on - rarely - but sometimes. Most of the time they are absolutely clueless twits.

[Mouton]

“that just means Trump won this negotiation.”

Trump framed this issue so well they both get to say they won.

The critical part of his comments on stage was it is in both countries interest they stop the illegal immigration, drug transport and movement of guns (Yeah fast and furious). Who cares for who pays for the wall, it is a throw away to get the deal done.

Yes Hitlery has no choice but to follow and after her BS platitudes, nothing will be resolved or agreed.

[Ted Grant]

He serves his liberal masters well.

[dragonblustar]

MSNBC choked when they hired Scarborough. A mouth piece for the the moronic DC elites and his side kick, the peroxide avenger.

Brzezinski was reluctant to discuss the trip at all, dismissing Trump as a “fringe, alt-right Republican candidate . . . let’s not pretend this is some sort of foreign policy discussion. This is stupidity.”

"This is stupidity” aptly describes Morning Joe. Joe is really, really worried that Trump will be successful and a great president, in spite of Joe's wild, unsupported, and inaccurate views of Donald Trump and his campaign.

Is someone paying Joe to be stupid? He reminds me of Baghdad Bob. Joe is not alone.

[DoughtyOne]

To this level of Leftist, everyone is alt-Right.

They are so fringe, so smack up against the farthest Leftist end of the spectrum, that everyone who is centrally located with decent values appears to be far far right.

From where the Left is, the center looks like Earth from Pluto.

All Conservatives advocate for is normal centrist values.

Wow has the Left every wigged out more anywhere on the planet?

Short of Hitler, Mao, Pol pot, or the USSR, no.  And this must frustrate them, not being a dedicated to the cause as these sterling examples of humanity.

Shut up creepy commie faux media goons! Do you realize how much moola will be saved when US re-balances trade with Mexico? Sends back all the criminal illegal aliens, moved the illegals off of the social service benefits! El Presidente knows what stopping the large flow of drug money & & human trafficking money into Mexico means. You bet he knows!

[COBOL2Java]

Did mourning Schmoe play the banjo the way he did in Deliverance? Did he tell us about the dead female staffer? If not who cares what he gets paid to say?

In every war, there's a dedicated team of people who do Intel. It's understandable that those outside the discipline think it's not worth the time and dismiss the effort with "Who cares what xxx gets paid to say!", but trust me, we've got to know the enemy.

[JayAr36]

Nothing partisan here. Must be nice to have your show written by the DNC every day, no show prep at all.

[COBOL2Java]

The only people that care about this are the five people that watch the show and the people who like to talk about what happens on the show, which actually has a wider audience than the show itself.

I have given multiple media outlets no end of grief for even covering this crap.

Please stop. Nobody cares except your blood pressure.

Their performance won’t work. Joe and Mika Clinton working hard to keep their jobs.

Exactly right. This is coming down from senior management.

Remember Hillary’s last visit to Mexico?
When she betrayed her total ignorance and lack of background prep on a staged photo op to visit “ Our Lady of Guadalupe”
