Morning Joe Meacham Doubts Trump, Unlike Nixon, Will Follow Rule of Law "In the End"

How much does the MSM hate Donald Trump? So much so that it is making a hero of the president that–prior to Trump–the liberal media most loved to hate.

On today’s Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough and panelist Jon Meacham praised Nixon for complying with a Supreme Court ruling and turning over secretly-recorded tapes, even though Nixon knew that meant the end of his presidency.

In contrast, Meacham darkly surmised:

“I don’t know that we’re with a president now who will follow the rule of law, as even Richard Nixon did, in the end.”

Who will be the next Morning Joe roundtable member who will be banned for harassing women?

Who will Joe marry next, and who might he kill?

Good questions.

I can only speculate, but could Meacham be suggesting that Trump would refuse to leave office even if impeached and convicted?

I don’t know either.

It just seemed like he started with a false premise, leaving us to attack his straw man.

Then again, making stuff is part of their core. So...
